Fair enough, I'd be happy with Lewis on the wing, Folau's wing, as well as Lyon in the centers. Lyon as captain > Gidley.

Not saying Lewis is a great defender either, he's overrated by Gus and whoever else, but he could probably do the job on the wing.
Lyon isn't a rep player's arse hole mate. You can't pick and choose your games at that level. And he's a **** too.

North Qld with a Parra-like performance here so far.

Lewis should be in the backrow or nowhere. He hasn't played out wide in years, and he's in great form at Lock. Not to mention there are better options there too. Jennings, Lawrence, Morris etc.

And he's not overrated outside 5/8 either..

Couldnt agree more... Lewis on the wing is INSANE

Warriors have just given the Panthers a touch up in the NYC - 56 -10. Ouch.
Better looking scoreline in the game that matters though :)

Really happy with our progress. Tigers next week should be a cracker and will give us a good indication of where we are this year.

I hope so. I'm heading down to Sydney next weekend with my Panthers supporting mate, looking forward to the match at CUA. :)

I'll be at that game too, heading to Sydney for golf on Saturday and we're stopping at Penrith on the way back home to watch it.

Yeah love CUA tbh. Nice little ground. The more the merrier too :)

Nothing going right for the Sharkies here.

I've only been there once, wasn't a terrible ground. Certaintly better than Toyota Park and Olympic Park.

Cool! Sounds like a good day, I think it's the match of the round (although the Roosters vs Dragons Anzac Clash is always big).

I've never watched a League match in Sydney before. Actually heading down for a weekend of NRL and drinking:

Friday Bulldogs vs Broncos
Saturday Panthers vs Tigers
Sunday Dragons vs Roosters
Monday Manly vs Titans

Yeah Olympic Park was a shocker, you knew about when a strong breeze came through.

So you are taking in all those games? Wow, I'm so envious. I was going to go down to Melbourne and watch Storm v Warriors at their new stadium, but I decided to clear a debt with my best mate instead.

Most I've done in a weekend is 3 games. Will also be going to Raiders vs Souths on Sunday.

Yeah mate, we are going to all 4 games, should be great fun!

I wonder what the record is for the most NRL matches watched over a round, I'm guessing 5. :blink:

That could only be possible if there were back to back games at one ground?
Nah; you could get a Friday night, Sat arvo and night, Sunday arvo and Monday night.

If you struck it lucky, you might be able to snare a public holiday on the Tues or Thursday, adding an extra game that you could possibly go to.

Sounds fun Nufan.

Back in either the 70s or 80s, they had a "footy-a-thon" at the SCG - every game of the round was there and played Saturday, Saturday night and Sunday. There would have been some tragics who no doubt watched them all.

The blue and gold juggernaut has stirred :ph34r:

Absolutely disgraceful call there, completely behind Ghould. WTF a sin bin for a strip? Parra will be dudded if they lose cause of that.

EDIT: LOL!!! 10 mins for regulation penalties now.
