The Storm, Sea Eagles, Panthers (should be a good game against the Rabbitohs), Sharks (another mid ladder good game), Knights, Eels (if they don't win, then they're going to have trouble for the remainder of the series), Roosters & The Warriors.
I've heard teams such as the Eels are having difficulties in lock-down where the single men (on higher priced contracts) are in more luxurious hotel rooms, while family / married men have their whole families in cramped smaller hotel rooms (hence disrupted sleep etc).
Apparently this is why the Eels have started loosing recently. (as good as any other story out there)
Thats interesting, I would never have thought of that as a reason for the
team to be disrupted but of course it does make sense.
I was wondering what the salaries are like and from this list it varies from
$1,200,000 [max] to $140,000 >
https://www.zerotackle.com/rugby-league/players/highest-paid-players/3 Eels players earn less than $500,000, Isaiah Papali'i = $150,000 being the lowest
while for example the lowest Panthers player, Apisai Koroisau earns $470,000 and next
nearest is $635,000, Viliame Kikau.
Rugby Union.Hopefully the Australian's can emulate the Qld State of Origin team and win the third (dead rubber) game this week-end against the All Blacks.
Yea I was wondering about this championship but I actually havent paid any attention
to it, The odds on sportsbet dont portray much hope for Australia I'm afraid
Australia 8.60 v 1.05 New Zealand
I have a bet on the Springbok to beat The Pumas, odds are Argentina 4.70 v 1.16 South Africa
