Mate if there’s ever a group of fans that deserve a good season with how the people running the Tigers love to self sabotage.

Plus I’m a big fan of Benji Marshall. He was only at the Broncos for year but I loved how he went about playing.

The 'board' arguments and self destruction is farcical - its never ending just get on with it FFS

And as for Benji yeah he was one of those special one-of-a-kind players alright, also seems to be a decent human being and can hopefully add some coaching success ... he has definitely built a group of players that would seem to want to go into battle for him - good signs.

As for the Broncos - I know its early doors but - wtf has happened ??

I'm hoping they go well - they certainly have a much different feel to the whole squad this year - - here's hoping

The Tillies did well last night against a tough Chinese side. 2-1 win & the goal by Sam Kerr to seal it was a peach of a finish. Final on Saturday night vs the winner of today match between Sth Korea & Japan

It’s not on here as far as I’ve seen. Hope they smash them. Good to see them doing well. Have they been getting good crowds in. I imagine it will be packed for the final. Where is it being played.

A good start for the tigers.

How do you think they’ll go this season?

I went to the TIGERS game on Saturday - stood on the hill - got drenched by flying VB cans after every score - was a mad excellent day -

Yeah I saw the pitch invasion. Crazy scenes like when Buddy kicked his, was it 1000th goal.

I was watching the roar game this morning and spent more time flicking over to the Essendon Hawks match. The roar looked shocking and I’m amazed it finished 2-2. Ryan Frazer was ripping them apart. The AFL was much more enjoyable.

I saw the stats for the Matilda’s game. Looks like they got absolutely dominated and pulled off a sneaky win in the end. Just checked it was 21 shots to 4 but they scored 2 goals from those 4 shots. 31 touches in the opposition box to 7. Some crazy one sided stats.

The Swans vs Lions was THE match to watch. We dominated them from the off. And yeah NK really are nice to watch on the ball with slick passing & all but try to walk the ball into the net. Oh and McKenzie Arnold was fantastic in goal & I’m one of her biggest critics. We play China on Tuesday night & they were taken to ET last night which is good for us.

Not a good start but they didn’t exactly start last year that well.

They’ve been some massive scores in the NRL so far.

Not sure if you saw it but Alex Johnson of the Bunnies broke the NRL record for the highest try scorer of all time

[SB]

The Matilda’s got a good 2-1 win over North Korea last night in the 1/4 finals of the Asian Cup & that assures them a place in the WC too.

Broncos 0/2 to start the season as reigning champions & a side that has conceded 66 points so far. As good as Reece Walsh is in attack his defensive side & positional play is terrible.

Just saw the Broncos score. Can I whinge about Cleary being available and cleared when he should have been suspended. Not a good start but then who would have thought they’d win it last year. It took them until late in the season to really click into form.

Suns have got high expectations this season. Good start for them. Sounds like Petracca had a big impact.

How do you think the Titans will go against the Sharks.

I watched some of the super rugby match between the Chiefs and Moana Pacifica. So much fun just all out attack from both teams.

I think the Sharks might just pip us but I think it’ll be a good game.

Yeah Petracca played well & looks really happy up here. Bailey Humphrey had 3 goal 1 from his first 4 kicks in the 1st quarter.
