Thoughts on the season so far guys?

Looking like another Melbourne v manly gf again.
The other teams just don't seem to be getting it together, including the tigers.

It's a long way to go, but except for the eels its been a promising start by all (bunnies n sharks may also be pointless, but they are both shit, so it's no surprise they on bottom lol)
Raiders, well we had promising start. Could be giant killers if her don't key key injuries.

There's a few things to like about Canberra and the main one is Josh Dugan.

I was hoping Michael Maguire would be a revelation at South Sydney and whilst it's early days he is still yet to get a win at his new club.

Manly look like a different team to the one that played in the World Club Challenge.

Yeah manly with another set back cherry Evans has asked for a release (which the club rejected). Ever since hasler announced he signed for dogs, poor manly just been guttered. (plus they also lost hopoate as well)

As for raiders, what out for new star jack wighton

Does he play on the wing for Canberra?

I wouldn't mind Cherry-Evans coming over and signing for Wigan for a couple of seasons but it's probably just his agent trying to maximise his value.

As you allude to, he'll probably end up at Canterbury. I can't see him leaving the NRL and giving up a potential Origin jersey in the future.

wington plays 5/8 or centre in juniors, but he played he debut game replacement winger.

yeah cherryevans, all about maximising salary. but you cant be a grandfinal winning player if you dont have a team around you, and if they all get greedy, it will be a long time till he wins one again. hes only a kid, maybe if he had more than 1 season under his belt to guage his standing in the game, then he might be in a better position to claim more cash.
you all remember anasta? rookie of the year.. one of the greatest young players around... second year.. most overrated player in the game, and took him 5 more years to start to become the player he promised at the beginning.
there have been so many good young halves in the last years that had fantastic first years then fizzed out to become average players.

Now Cherry-Evans is looking to have re-signed with Manly rumours are afoot that Jamie Lyon is heading back over here to join St Helens.
