Broncos pretty much home here, doing enough to win in attack and shutting down the Raiders well in defence.

I never said that you would admit you team sucks. I said you know that the Knights are better than the Eels.

But that actually isn't true either. The Eels lineup on paper >>>>> The Knights lineup. This season, yes the Knights have been better, but the Eels are in a form slump. Who knows when they will snap out of it? Could be this weekend.

Too true. The Parramatta Eels are like that though, we usually have a form slump near the end of the season and then just scrape into the final, make it to the semi-finals or something and then choke, we are like that. Having said that though the Eels usually snap out of it within the last three or four rounds, which is soon, isn't it? So I wouldn't at all suprised if this is the round that we hit back and have a late surge towards the finals. I also agree that our line up looks alot better on paper then other sides, to be honest though Michael Hagan is a dumbarse and stuffed up any hopes of us making the Finals this year. God I hate him.

Can't really see that happening this season tbh. There is more happening at the club then meets the eye. Major problems behind the scenes imo. Best to look to next season.

Agreed With The Above. Love the try scored at the end there too. Lockyer has such an excellent vision of the game in my opinion, that is why he is the current world best. Kemp played well too, top job from him, for a sec there I didn't think he was going to get to the ball for a bit,such speed.

Kemp is developing a wonderful combination with the Brisbane halves. He always seems to make the right decision. Great buy for the Warriors.

If Canberra sack Todd Carney he should be deregistered by the NRL. And if he is sacked and waltzes straight into a rival club for next season, I will most probably take my money and support elsewhere.

Haha, Julian, you REALLY think you'll support a club OTHER than Canberra? The second line doesn't make sense! As in stop supporting leauge or Canberra?

No way I would ever support another team. I mean different sport. Or different comp. NRL are backing Canberra though, so I am happy regardless.

Yeah my post is confusing. Never would or could support an opposing club. I meant I'd possibly be finished with the NRL if they let Carney play for another team next season as it would show great favouritism to the other club. But as above post, they will deregister him if he gets the sack.

Sonny Bill Williams was the only one that could probably make a decent tackle, since they lost a majority of their good foward pack In Willie Mason and Mark O'Meley, both of which went over to the Sydney Roosters their defence has swiftly delapidated and Sonny Bill Williams was the only one left, now that he has 'pissed off' to France to play in the French Rugby I think that the only one left in their side that can tackle is probably Luke Pattern. Still, he is fairly poor in my opinion. Braith Anasta could tackle well too in my opinion,. where did he go though? He went to the Roosters didn't he. The Sydney Roosters are now like a leech on the Canterbury Bulldogs sucking every worthy player that had a scrap of talent and skill out of there and into them.

You are such an asshat.

LOLOLOL. Andrew Ryan can't tackle to save himself can he?
