    Sure Is. You've got a srum half running with the ball,and even a stand off. I actually saw a second row forward make more than 19 metres in a game. EXCITEMENT .

    Yes, it was a great game.

    When you see James Graham play the way he does, attacking the line, out on his feet but still wanting the ball, those soft hand passes to lay on a try, leading by example. That's what I miss today at Saints, men who will give their all.

    Even if he wanted to come back, would Keiron want him??

    What a contrast to that dire Wigan Wire match. 2 knock ons in the first 40 minutes in that Roosters game... 2 knock ons in the first minute of Wigan game.
    Didn't even bother to watch the second half bored me to tears, think I'll stick to watching NRL games only from now on, different game all together.

    Big game tonight and I'm looking forward far more to Brisbane V Cowboys than getting up at 5am for Saints. I've gone with the Cowboys even though it's a Suncorp

    I've just enjoyed Warriors v Storm. I wonder how many times you will hear "Smith to Munster to Cronk, try" this season.

    This game has more intensity than an international. Some of the hits are huge

    Broncos V Cowboys,

    Brutal, Brilliant, Beautiful to watch, they are on a higher level. Nearly 48,000 in the ground, Golden Point and then the man, Thurstan does it again.

    The Broncos & the Cowboys was one of many great games this past weekend.

    Ive no idea how Melbourne are losing game, the Broncos seem to get away with some very dubious tactics

    Lucky win for Storm, great to see Billy Slater back, but then they lose Munster with a broken jaw. Great kick at the end from Smith.

    I thought Greenwood was half decent for the Gold Coast yesterday. You can tell he was a little low on confidence early and he still has the saints bad habit of taking the ball standing still when taking a hit up, but when they put him in space he looked good and even had a bit of footwork close to the defensive line

    Yep I'd go with that Bud.
    While nothing spectacular, he didn't do anything wrong either.

    Very disappointed with the Eels, first ten minutes I thought they'd run riot.

    Mate I tipped the Eels and at 12-0 I thought they were going to murder them. But credit to Gold Coast, even though they are suffering from injuries they battled to a good win there.

    I was at the match. Look like a bad injury hope he is ok. Great game to be at 14 - 12 to the storm.

    Watching Canberra V West Tigers earlier on, I'm sure the Raiders have one of the biggest packs I've ever seen and Dave Taylor looks even bigger than he did at Catalans. They've got plenty of speed out wide too and Hodgson and Whitehead continue to impress for them. I don't think Jordan Turner has made the 17 as yet.

    Regards,

    STEVO

    Best quote from the Raiders V West's game was:

    "The Raiders were over that ball like a seagull over a hot chip" !
