Farmduck Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 The Rabbitohs have hit a speed hump in recent weeks, losing players to Origin and injury and losing three in a row to the Panthers, Knights and Eels. The last win for Wayne Bennett's men was over Wests Tigers in round 11 and by a quirk of the draw they meet again just five weeks later. The Bunnies' forward stocks have been boosted by the return of George Burgess and they'll need Blues reps Damien Cook and Cam Murray to stand tall as well if they are to get over the top of a Tigers pack led by Alex Twal and Ryan Matterson. The Tigers will be hoping it's a case of third time's a charm as far as Bankwest Stadium goes after their other two outings at the flashy new venue resulted in hidings from Parramatta and Canberra.

Dunbar Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Disgusting act by George Burgess. Our sport is tough enough without the risk of someone being blinded. Should get a long ban and it will be well deserved... no benefit of the doubt with this one, his fingers were really digging into Farrah's eyes.

Farmduck Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 Possibly the lowest crowd of the season as there has been a double fatality on the M1 - from Sydney to Wollongong - and the traffic is backed up for 20km outside Wollongong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmduck Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 Quote A major emergency operation is underway after two people died, and as many as nine others have been injured, in a multi-vehicle crash at Wollongong south of Sydney. Emergency crews were called just before 2:00pm to reports of plumes of smoke on the M1 Princes Motorway near the Mount Keira Road overpass at West Wollongong. Two trucks and three cars have been involved in the collision and police have confirmed two people in one of the cars have died. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-06-28/two-dead-in-wollongong-princes-motorway-crash/11262688 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
