I find the Roosters winning the comp most bearable of the remaining sides. Their supporters know they buy comps but aren't unbearable about it, like Broncos fans who actually think they are hard done by.

Awful call against Daniel Tupou for a knock on. It didn’t look like it live and so it proved on the replay.

What was the penalty against Lee for? Very harsh.

Manu is one of the more underrated players in the comp, especially for a Rooster.

Drug cheats... salary cap cheats... their coach should be banned for life from the NRL IMO. Gallen Graham should have spent four years on the sidelines for drug cheating. Yet the NRL lets them go ahead and win a premiership.

And here’s a question... are the Sharks fans the most objectionable in the league? Broncos and Storm fans would give them a run for their money. But I think they might take the title.

Really difficult to understand why a premium, up market brand like Bang and Olufsen would want to be associated with the Cronulla Sharks.

That’s twice the Sharks markers have been pinged for interfering with Jake Friend... it’s just way too risky, it’s dumb football.

I can't see the Dragqueens winning this premiership but it would be real sweet if they pull out a top shelf performance today and end the Donkeys season.... :thumbsup
