The Official NRL Thread (3 Viewers)

Since I don't see a 09 league thread, I'll just start one.

Trials are getting underway very soon and it'll give you an indication of how your team MIGHT play pout in 09.

Predictions for 2009?

 

[Mozza91]

Knights to make top 4
NSW 2-1
Mullen to play at least one game in the halves for NSW
Broncos to make top 4 despite losing Bennett
Australia to dominate NZ in Anzac Test
Gallop to 'resign' before seasons end
Top tryscorer-Nightingale
Top Pointscorer-Thurston
Premiers-Knights
Wooden Spoon-Rabbitohs

by the way, there is an official rugby league thread alreadddddy.

but hey.

like the predictions above. agree with all except knights one.

what i want to know is do you reckon the sharks can go well again? or will they choke as always?

i think with the coach they can, but with losing kimmorley, nutley etc, they'll struggle for depth of players. [not sure if that's the right word, but eh.]

watched the 18s trial cronulla v wests yesterday. got me psyched for the upcoming season =]].

Depends if Barrett can lead the team.

NSW 2-1

i wish i could believe this will happen. unfortunately queensland still have a biggish lead in talent, and all other things being equal i think they'll get the four-peat this year. that'll be humiliating.

predictions:
-bulldogs to rebound and make the 8
-rabbitohs to fail miserably, despite the legions of celebrities that rusty drags to their games
-gus gould to whine a lot about everything
-premiers: god, who knows. i'll take a punt and say the dragons.

I go for the Sharks, but you never know what you're gana get from them.

They could take on the top teams and then get absolutely owned by the bottom teams.

They can win low scoring games but struggle to score points because they've replaced the overlap killer with a complete nuffy also they have no speed whatsoever
