    Sharks kick off the season at home against the Broncos.
    Can they go back to back?
    I'll be heading down to the ground in a couple hours for the season opener.

    Please share your team, tips, feedback and bets for the season.

    If he can catch the ball he might be ok :)

    He's a liability on defense too - gambles too much on the intercept and doesn't slide. Opposing teams would always target that wing.

    Not the desired result tonight, but early days.
    Made an adjustment to my bets in play on the fly when Sharks were down by 8 late in the first half and cashed in for a $230 gain overall.

    Dragons tragic here - will be at Jubilee on Saturday.

    Would be happy with a finish near the too 8.

    Hate to say it - but think the Roosters will win it.

    It's game one and plenty to go, alot went Broncs way and I liked our last 30 minutes apart from the accidental offside. It hurt.

    Our discipline lacked and showed with a 69% completion rate.. that is not going to win matches

    We are still a top 4 contender and winning from 3rd place last year I still see hope of back to back premierships :)

    Exotic season predictions: Knights top 8 finish and Dragons wooden spoon

    No Ennis, No Barba. All your old guys are even older. You'll be lucky to make the 8 let alone top 4.

    Backed the broncos. Tigers and Melbourne tonight.

    Last night didn't spark my interest for a season opener. 9 commentary terrible, should have kept Yvonne Sampson.

    Spent most if the time catching up on LIC & ETF threads.

    I just noticed that - she done a terrific job. I'm watching the commentary at the end of the game and it's cr*p. Who's the new cheesy dude? Where did Yvonne go?
