I'll be there on sunshine coast watching the start of our season against the Warriors only 6 weeks to go. It will be interesting to see the starting 13

It's a nice first game, I hope.

I was confused. Now I think I get it. Warriors are based on Sunshine Coast this year? Isn't the disease spreading all over NZ as well? Don't understand trying to stop a disease coming in which is already spreading like wildfire within the population.

I feel for them its got to be tough. I would have thought that the Gold Coast would have been better for them because we have a large nz community and they could have shared with the Titans. I think they will be tough to beat this year because they are becoming more accustomed to our climate and traditional training programs also they are being mentored by Stacy Jones I believe that they are top 8 material so game 1 against them is important for setting up our early season
Eric

Almost every game will be tough but I hope they are tougher for the opposition than for us.
GCRV
SGI NSW Cup
I think you're both right but why do they need to be based in Australia when the disease is spreading like wildfire in both countries?
Eric

I've given up trying to understand it. They even say, "it (the restrictions and new rules and laws) doesn't have to make sense." i.e. It doesn't make sense but suck it up because it's not going to change.

Here is the draw. First time I've looked at it. Every game will be tough. Penrith in round 2 will be a very good indication of how we are looking for the remainder of the season.

Beating Penriff in round 2 will put the rest of the competition on notice.
Chris M
SGI NSW Cup
Round 2 is a little early to make any serious judgement. Remember Souths at full strength had 50 points put on them 2/3rds of the way through last season. Rounds 2, 7 and 9 are pencilled in for me. If we come away with a win or two from those 3 games, we will be looking good.
jodragon40
SGI NSW Cup
I believe 1st 6 rounds will be the guide some really tough opponents there I believe at least 3 opponents will make the top 8.
Eric
Staff
Penrith, Parramatta, Souths? I'm not sure about Parramatta. I reckon they might be in for a fall.
Chris M
SGI NSW Cup
Parra probably won't march down the ladder until next year. They'll be up there again this year. If anything, I'd say Souffs will be much weaker this year.
Eric
Staff
Every year there are teams which surprise everyone by their success and failure. Last year it was Manly and Canberra. I don't think it would even be a surprise to see Parramatta fail to make the 8. They have been thereabouts for a while now.
jodragon40
SGI NSW Cup
I believe that the Warriors will be top 8 obviously Panthers and Rabbits then round 7 roosters another top 8 so tough start to season
Eric
Staff
I don't know too much about the Warriors but I saw a chart of their top 5 highest paid players. It included DWZ (Dallin W****** Z*******) and Kodi Nikorima, both of whom are doubtful of being in the best 17. Judging from that, I guess they'll have to clear salary cap space before becoming a top 8 team. Though with their big props rolling forward and Sean Johnson running off the back of that, they might surprise quite a few people.
jodragon40
SGI NSW Cup
They have introduced a new mentor and warriors legend Stacey Jones , shaun johnson is back probably partnering with either kodi Nikorima or Ash Taylor and their pack is formidable, plus young Walsh at fullback Its a very big test for us because they are in my view top 8 contenders
Morgan
SGI NSW Cup
I'm going to go out on a limb and not in any particular order (too hard at this stage), St George Illawarra, Penrith, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Manly, Souths, Sydney Rorters, Parramatta.
