Here we are again.
Huge week ahead with a channel which should have been on years earlier finally making a debut in 2017. Fox League starts tomorrow on Fox sports 2.
Round 1 features some pretty decent match ups with Premiers Cronulla hosting Brisbane at home. Both sides were beaten by English clubs in the WCC so this one may well be a lottery. Cronulla to get off to the perfect start with a close win.
The much debated friday night 6pm game starts with a mouth watering prospect and the first game to test this slot is the Bulldogs v Melbourne at Belmore Stadium. Canterbury beat the Storm in a trial recently and I'm expecting them to get up by 8 points.
Game 2 on friday night features old foes Souths v the West Tigers. Not sure about this one, but will go with Souths at home.
Super Saturday features 3 potential rippers. The Dragons and Panthers start things off and I think the Panthers will get up in this one with a late burst.
Up next and a mouth watering game has the Cowboys up against last years big movers, Canberra. This really should be a close battle and I'm going with the Cowboys at home by a couple of points.
Last up for the night and it's the Titans v the Roosters. Hard to split the two sides, but I'm going with the Titans but only just. We may well see our first GP of the year.
The last two games of the round on Sunday should be good. Steve Kearney's first game in charge of the Warriors when they take on Newcastle and he'll be desperate for a win. Both teams had good trial wins last up so it's a tough one to pick. The Warriors don't usually start well, but i expect them to this time around. Them by 10.
Finally two great rivals go at it when Manly play Parramatta at Brookvale. Manly should win,but Parramatta willbe on a mission to turn around last years dramas. I'm tipping Manly, but it's a game which could go either way.
Will bring team lists and other relevant info as it comes to hand.
Go you Warriors!!
