Here it comes. The chance for the Scorpions to prove themselves at the pinnacle of the Rugby League World. Discussion in here.

 

[Burpey]

I reckon we can compete fairly well this season. However, the Dragons are favourites in my books. Such an awesome side on paper.

Will there be City-Country Sean?

Will there be City-Country Sean?

We'll see.

 

[thewizard1o1]

Got to have City-Country!

Although this will be a baptism of fire, i belive that we have enough talent in the scorpions to push most of the teams and compete for a top 8 spot...

 

[Blaze]

BTW it's NZ Warriors not Auckland.

Yeah guys we should go alright. Don't expect too much too soon though. It is a tough league.

And it's Sydney Roosters, not Sydney City. And the Bulldogs are no longer known as Canterbury, just the 'Bulldogs'. Very minor details though

Blame Håkon. He did it.





(....although I should have noticed )

 

[Mister Wright]

There's got to be State of Origin!

 

[Burpey]

There's got to be State of Origin!

It's in there

 

[Mister Wright]

It's in there

Haha! I should stop browsing posts and start reading them.

 

[Simon]

actually they are Canterbury again these days...

 

[lord_of_darkness]

looks good .... lets hope we have a fun season!

 

[Burpey]

Only three days until our first match. Psyche up people!

 

[Blaze]

Penrith away...

We will have a chance of taking this one boys if we play to our ability.

 

[chaminda_00]

what ability???

 

[Robertinho]

what ability???

THARMI: DEPORTED!!

 

[Burpey]

Fellas, where is the enthusiasm??? Our first game against the Penny Panthers is two days away and some of you are nowhere to be seen around here!

 

[Slats4ever]

woah geez a game in 2 days time... bring it on. it's awfully hot over here in sydney i hate to see how nutty the interchanges will be

 

[Blewy]

Im confident of giving the Panthers a real taste of what we can do... They have struggled in recent times and i think we can really come out and shock them...

Lets go boys...
