One from Five

Sorry in advance, but round these parts there is only one kind of footy and that's Rugby League.

Just for the fun of it I thought I'd post my ABC Grandstand NRL Footy Tipping picks for the week and see how I go.

I can't believe it one from five.

Reminds my when my Dad was having a go at me as a kid for not getting something right he would say "you couldn't hit the side of a barn with a hand full of rice or you couldn't hit a bull on it's bum with it's own tail", and another one was, "you couldn't run out of sight on a dark night", (those were the days) or, "useless as tits on a bull", (your getting the idea by now I suppose) and after picking 1 from 5 I'm feeling that at the moment.

I really thought this would be fun , but I'm finding it as hard as hell and frustrating.

Oh well here I go again, which reminds (the here I go again part) of my time when I was in Mackay during my 20's. YouTube Whitesnake 'Here I go again'.

FRIDAY

Storm vs. Broncos ............ Broncos

SATURDAY
Sea Eagles vs. Roosters....... Sea Eagles

Cowboys vs. Rabbitohs ........ Cowboys

SUNDAY

Seven from eight has lifted me up the ladder again and I'm now 1024 from 3293 tippers.

That's a whole 210 places so I'm guessing a lot of other people had a good week too.






Oh, I've also heard of a game they call the State of Oranges on Wednesday night.

Does anyone know anything about this game? (:

I don't know what it's got to do with Oranges when it's all about Blues and Maroons.

Personally I like Yellows.

Go the mighty Maroons!!!!!!!!!

So close to eight from eight.

Who'd thought the cowboys would win against the Warriors in NZ and one point in the Wests Tigers v Rabbitohs game when the Tigers were winning close to the end.

Anyhow six from eight has lifted me up to 1234 out of 3275

FWIW, I think Mathew Johns is being nailed to the cross for everyone else's sins and should not be sacked or stood down.

If a police officer gets caught for drink driving I don't see them losing their job over it.

ROUND 9
May 9-11

Broncos v Sea Eagles .............. Broncos
Cowboys v Dragons ................. Cowboys
Knights v Titans .................. Knights
Roosters v Storm................... Storm

I thought this (tipping) would be a walk in the park but I'm finding it really hard.

Every week every game could go either way and I buggered if I know which way to go as you might be able to tell when I can only pick 4 from 8.

Anyhow with all the byes this week at least there is only four games but they are all 50/50 games to me.
