Rugby League (NRL & English Super League)

[AussieBoy]

thought i might start a NRL forum, seems most of the rugby fans are more towards Union, im a bit of both played 12yrs of Union but prob seem to watch more NRL on the tele seein its the more dominant code of Eastern Australia

going the game of the 09 NRL season so far tonight at the SFS, Tigers vs Eels, Benji Marshall vs Jarrad Hayne both in the form of their careers, so excited gonna be a pearler, siked for it, should be a sell out crowd

[xbrokendownx]

Looking forward to both the Sea Eagles beating the Storms and Hayne beating Marshall's ass.

Actually it's tonight. But I agree they will play the match of their season. I'm betting for a Dragons win but only just. This is a make or break game for the broncos because their for and against is ridiculously low.

I would get into league more if I can actually watch more games. It's hard enough getting union matches here.

haha yeah i realised after is said that, that it was tonight. i think its gona be a game with a lot of points being scored, because the broncos have had terrible defence lately, but they scored a shit load on the panthers, and i think they know that, and wont worry too much about defending as long as they can outscore the dragons, which will be hard, obviously.

This is where p2p really works its magic. http://www.myp2p.eu/
That's a p2p live stream site where you can watch most sports, live. It's not the best quality but you can also search through google for better ones.

That's another site as well.

Like I said, the Dragons will win, but only just. Broncos will fancy their chances as an attacking team, but in the end league matches are mostly won with the better defending team and a good offense is usually a bonus. That was what the Sea Eagles did last year and they won.

i totally agree.
although remember the storm lost smith for the final last year

[Pawan1993]

Yeah, but even if they did lose Smith, the whole season belonged to Manly and their defense. With Brett Stewart coming back this week or next week, Manly will jump to the top four easy. And the match for the best playmaker this season has begun. My guess is that Benji will win but I'm hoping for a Eels victory.

[The Boat]

ahh yeah you guys will get the eels tigers game and I'm assuming youre refering to hayne as the other playmayer, while I wouldnt really consider him a 'traditional playmaker' his form has just been outstanding this season. watching broncos atm, and although dragons are in the lead broncos are all over them.

[Pawan1993]

Yeah, Hayne was the other playmaker and they're winning 14-8. broncos as well 12-2. brilliant day for sports today. In NRL Eels are leading 14-8, Broncos leading 12-2 (both unexpected) and England are bowling brilliantly after Australia bowled them out for a disappointing 332. And with all this my tv aerial is dying (it's an indoor one).

[Akissforher]

go the panthers? lol

[ESundy36]

I went to a North Queensland Cowboys/Canterbury Bulldogs game back in 2002. Probably one of the more exciting sporting events I have been to even though the Cowboys were terrible and the Bulldogs were, I believe, atop the league. I also remember the Bulldogs staying in our hotel and doing some training in the pool the day before the match.

[The Boat]

cant beleive broncos won, they played amazing, dragons forwards werent even in the contest.

Wow the Dragons went tryless. Only a penalty was scored. And then you see the Eels just beating the Tigers. Can't wait till tomorrow, Manly vs Storms. I'm hoping for a Manly win. Storm thrashing if Brett Stewart's playing.

game was amazing!!!! was good to really enjoy an awesome match as a neutral supporter, the game could produced about 10 moments for the end of season highlight reels.. Benji did some amazing stuff, no look behind back flick passes... and then Hayne in 2nd half had the ball on a string, best player in the world, that chip n chase, he has the golden touch... so stoked i saw it live

[Broden Terry]

Hoping for a Titans victory tomorrow! :nod:

[Pawan1993]

On a unions note, the Wallabies are pretty much out of the Tri-Nations cup. And its been a good win for the Knights.

I've been a passionate sharks supporter for 15 years and this has been the most pathetic, drama ridden season i've delt with!


So shit!

[Broden Terry]

Secured ourselves a home final with that victory over the Sharks :-)

yeah me too, im devo, been wanting the season to end weeks ago (since barrett was out for season pretty much) so looking forward to round 1 2010, all we can do know is enjoy the rest of the games and hope for some entertaining stuff like friday night

you know your teams sucks when you get beat by 10 and youre stoked, how sad. haha

in saying that prob will cheer on the Titans for the rest of the season now, i seem to like the cut of the their jib

Im hoping Titans too, Presto and Rogers!

Haha yeah 8 straight losses, they'll get the spoon! they are just pathetic! i lost interest in the game itself aswell in 2009...

[Pawan1993]

Go the Sea Eagles. I'm hoping they get in to the top 4 with Melbourne missing out. Minor premiership will go to the doggies while the premiership will go to Manly. I'm gonna get hate for that but who cares.

[Pawan1993]

God, can Hayne be beaten? I really wish that they vs Manly in the finals series some time soon. Really want to see Hayne go against Brett Stewart. I reckon the finals will be Eels and Manly with the better fullback winning it for the team 3 tries to 4.

[Broden Terry]

Can't be long left surely? Hang on Titans!

Edit: It was fairly comfortable in the end. Twelve point victory :-)

[AussieBoy]

Great first round of footy with the Roosters beating Souffs in a thriller against their local derby rivals
And my poor Sharks getting smashed in what looks like another long season for them

[AussieBoy]

I used to perma live in Warrington, England. Wolves, or Wire as they are known locally, weren't as good as they are now back then. In fact, it seems there's some sort of correlation between their success and me moving away.
