Listened to SEN Storm Hour and apparently Smith is leading the AFL tipping this year and won last year in the celebrity tips in the herald sun (I think). I thought - gee what can't this man do!

That would be bad - yet somehow familiar. Didin't Bennett's Broncos often end up slipping back down the eight the closer they got to the finals and then got all fired up for this next level of comp.

Also Storm and Shark are interested...

I loved seeing Quinn back and I think he will retain his spot this week! He has a level of maturity and a toughness that is good to see. Bellamy has admitted he wants to give his players some game time before the finals and I think Quinn will get another week. Bellamy will want to have all players h...

I think it's a good idea to give Hershel a rest. He played U18s this year and still seems a little lost in U20's. They game time will have done him a world of good when he gets another pre-season behind him.

I remember him as an U8 so have a soft spot for the lad.

There is a lot of Bellamy love going around at the moment.

I understand the 'not going head to head with AFL' and as a women over 40 I understand that this is their target audience during this time - but I don't understand why they can't show the game at 10:30.

This is a more friendly time to start the game - maybe we could push for this.

While we are on the topic of Billy,

if you couldn't be bothered watching WWOS this morning - here is the handball comp with Billy:

I also think he is careful of what information he reveals in twitter.

Sternum injuries are painful (I hear)

I don't think we have run out as the team named on Tuesday once this season!

While not stated, the only reason David will be visiting is to hand over the Shield. I'm pretty sure we got it early to year we were well clear on the top of thetable and I'm sure we have had it presented in week one of the finals.

"I'm not quite sure whether some of the laundry people had any say in that, I don't know if we've got dirtier jumpers than anyone else," Bellamy joked. "But to me it's a pretty irrelevant poll, it's (a) fairytale really." According to Bellamy, NRL match review committee statisti...

I bet he spends the week catching highballs. I don't expect a repeat performance.

A former Panther himself, Blair returned to Centrebet Stadium last week and was spotted in discussions with Penrith officials. Blair joined Melbourne on a two-year deal at the end of 2010 but enjoys an option in his favour for next season. While Melbourne were furious to learn of Penrith's attempt ...

I don't think it works out quite like that. Members get to buy tickets before they go on sale to the public, but there is not reserving your seats. If someone else buys them before you - then bad luck. I'm in two minds, I love my seats and am thinking of trying to book them or some like them, but th...

Key Injuries We don't have an Key Injuries - ones that would seriously affect the way the team plays at the moment. Compared to a lot of other clubs who have multiple 'key' players injured - we have not had any real test injury wise. Depth to play makers was one of our question marks at the beginnin...
