NRL week 2 - 2010
A 5 from 8 effort in week 1 which I'll take given the surprising upsets. Onwards and upwards in week 2.
Dragons v Bulldogs
Dragons by 8
I think the Dragons will carry on the form of last week, and so will the Bulldogs (or lack of). And how much are the Dogs going to miss El Masri?
Rabbitohs v Titans
Rabbitohs by 6
The Rabbitohs have to make amends for a god damn awful performance last week. The Titans were lucky to get away with a win and may just struggle a bit to get away with that sort of performance two weeks in a row. I'll call it now, the winner makes the playoffs, the loser doesn't.
Warriors v Sharks
Warriors by 6
The Sharks look a much better side than last year and a win to them wouldn't shock me but the Warriors should win most of their home games and a bit of passion this week will carry them over the line. If they lose this will be one damn long season.
Knights v Storm
Knights by 4
I'm tipping a big upset here. The Storm just did enough last week on the road but I the Knights look to have a better attack than the Storm faced at Shark Park and the home crowd might lift the Knights over the line.
Cowboys v Panthers
Cowboys by 4
They came home with a wet sail against the Broncos and should have too much class in their own joint. The Panthers will be tricky to beat, but not as tricky away from home.
Eels v Sea Eagles
Eels by 4
The Sea Eagles suffered a devastating blow losing weasel face for most of the year and remember how shit they were last year when he was sidelined. I think this game will be tight as hell, but the Sea Eagles confidence should be down and the Eels can't start the year with back to back home losses. Can they? but, but, they were being talked up as favourites! In their dreams they are.
Roosters v Tigers
Roosters by 6
This game should be a doozy. The Roosters were surprisingly impressive against the Bunnies (who played poorly) while the Tigers went through the motions until they sparked late to steal a win. The Roosters will run from the front and hold them off.
Raiders v Broncos
Raiders by 6
The Raiders are usually a bitch to beat at home and the Broncos who will probably roll hot and cold all year might be cold on monday night.
Dragons v Bulldogs
