Well it is that time of year again when some people in Australia, New Zealand and the odd slightly demented persons from other nations start watching the NRL, the premier League competition in the entire galaxy(Except for on Omnicron Persei VIII).

Anyways who is going to win?
Cronulla Sharks
Auckland Warriors
Brisbane Broncos
North Queensland Cowboys
Newcastle Knights
Canterbury Bulldogs
Manly Sea Eagles
Gold Coast Titans
Melbourne Storm
South Sydney Rabbitohs
Sydney Roosters
Wests Tigers
Canberra Raiders
Penrith Panthers
St George/Illawara Dragons
Paramatta Eels

Yay! I'm an odd and slightly demented person!
Best if you don't ask my opinion - if I knew how to pick a winner I probably wouldn't support Leeds.

Was that a dig at me?
It was, wasn't it?
No idea who will win - but I do know who won't: Worriers, who'll be propping up the others at the bottom of the ladder, as usual. A few good games, marred by the usual lousy ones and appalling ones. Near the end, they'll suddenly get a good run, rekindling the hopes that they'll make it into the top 8, only to blow their chances spectacularly with a horrendous loss.
Go the Crusaders! (Oh wait, its league... ah...)

I'd like to see Melbourne Storm win, simply because I live in Melbourne. I really don't follow rugby though, so I hardly care.

I have no idea about Australian Rugby League, but, just because of the name, I'll be supporting the Manly Sea Eagles. :D

No it wasn't a dig at you.
If the Warriors hadn't lost their 4 points they would have made the top 8 last year, i think...
Then again if the Sharks hadn't have lost 10 straight they would have been Minor Premiers...
