Hello All,

Here are my guesses at the opening lines:

SATURDAY APRIL 24
Eels v Sharks at Parramatta Stadium, 5:30PM
Sharks +4.5
Raiders v Knights at Canberra Stadium, 7:30PM
Knights +2.5
Storm v Cowboys at Olympic Park Melbourne, 7:30PM
Cowboys +6.5

SUNDAY APRIL 25
Broncos v Panthers at Suncorp Stadium, 2:30PM
Panthers +2.5
Dragons v Roosters at Aussie Stadium, 3:00PM
Dragons +1.5
Wests Tigers v Sea Eagles at Leichhardt Oval, 3:00PM
Tigers +0.5

MONDAY APRIL 26
Rabbitohs v Bulldogs at Aussie Stadium, 3:00PM
Rabbitohs +16.5

Any other ideas?

Dragons v Roosters! What a bottler of a game that should turn out to be !!

Sure will be a great game. I went to the one last year (Dragons won in a low-scoring affair). It was a cracker. The Dragons are surely peeking right now.

Call me mad but I've taken the 20.5 start on the Rabbitohs. The Bulldogs is another team I've followed for a very long time, so a good win to them won't upset me too much :wink: Hoping for the ideal scenario, Bulldogs by less than 20.5.

And of course looking forward to the Anzac Test tomorrow night. :smile:

Please be kind to your comrades Kangaroos, I'm thinking of taking the Kiwis with the start (that NZ fetish again :roll: )

My mates all think I'm mad, they reckon the Aussies are going to waltz this one in

20.5 is a lot of points to win by! But with Mad Dog out of Souths, they will struggle against the Dogs.

Plenty of money is going on Aust to beat NZ by 15.5+. I dunno... NZ beat us last meeting.

last year we sent our B team over there [ i backed N Z ] and now there sending there B team over here , looks a safe bet AUSTRALIA by 24+

with sportstab so far:

$12,000 ROOSTERS -2.5
$10,500 RAIDERS -7.5
$10,000 AUST -15.5/ RAIDERS -7.5
$ 8,000 ROOSTERS
$ 7,000 AUST -15.5
$ 5,000 AUST -15.5
$ 4,200 ROOSTERS
$ 4,000 ROOSTERS
$ 4,000 AUST -15.5
$ 3,800 AUST -15.5
$ 3,750 AUST -15.5
$ 3,600 AUST -15.5
$ 3,500 AUST -15.5
$ 3,500 RAIDERS -7.5
$ 3,000 AUST -15.5
$ 3,000 AUST -15.5
$ 3,000 SHARKS +6.5

Paddy,
I don't think ya mad mate...love ya.
Roo's are playing 4 million of us tomorrow
how can we loose...anyway, there won't be enough room on the paddock for them.

I just hope it is not a blow out for the sake of Rugby League as the Kiwis are fielding a young and inexperienced team. There were some surprise selections- I hope Daniel Anderson knows what he is doing! I think that the Aussies speed out wide will come into play around the 60 minute mark...just hoping there is enough points on the board in favour of NZ!! I think the Kiwis do better at this time of the year than after a State of Origin series (where the Aussies have played some really tough footie) but that is a guess...any stats guys?

How many Rooster are in Fridays game? Will it affect their game against the Dragons?

Reckon Parramatta will feel it the most cos Hindmarsh has been an outright superhuman in his games for them.

Geez Paddy, not sure about Souths but I think Storm were going to beat most teams by a large margin last week. Can big Willie repeat last week's great effort against the Warriors this weekend? Pricey will be on international duty but will no doubt back up....they depend on him a lot so hopefully he won't burn out! Think it will be a tough day at the office for the Rabbitohs...
