Re: National Rugby League

I'm showing my support <----- Will you!

I'm already in an OzTips comp at work. That's why my name is Botto and not Joey Joe Jo Shabbado!

I got 10 points last round and sit 23rd of 36. Bloody Roosters! I knew the Sea Eagles were heading for a flogging though.

mattyman you're welcome to join our tipping comp - details above.
You would start at equal last but as we've only been going one week it won't put you at any great disadvantage.

Re: National Rugby League

Well, somehow my tips that I selected using the re-use feature from my other comp went missing. Bugger, equal last for me this week!


Also - The US seems to be launching a professional Rugby League comp next year, starts March 12. Give the TV some footy to show in the NFL offseason.
8 teams, rumour New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Jacksonville, Denver, Los Angeles + 2 others.

Re: National Rugby League

Well Mikmak it was kind of warm for the Bledisloe Cup in Hong Kong so there is no reason why League cant be played when it is warm. They play Gaelic footy in 30 deg or more in Shenzhen.
