After having finally actually seen the game all I can say is we are the most entertaining team in the league, best game I have seen since the game in Perth last year

Still better than the Storm. I'd rather have Sing, Bowen and Thurstans in the backs than Billy and Inglis (who I might add are now gone). Hell I'd rather Thurstans than Johns.

They were very lucky to beat the eels, they'll make the top 6, but I can't see them winning it.
Cowboys will finish top by far. No need to worry about that. Hell even if we do finish 4th you can bet we'll still win that damn thing!

Looking at the ladder and I see we're still on top. How about that :)

We've had a slow start but with a big win under our belt we will rise up the ladder and hopefully get BK back soon and we will be unbeatable :D

Cowboys are greatly overrated

We made the Grand Final last year, came out this year, won away in a top of the table clash against a powerful Knights side and because of one bad game in which we had Carl Webb as our starting prop instead of in the second row because of injury all of a sudden we're overrated?

What about the Storm? Now with Billy and Inglis gone you're absolutely crippled. Strewth you won't even make the 8 this year. Billy and Inglis out sucks for Queensland though but still, Storm = Gorn!

ah, Sharks I see. Last year before the Storm match I saw you kicking up a massive fuss so I put two and two together and somehow came up with 4.01. You're like the Freo of the NRL (and I know I'm going against my AFL team but..) inconsistent, letting leads slip and DEFINATELY won't make finals this year.

Not on head to head results :)
A bit like saying St.Kilda isn't better than Carlton because head-to-head Cartlon has won more. Still if you're happy with where you are on the ladder then by all means enjoy mediocricy

Thats what was so great about Saturday, we came from behind for once :eek:

We just cannot put teams other than the Storm away :p I remember most wins last year were by about 2 points, but made for entertaining matches as they were usually 30-28 or similar

Have the Blues beat St Kilda this season? I didnt even realise they had played em yet :p

I dont enjoy mediocrity, but its a long season and plenty of time left, showed some great signs on Saturday and without a full strength team, with so many changes over the off season it was always going to take time to get used to play together

Geez, another loss for the Cowboys, this time to a :D:D:D:D team whilst the Sharks continued on their winning ways

Maybe the Cowboys will do a Richmond 2005 :D
