1. Swans continue to impress. The fight they put in at each and every contest knows no answer from most sides. Their brand of football is changing the game.
You have to give it to Gary Ablett as the Gold Coast Suns start to look good. His perseverance looks to have gained an incredible reward over and above his Brownlow Medal.
2. Waratahs. When everyone else fell over, they have positioned themselves nicely now. Can anyone genuinely believe the Cheetahs knocked over the Brumbies? A horrible loss really. The Reds have a deserved spoon now.
3. NRL. The NSW side will be interesting. Another 3-0 loss for mine. We are on old legs and have some proven losers amongst our team. Gallant and respectable, but simply not in the hunt. QLD are a mile in front. To watch Hodges' pass between his legs on Friday night, Thurston's supreme quality and toughness and Slater's genuis that befuddled the hopeless Rabbits...they will lap us. Even poor old Ray Hadley will be supporting Queensland this year. His ex-wife won't.
For NSW, who is left? Possibly this might serve as a blessing as we get rid of the complacent and the overly familiar.
4. Hope you saw the Josh Morris trysaver v the Warriors. Those Morris twins are something else. Amazing pace and honesty when they have performed poorly. Brett was scathing after the Dragons were belted by the Eels...on himself too.
Was that Ricky Stuart spraying the referees again? (Get on them next week).
5. Arsenal. Almost lost to Hull in the FA Cup, but did enough to win Arsene Wegner a contract renewal. They may have used his head as the ball next year if he fell to the lowly Hull boys.
6. Good to see the Socceroos changing the guard. About time. There must be some happy countries to see us drawn against them!
