This week there are only five NRL games being shown, one less than we've become accustomed to.

This week's Co-op Championship game, Swinton v York, is being shown on Sunday at midday (12 pm)

It's back to six games next weekend in R10 and also back to Thursday night for the Co-op Championship game.

Well, I'm settled in for the Warriors v Broncos game from a vibrant Mount Smart, a game which promises to be a cracker, and there's already one score on the board. Matulino has put in a couple of bellringers. Really looking forward to seeing what this Shaun Johnson kid can do.
I'd rather have a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

That was the one I got wrong this week, the Warriors have been too erratic and inconsistent this year although if they turn up they can destroy any team in the comp! Tipped the more steady Broncos instead!

Really enjoyed the Souths Sharks game this week, was very open, and good to see big Sam back in the team, wont be long till Luke joins him too now.

Itll be interesting to see how Melbourne go during the Origin period, they look almost untouchable at the moment!

There's a few teams who make tipping difficult this season.
Warriors, Dogs, Tigers, Rabbits ... and others.
Last year Broncos Origin tactics of relying on the youngsters was interesting but cost them results.

The practice of putting on these Origin Games in midweek adds the random factor to the weekend games.
There doesn't seem to be any alternative to the midweek slot without stretching the season which appears to be a no-no.
