Well I would've been on the saints to cover, but also on penrith (a loss). What was the start, -2, -2.5?

sportznut 11th September 2004 01:44 PM

Well, it was St George (+2.5) when they opened, but those bookies that alter their lines would probably have had St George as favourite by kickoff time.

Good work GM, with the over 47+ total points. Hope you didnt end up backing swans total marks. They got pounded. I can't believe how negatively they played.
It was as if they realised they had no hope and tried to not get smashed by to much.
Well picked MO. Hope ur wrong about the cats though

Thank you Mug Punta.You're never short on congratulations.
You asked me why I was so optimistic about the Saints.
Well like I said many times before.This Gut Factor thing just can't be defined.But you can feel it when it's there.
One strange phenomenom about it,is if you go overboard in your cockiness,then you are not experiencing the Gut Factor but actually the Ego Factor.
Anyway,suggest you tread warily tonight,Mugsy.
Brought a brand new belt last week.Me guts are almost at bursting point.

mug punta 11th September 2004 03:06 PM

Yeah, I thought last week you had that minor air of cockiness and that actually made me more confident because it's the surest wat to come acropper.
I wont even be betting 2nite. It's 2 hard to pick and im just hoping we win without any extra stress and ive got some nice nrl trebles going.

So what's happening?
Storm do any good?
Roosters,Bulldogs?
Fill me in northerners.

The Storm were fantastic !! Scott Hill ws magical a great win.
Couldn't beleive the Cowboys could win Unbeleivable. My Margin bet was gone thanks to Penrith so i didn't mind seeing the Boys from the North win.
Sherwin was no doubt carrying an injury and with Anasta injured the Centres hardly saw the ball.
If Canberrra flukes a win does that mean the Broncos are gone ?

Now, here's the big problem with this ridiculous NRL finals system. Such a brilliant, exciting game of Football last night and it basically means NOTHING! If as expected the Roosters and Bulldogs both win their matches, then there was no real advantage in Penrith winning last night. And unless 2 teams out of Melbourne, NQld and Canberra can win, then there was no disadvantage in St George losing either!


Well, what was it I said once about looking like a goose??? Fair dinkum, I couldn't have been more wrong! With tonight's results, that one point win for Penrith last night WAS a big advantage for Penrith because they go to the prelim final and certainly a HUGE disadvantage to St George, because they're GONE!

I thought Nth Qld would play well, but I didn't believe they could win. Go Cowboys!!!

Yep!

maverick1993 12th September 2004 09:14 PM

who plays who next week Sportz ?

Great win by the storm...notice when the halfback fires the team usually does..
Brisbane dont have one and sherwin 2nd best in the game behind Gower was carrying an injury..
Wasn't Lockyer outstanding..
