Should never tip against your team. Having never done it, I'm not sure how it feels, but I'd imagine it would feel dirty.

Did once, back in 99 I think it was when we had that horror start to the season, was against the Sharks, second time we played them in four weeks or something, we nearly won had it not been for a missed sideline conversion, so I never did it again.

Tipped against my team this weekend tbh.

Was a win-win situation really. If Broncos had of won, we get 2 comp points, but since they didn't I get a tipping point.

After watching them against Storm, figured they had no chance against a quality team like the Dogs.

Don't often tip for my team TBF. Partly because we've been poo since well..... since before I was born!

Roosters!

Came on here to whinge about them bombing about 20 tries but they hit the lead aws. Not gonna get my hopes up though...they know how to lose.

Unlucky for the Roosters, when you're down you find a way to lose like they did tonight.
There were positive signs for them though, Symonds, Jones and SKD look pretty potent on the left side and they could really build something there. The return of Cherrington was impressive too, plus they actually looked like they put in tonight, a win is around the corner for them.

Wasn't Manly's fault tbh. Penrith were shocking, I know they are missing a few players but after the promise they were showing a month ago I think they are regressing.

Yeah I don't know what is going on but that was horrible. Didn't see our error rate at the end there but it must have been massive. Can't blame the fact you can't hold on to the damn football on the loss of Jennings and Lewis.

We were dire but Manly weren't particularly hot either. If we had've held onto the ball (gee, imagine that) and had the odd thing go our way we'd have won there.

And I'm sorry, a footy team in all pink is absolutely ridiculous. Gonna blame the loss on that :p

Also are the QLDers having a laugh when they suggest Blair is a smokey for SOO2? The guy is not only one of the fattest centres around, he's slow, misses tackles regularly, makes bad reads and can't hold on to the ball. He's not even in our top 4 centres.

Blair will never play origin, just goes to show we have guns>daylight>replacements in the outside backs.

Think Panthers completion rate was around 53% which I would suggest would be the lowest from any team in a game this season.

This is why im so sceptical of Campese.
As a supposed top quality half, he should be able to take the game by the scruff of the neck and get his team home. He never seems to be able to do this on a consistent basis... I have a feeling he will be missing when the origin squad is announced 2morrow...
