My Life Has Purpose 

Well ladies and gentleman its time to jump on TradeMe and flick your old TV, your bedding, spare clothes, sister's kidneys and renew your TAB betting account.

The NRL is about to begin - only eight more sleeps in fact.

You wouldn't know that from looking at the TAB though, who say they can't be arsed offering odds on anything other than NRL winner, but hey that's old ground and there's league to look forward to.

Went and watched the Warriors destroy the Presidents X111 last Sunday at Albany although the $5 a pop Lion Reds put a dampner on it, well not really but it did encourage shall we say some creative purchasing methods.

Hard to see too much into the performance really but here's the Peter Jessup round up of it. I agree, like he says just too slick.

This season I'm blogging each Friday with my tips versus Jessup's in the league and seeing who comes out on top.

Also I'm going to run a Sione Faumuina dropped ball counter.

OK so round 1 we've got Bulldogs versus Dragons on the Friday night - Bulldogs to win.

Saturday:

Sharks and Panthers - Panthers to win, 13 and over unless the Sharks new no. 1 supporter's speed rubs off.
Roosters versus Rabbits - Roosters but perhaps by 12 or under.
Wests vs Eels - Who cares? Probably Eels.

Sunday:

Broncos vs Cowboys - Broncos easy.
Storm vs Knights - Storm by 13 and over.
Warriors vs Manly - Warriors.

The Raiders have unluckily got the round one bye. Not as unlucky this guy though.

As a league commentator said after the Newcastle incident "these guys have got battleship bodies and rowing boat brains".

Comments:
I went to that warriors game as well. Spur of the moment thing. There was a fucking annoying bulldogs supporter sitting behind me that kept going on about how it wasn't a real game because it was professionals v amateurs, if the bulldogs were playing they'd be winning 30 nil by now (when the warriors were up by 6) etc etc.

He didn't really get the point that it was a fucking warmup game.

My old man has also scored tickets to the Warriors season opener. Hope we're in a corporate box eating lamb and drinking free beer. Hey, it's happened before. Shame it was for the Kingz :(
