Mister Wright's round 3 tips.

Season tally: 7/14

Roosters v Bulldogs

This will be the game of the season so far. It is hard to know if the Bulldogs will keep playing well in spite of all their off field dramas. I'm only going the Dogs because the Chooks have a few key players injured and the Doggies have a few players back, but it could go either way.

Sharks v Manly

I was originaly going to tip Manly, but on reviwing last week's performance I think the Sharks can win this one, especially being played at Shark Park. I remember when the Sharks were unbeatable at Shark Park.

Eels v Knights

Had the Eels played anyone but a sloppy Broncos last week they probably would have lost, and the Knight have been solid so far in the two rounds. I'm going the Knights.

Cowboys v Raiders

I'd love the Cowboys to win this one, and they are usually tough to beat at home, but I like the look of the Raiders this year and it is hard to see them getting beaten. The Cowboys wouldn't have benefited from the bye after their first round performance, they would have loved nothing more than to play the next week, it is for this reason I think they will be a little rusty.

Tigers v Broncos

Even though I never tip against the Broncos, I really think they can win this one. They will have been stung by the deserved critisism given to them during the week, and I have no doubts they will fire up. The tigers have been unimpressive in beating the Sharks and falling to Souths. If they are not on their game, this could be a blowout.

Storm v Dragons

Storm are tough to beat at home, but I have been impressed with the Dragons, and I'm tipping an upset here.

Warriors v Panthers

Tough game for the Panthers, the Warriros are yet to win a game and will be fired up and the Panthers have only had 15 convincing minutes of the season to date. I'm tipping the Warriors, only because they have more to play for.

well i agree with most..

But here are my differences...

Roosters to beat the Dogs, i think the dogs performance last week was ordinary to say the least the roosters despite having people out injured still have a quality side and with Finch and Fittler playing out of their skin at the moment i think they will do it...


Tigers to beat the Broncos, Last weeks effort against Souths was bad, we lacked go forward and carried a player into the game who shouldn't have(Ben Galea). He has now had a run and with the return of Todd Payten and a full strength backline i think we can do it.. Parra showed last week maybe moving locky to 5/8 isn't a great idea as he was pressured with his kicks and his service, and the Tigers defence has been the best of any side this season as yet, including sides who have only played 1 game. Our 1st home game of the season, and the Broncos loss of their intimidation factor will get us over the line...

Panthers to beat the Warriors, I think the Warriors have problems. They have shown nothing at all this season and are still yet to win a game(including Trials) he panthers showed glimpses of greatness last week against the raiders and i think they will continue the Warriors horror run...

For the record i am also 7/14 this season...
