***Official*** NRL 2008 Thread

Where will Brisbane play if they finish 4th? And why would Melbourne play on the same day as the AFL grand final? Defies logic for mine.

Not sure about the Friday night (think it is booked) and the Melbourne Victory are booked in for their A-League game on the Sunday. It was a error from the NRL.

 

[Mister Wright]

Surely we can't have a weekend of NRL where Brisbane aren't favoured with either a Friday or Sunday game?

Next time I drive past Parra stadium, I'm gonna call in and ask for the money back I've spent supporting these douches all these years.

****s.

Lol. What a load of BS. Get 25000+ regularly to your home games and see if you can demand when you get to play your games.

Turns out we wanted game against the Knights to be Sunday for a more 'family friendly' time slot, but Ch9 wanted it on Friday night.

 

[Craig]

Looking at going to the GF this year, regardless who is in. Would be awesome.

Putting a bet on the Sharks to win at $13 i believe good odds if it is

 

[ripper868]

C'mon mate, everyone knows Lang Park never opens for League on a Saturday. I think they even have scheduled ground maintenance there for Saturday evenings.

Conspiracy!!!!!

Err, Sharks won't win a comp, the Shire's dire....

Only because Broncos games rate higher than other team in the competition. Ch9 don't show games on Saturday.

My dad finally managed to put my bet on for the Sharkies to my disappointment though they've being bumped down to 11 dollars

 

[howardj]

I reckon Brisbane are the best value bet at present.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I reckon Brisbane are the best value bet at present.

Yeah they've been playing such convincing football of late.

Oh wait...

 

[howardj]

...best value, I didn't say favourites.

plus, august is so overrated in terms of judging who will the comp.

See 2005 and 2006.

$14 at Sports Acumen if you want to put some more on.

People offering Melbourne at $1.95 on Betfair. That to me is the best value.

 

[Simon]

Whatever money you can get on Melbourne is the best value, cant see them not winning this comp.

 

[Craig]

With regards to Wade McKinnon's spitting charge, was 3 weeks soft or should the **** have got more?

 

[Johnners]

Don't reckon he should have been charged to start with.

 

[Simon]

he spat in the direction of the touchie, maybe. Unless they could prove he was trying to spit on him then he shouldnt have been banned at all. Was all or nothing for mine, 10 weeks for spitting on an official or zero for doing nothing wrong, WTF is 3 weeks?

 

[NUFAN]

Should cop a fine at the worst.

Really am sick of the judiciary system.

Quality players are missing matches at a time where the NRL needs as many stars as possible.

 

[pinchy81]

Did Gallen end up going to the judisery? Haven't heard any news about his charge yet
