NRL 2023 Comp Round 27


Hesi

Recommended Posts

$40 NRL bet this week to anyone who correctly picks 8 correct results.  Draws included, but it is after 80 min, no extra time.  If you are good enough to pick a draw after 80 minutes, then it becomes too much luck with golden point, so should be rewarded.  Jackpots each week by $20.  Please note prize shared in the unlikely event more than one picks correctly

Expect lots of surprises this week with teams resting players before the finals

2.  Richie will put up a $10 multi bet on the NRL the following week to the person picking the most correct results, shared if more than one.  Can only be claimed if no one hits my jackpot

Please note also, there will be a comp for the finals, involving 9 games over the 4 weeks

Rusty and myself have  a $10 NRL  bet to have this weekend. Globederby does too but doesnt want his so I will put a multi on his  picks for first 5 games and use winnings for comp

Can I please go Storm 13+ into Panther 13+ for the $10 multi? 

Many thanks in advance.

Sorry about no updates but my life is so busy at the moment ,in fact I'm at work as I write this.Heading to Auckland for 2 weeks as my daughter gets married next Friday .Hopefully the Warriors game will be on Saturday or Sunday.

So Rusty has all 6 games correct so far and has the Titans and Sharks which everybody has the Titans so he is guaranteed to win either Hesis pot  or a $10 nrl bet by himself

6 wins- Rusty

5 wins - Godzstar , Zabeel 

4 wins - Richie, Mardy, Tonkatime 

3 wins- Black Caviar,  Maximus,  Hesi

As you can see from that, it will be Warriors vs Penrith on Friday, at Penrith

The Warriors actually have a very hard finals pathway.  

You would have to be very optimistic to believe they could beat Penrith at Penrith, which means they get a second chance, playing the winner of Newcastle/Canberra at home, probably Newcastle, the form team late in the comp

Had they not put in a depleted team against the Dolphins yesterday and won, they would have been playing the Broncos in the finals, and even a loss to them would have seen a home game against either the Sharks or Roosters, potentially an easier pathway than what they now face.

Perhaps a blunder in strategy

Newcastle vs Canberra in first round is not confirmed yet, likely but Canberra could upset Sharks today

resting a bunch of players with niggles has to help and perhaps the Warriors didn't mind playing title favourites Penrith in the first week of the play-offs because it means avoiding them in the semi-finals (or preliminary final) should they get that far

MM

Panthers are a machine, unlikely

You are drawing a long bow there Maxi.  A bit like the supposed learned commentators who are dismissing or making light of the relevance of the AB's incurring an all time record defeat 2 weeks out from the WC

Yes, but no record thrashings.

Sorry mate but the cracks are there, and it is what everyone will be being a wiseguy about after the event, if we don't win.

We also had far better teams in 87, 11, and 15, and the NZRFU wasn't being run in such a shambolic way

Yep sorry you are right, Canberra can jump ahead of the Sharks to 6th if they beat them tonight.  I was sure I heard that only the Sharks and Roosters could change position on NRL Live

Yes well said Richie, the cracks have been there for a while now, but many fans and commentators' objective judgement is clouded by their bias towards the AB's.  The SA thrashing, albeit with a player down, showed up those cracks

Sorry to give you a bum steer Richie, but according to the TAB, Warriors game is on Sat 9.50, with the Broncos/Storm playing Friday night 9.50

I presume they are right

So im a bit split between Panthers and Warriors. Have been a Panthers fan since late 70s and love both them and Warriors to bits.As a Penny fan we have more downs than ups but last 4 years have been fantastic. As a Warriors fan I think we have done something special this year .At least  no matter who loses,they will get another chance.Do I wear my old 80s Panther jersey or my 90s Warrior jersey?That is the question?
