Very confident Ponga will leave the Knights.
That team is a walking disaster.Titans are also not very good. Read somewhere the other day that no coach has gone on to head coach at a another NRL side after leaving them.
Roosters another awful side and that win in Round 2 was a fluke. Still not convinced on Penrith's chances of a 5 peat but a much needed win.
Reece Walsh is the most overrated player in the NRL. Meanwhile Halasima is the next big thing, also be typical if he's somehow at the Storm or Panthers in a few years.

So let me get this straight — Galvin, a fully grown man offered a contract at a million bucks a year to play professional rugby league, is now claiming he’s being bullied and that his workplace is unsafe? This is the same country that sent teenagers to Gallipoli with rifles and tin helmets. Now we’ve got footy players with sports psychologists and media teams crumbling over harsh words and sideways glances of teammates in the sheds. Mate, if this is your idea of trauma, you wouldn’t last five minutes in a real job. Soft fluffybunny.

The media have always had it in for the Tigers, so now that they've finally stood up for themselves and tried to force thos locker room cancer out of the club with his stupid management team, sections of the media have come up with this bullying claim when he and his team have done nothing but belittle the Tigers as a club for the last season and a bit, and now his management team have gone with the narrative of him getting bullied now that the Tigers have told him to fuck off.
Good riddance, Parra or the Dogs can have him.

Funny how the return of 1 player can all of a sudden make a team go from looking like spoon candidates to now looking like an 8 side like the Eels are right now.
-
Mitch Moses hard carries the Eels.
Mental weekend all around
First St George go to Brookvale and hang on for a win
Then the Bulldogs blank another side
Melbourne were beating the piss out of the Dolphins in Brisbane until they weren't, and the Dolphins score 40 unanswered points.
Saturday the Wahs kick a 50m penalty goal to win in GP
Penrith bounce by hammering the Roosters
Canberra continue on their merry way, while it's clearly not going well on the GC
Newcastle managed 14 points which ius huge for them and still get beat by 20 because this week they forgot to tackle
And of course Mitch Moses returns like he's fucking league jesus and gets the eels off the mat.The NRL is always pretty close, but this year is quite ridiculous.
-
Upsets everywhere but in a strange way you could see some of these happening even if unlikely
-
Weird seeing the Warriors sitting in the top 4, as while they’ve won some games, they are hardly setting the world on fire.
Probably says a lot about the rest of the teams who are also very inconsistent.Big game for the Warriors this week, if they want to be serious top 4 contenders they need to put away the Knights who are really struggling to put enough points on the board to win games.

You'd do well to lose to the Knights these days.
-
Dylan Lucas is back, he is the sort of attacking foil that will allow Ponga multiple options rather than just one and have such shot Newcastle down subsequently easily, they havent won a game since he was injured.
Yes we are favourites, but this also smells like a potential boil over -
With CNK extending his deal that probably puts an end to Ponga rumours unless CNK wont be fullback moving forward
