NRL 2025

Dolphins were exceptional in their first preaseason game against the Cowboys. Think we going to surprise a ton of people this year.

I agree.

Some slightly surprising results in the tiails, but everything suggests that the standard will be high this season.

Fins seem to have much better depth than last season.

5/8 suits Averillo.

Broncos seem fitter. Sharks and Rabbits should be better.

Might be some surprises in a close season, top 4 not so easy to pick.

Storm and Panthers might not be a lock for top 4.

Roosters very hard to predict.

Do you know the Bulldogs thread was the only active non football thread on IS? There were whispers years back about going over the the AFL part to rev them up but they'd have flooded and annoyed the football side. It wasn't too big though.

The bulldogs have their own little spot but perhaps they'd like

Hi JS96:
The Bulldogs Debate Page has been going forever over srveral different sites. When our old site was going the same path, Pasquali kindly invited us over here. We are a friendly bunch, quirky but friendly. Feel free to hop on over and join in. Discuss any team you like (as long as it's Dogs)😆.
 
Jimmy Graham picked Canberra for the spoon.

Shows how hard picking winners in the NRL will be in 2025.
 
what a DH !

A mate of mine sent me pics in his Dolphins attire against the rabbits.
Yes he's sydney living Brizvegasite.
Stirred him up a wee rabbit ate a dolphin.
Then my devoted eel bro inlaw gave him heaps the westies got globbered ! haha luv it.
Christ bloody McGuire turned the bronco around for r1, smashed them chooks, could stir another mate when I see him.
Good to see the Sea Eagles result !
 
Top 4 out of Panthers, Storm, Broncos, Manly, Sharks.

Dogs/Raiders close to the best of the rest followed by Rabbits and Dragons.

I'm optimistic about the Dogs going close to top 4.

But IMO the smokey this year is Manly. I just have a hunch Turbo might have a relatively injury free season after his best start to the season in years.

People have forgotten how good Turbo in peak form can be. Latrell is similar, but the Rabbits seem to be having a disrupted start to the season.

Dogs are missing a player like Turbo/ Latrell, but should be able to out grind all but the top 4.

I rate the Tigers fullback Bulla very hightly, and if the Tigers make the 8 he will be a big part of that.
 
not a bad Top 4 prediction though just 1 round.
Everyone knows how good Turbo is - the moment he's out of SOO puts us on the back foot normally.
He's a beast complete player who wins games for you.
Hope your injury free call is on the money be a pleasant change thats for sure.

Mags sure got the previous woeful bloody Broncs start up strong.

No doubt Panthers Storm definate contenders again, I still too early of the rest.

How do people feel of the black gold panthers strip ?
Heck I go back when they were choc soldiers so gone through some kit changes over the years but this one is huge.
Its one club thats has really changed it old DNA compared to the rest.

Hopefully the Turbo injury isn't too bad. I might have jinxed the poor guy.

The optimistic view is that they got him off in time and are just being cautious.

Good luck to all teams this year.

Let's kick off the discussion. Without gambling would NRL be broke?

Fuck these cunts and their gambling. It's a sickness that destroys lives.

People are addicted, the governments are addicted to the money, we have more poker machines (outside of casinos, 18% of the world's total) than anywhere in the world and we lose more money per person, per capita than anyone in the world.

Lives are ruined every day and no one gives a flying fuck.

Dead set needs some sort of serious regulation.

Call for action to address gambling harm as report finds Australians lose average of $1,600 a year

Grattan Institute says losses in Australia are double those in the US, and poker machines are more common in Australian suburbs than ATMs
