Official NRL Telstra Premiership Round 2 Teamlists and Gameday thread

[Roll the Bones]

Heard one of the wanker commentators mention that one of those teams only have 3 games against top 8 sides in the first 12 rounds. Didn't catch if it was the Gronks or Cowgirls.

PS 3 games out of 12, is that even possible?

It was The Cows. vs Canberra, Sharks and Roosters in first 12 games.

Heard them say Cowboys first 8 games only play 1 team from last year's top 8 and that was Raider last week

Fox or channel 9?

That seems fair and legit.....

When will people realise that this back yard sport is more scripted than WWE and just a betting product and not an actual competition?

Yeh Cows have it easy too, Nein was talking about the Broncs and Kayo about the Cows I'm guessing.

Mostly Saturdays and a couple Friday nights.

When will a miracle happen and we get good draws early in the season, home games and fair ref decisions

Probably after our next GF win when there are forced to baby the premiers.

Meanwhile, we get 2 F2A games this year.

Broncos currently 1st, Bulldogs 17th. For a Bulldogs fan living in Brisbane, this is a f'en nightmare. Hopefully it doesn't last long.

Broncos rate on Fridays. Think they have asked for other days & still get Friday nights

Atm it seems further and further away.

The top teams are getting better and we can't match it with them in a fair few facets of the game.

Fortunes change week to week for teams but our lack of go forward and skill and footy smarts and on field leadership and control just doesn't seem too improve enough. We are well off the pace of the frontrunners still.

That's after the round has finished.

But, we have Gus to save us. He told us so.

He's the closest thing to the miracle worker we need that we will ever have.

Drinkwater is going to be having a few weeks, maybe a month or 2 on the sidelines. He broke someone's jaw and only got sin binned. Flanagan put a finger on another player, and also got sin binned. Seems fair and equal.

Unless you have a top quality half and or full back who can create you are absolutely wasting your time in this league.

Yes we are so lacking. Got nothing to compete with the rest of the comp atm.

It’s a fkn rigged competition until we win and then I’ll say it not LOL other than that I’m so fkn jealous watching Reece Walsh at the back for the Broncos. I still cant believe he signed for $350k a season for 3 seasons.
