ROUND 11 results…

THURSDAY MAY 11

Storm 24  vs  16 Broncos

Is anyone else totally feed up with ‘bunker overrules’ completely shooting what should be hard fought entertaining games, between hard, fast playing, teams…

FRIDAY MAY 12

Bulldogs 12  vs  24 Warriors

The Warriors warriored… hopefully the Doggies will soon get some back from their long injury list.

Panthers 48  vs  4 Roosters
hmmm… is Trent Robinson and the Roosters (2013- 2023 getting to a Michael Maguire and the Bunnies (2017), stage of life?... the Roosters seem to be in a state of devolving.... their early years were rocky mountain highs.

 SATURDAY MAY 13

Rabbitohs 20  vs  0 Wests Tigers
The Tiggers may have missed out on a 3 in a row win… but they did limit the Bunnies to a 20 point margin, and that is a positive for them

Cowboys 42  vs  22 Dragons
The Dragons are now masters of slewing themselves…

Raiders 26  vs  18 Eels
Yeah well, very few have much faith left for the Eels!

SUNDAY MAY 14

Knights46   vs  26 Titans
Fancy that, just when some are feeling some confidence in tipping the Titans…

Sea Eagles 14  vs  20 Sharks
Okay, confession time… I admit that I struggle to cheer for Cherry-Evans, even if he is  wearing a Maroons jersy… just saying
 

 

Bye: Dolphins

I’m just glad I don’t have to depend on tipping for a living. I’d be bankrupt.

ROUND 12  results…

THURSDAY MAY 18

Broncos 4  vs  15 Panthers
full on committed, scrambling, and never give up defensive displays has been a huge part of the Panthers game plans for the last few years… it did not let them down in this game.
The Broncos had a few opportunities that did not fall their way… they missed Reynold’s, but the experience and learning curve will be beneficial to Jock Madden’s development.

FRIDAY MAY 19

Dragons 15  vs  4 Roosters
Dragons finally had enough of slewing themselves, so they Bar-B-qued a few chooks
 

Rabbitohs 16  vs  36 Eels
hmmmm…. who saw that one coming?
 

SATURDAY MAY 20

Sharks 26  vs  6 Knights
Craig Fitzgibbon could have fielded half his side, and Hynes and Kennedy would still have over run the Knights…

Wests Tigers 66  vs  18 Cowboys
Holy snapping duck poo…. Benji, Pooh, Tigger, and Piglet are still jumping for joy, and doing cartwheels all around Tiggersville

Dolphins 16  vs  24 Storm
Once again the Dolphins could not build their first half…

SUNDAY MAY 21

Bulldogs 20  vs  18 Titans
at 14 – 0 down at half time, the Doggies ensured the Titans would not get 26 this round..

Raiders 14  vs  42 Manly
Well fancy that…

Bye: Warriors

I thought he had a decent game. Much better than his run at 6 when Mam was out. Definitely a 7.  I'm still a bit hurt that we lost him to the Broncos and we failed to secure his services to replace Brooks.

[Rebel]

Manly V Newcastle.

Newcastls got the Lollies.

Bunker was right for once.

[ellicat]

Good luck to all the Queensland supporters tonight.

Hisss to the NSW supporters. haha

Never in doubt. Certainly didn’t get the rub of the green with the decisions. Who needs 13 on the field and playing 1 down most of the game to beat the Blues.......

[Gad]

This round marks the start of the 2 half of season 2023... time flies.....

Assume there are south-easterly winds tonight as I can hear yelling, screaming and cursing from somewhere over near Cav Rd SHS ............ .

You got that right. Every tackle they laid allover us, but only 8 penalties and 1 sin binning. Gerard Sutton is the worst ref they trot out each week.

I did sting my hands from clapping so hard once Canberra got their just desserts, and we were able to get up and play it within 10 seconds. There may have been some hollers too.

[Rebel]

The Tigers were ulucky

[Rebel]

Broncos V Cronulla.

Congrats Broncos

[Huxstang]

One of the best defensive efforts I have seen from the Broncos in as long as I can remember.  They are really starting to work well in defence together.  This team will win a premiership.  Not this year but within 2

[Gad]

ROUND 14 results….

FRIDAY JUNE 2

Wests Tigers 19  vs 20 Raiders
Well… that score line flatters the Tigers, the miracle dropped into the Tigers laps with 13 minutes of playing time left, trailing 4-18  against 12 Raiders… 5 minutes left, leading 19-18 they still lost…

SATURDAY JUNE 3

Warriors 30  vs  8 Dolphins
The score line does not indicate what a hard fought game this was, the Dolphins minus a few strike players, had opportunities that did not come off for them…half time score of Warriors 6 – 4… a brain fade early in the 2^nd half by an experienced Dolphin’s key position player, put his team in an unenviable position for 10 minutes, and 12 players…
Shaun Johnson showed some recalled ‘in his ha-day’ times.

Titans 28 vs 46 Rabbitohs
surprise, surprise…NOT! ...
points conceded would be a real concern for both coaches

Sharks 12  vs  20 Broncos
and in Shark territory… with Kotoni Staggs showing he is chasing the possibly maybe, NSW  centre replacement jersey, the Broncos picked them like a dirty nose…

SUNDAY JUNE 4

Roosters 25  vs  24 Bulldogs

hmmm. for most of the game, I thought the Doggies were the better side…

Cowboys 45  vs  20 Storm
fancy that!

Panthers 26  vs  18 Dragons
the outcome of this game was as expected, but… with a narrower margin than expected….
 

Bye: Eels, Knights, Sea Eagles

[Gad]

NOTE   Monday arvo game Doggies v Eels… Kings B/day holiday in the lands of the eskimoes
