>yep we’re early

NRL
>GAME 1
Canterbury Bulldogs v Penrith Panthers
7:50pm AEST on Fox, Kayo and Ch9
Accor Stadium, Homebush
1.08-8.00
>Round 26 begins with the Bulldogs looking to seal a top four spot by ending an eight-game losing streak against the Panthers. Having climbed into the top four on the back of nine straight wins, the Panthers have had their momentum halted by back-to-back golden point losses to the Raiders and Storm. Now sitting three points outside the top four with two games to play the defending premiers are faced with the prospect of sudden-death footy throughout September if they're to make it five titles in a row. The Bulldogs have also found the going tough in recent weeks with three losses in their past four matches but they finish off the season with two home games at Accor Stadium where the blue and white army will be out in force. After playing a key role in Penrith's 2021-22 premierships as defensive coach, Cameron Ciraldo endured a tough initiation at Belmore in 2023 but he is now into a second straight finals series and has his sights on delivering the club's first premiership since 2004. Josh Curran comes into the starting side for Viliame Kikau, who has been hospitalised with a skin infection. PropHarry Hayes is facing six weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury soDaniel Suluka-Fifita has been added to the bench. With the top four out of reach Ivan Cleary has chosen to rest 16 of his frontline players. Back-rower Matt Eisenhuth will captain a side that includes premiership winners Paul Alamoti on the wing and Jack Cole at halfback while back-rower Zac Lipowicz, centres John Fonua and David Fale and bench forward Billy Phillips make their NRL debuts.
Bulldogs 1-12 4.00
Bulldogs 13+ 1.38
Panthers 1-12 9.75
Panthers 13+ 34.00
Bulldogs -19.5 1.82 Panthers +19.5 1.99

Feel like these teams just played each other a few weeks ago such is the vagaric nature of the so-called draw

One is on radio, the other is on menulog ads.

>However according to Code Sports, Holbrook, who is currently an assistant coach at the Roosters, has been shopped to the Knights.
>Holbrook is contracted with the Chooks until the end of 2026, but the club is happy to let him leave early for a head coaching role.

Knights are doomed to keep hiring Trent Robinson's shit assistant coaches forever

Matt King YOU eventually will be a Knights coach

Time for the Knights to pick the dream coaching team

Knights need Reg Reagan 2bqh

but enough about your menstruation cycles

>>150425314 (OP)
If you could pick any former player to be the new Knights captain, who would you pick? Who deserves a shot? Personally I'd love to see Bedsy give it a shot, he's done plenty of coaching and even did it for a while after Stone got the flick. Plus surely the players would actually give a shit if their coash was one of the club greats who actually had pride in the jersey.

Titans should do the same thing as the Tigers with the new coach give him 5 years don’t worry if they’re still shit the next two years or three years. It’s hard because of the enforced parity and lack of a separate cup and nines tournament, all you can achieve is finals footy and statistically a team in their position will not do that every other year

Ben Kennedy
>On the night of June 6 this year, a heavily intoxicated Kennedy was found wandering in the Australian Border Force's sniffer dog training facility at Banksmeadow in Sydney's south.
>Hours earlier Kennedy, who played 13 State of Origin games for New South Wales, had attended an Origin function as the Blues clinched the series in Melbourne.
>How he got to Banksmeadow and how he got inside the high-security facility is not clear.
>Kennedy's lawyer Paul McGirr today told Waverley Court that when his client was spoken to by police, he said he did not know "where he was and how and why he got there".
>He also told police he used a brick to smash the window of a car parked in the facility because he was cold and he was trying to stay warm.

>>150431122
you won't do shit pussy

knights are in genuinely serious trouble. they need to sign brad arthur or willie peters, not green, get rid of ponga and buy two young players with potential with that money, and get andrew johns to mentor a young number 7. signing brown to 10 years was ludicrous. fair dinkum certainties for wooden spoon for the two years and even possibly this year. the whole club is in massive trouble for at least the next 5 years

If the bulldogs lose this week will they actually trade galvin?

guys I dont like how late the game is on Thursdays...

If Roosters win, Manly and Dolphins must win

The top 4 is more complicated. Canterbury, Warriors, Broncos, and Cronulla all vying for two spots.
Melbourne are still not mathematically safe in the top 2 but it would require two big losses from them and two big wins from Canterbury

Tigers are still mathematically in for the top 8 too but I cbf explaining that, prefer to pretend they don't exist

The raincoat is a decent suggestion. You really want something practical like that you can open it up if you get warm and close it up if the weather becomes inclement or you need a nap, swap the balloon out for a love heart pillow on a stick and you've got yourself a pillow

According to foxsports, Penrith have a 2% chance of winning tonight.

Oh no Lipowicz is going to miss week 1 of the finals.

dogs passing is so fucking shit

Galvin is so shit Crichton needs to do his play making for him

bit soft but still easily not done if you just slide down the legs get around the ankles rather than hang on like that

>Kiraz keeping the ball after the knock on to waste time when Penrith have a player in the bin
Big brained leb play there

Galvin is so shit Sexton just got an applause for being on camera for 2 seconds

dogs should have been allowed to pull their starters as soon poothers named this peem

Shit they're struggling WITH their starters m8

>>150448802
It comes across as just donating your refund for the sake of it. I feel you can put on something that is a better chance of winning that will pay more 22k8a
