15. John Asiata 16. Scott Bolton 17. Ben Hannant They probably decide the game for mine. If they compete (and especially if Bolton can be as good as he was last week) then I'm backing the Cowboys in.
Cowboys in a canter for mine. I don't feel like they have as many points in them as last year so they won't blow the Sharks away on the scoreboard but I can see it being something like 30-12.
You could probably stream it live if it got down to it: http://livestream.com/nrl I think it'll work in the US, unless some random service there actually does have the rights. EDIT: Just set my VPN to US and it's not working unfortunately.
The reddit nrl match threads usually have diret links to livestreams which bypass any vpn issues. If you have an iPhone just click on the link provided and it should open the live stream automatically.
http://cricfree.tv/ has been my go to since moving to the States. It's annoying because the games get broadcast on Fox Soccer channel (oddly enough) but my work's cable set up doesn't have it because it's an extra.
Cheers boys. I've got a Foxtel go login given to me, would any of you know how I go about making my phone think I'm back in Australia not the US so I can watch it?
Taumalolo was pretty much the difference in the last game, if it wasn't for him, Cows would have lost IMO. Can he back it up again?
Having looked up his stats its pretty immense that he's clocked up over 4000 metres and played every game this season including the test and World Club Challenge. If anyone can back it up its him. After his poor Melbourne performance after the egging incident I think he seemed keen to atone for it.
It'll come down to how Cronulla defend. Cows are only averaging 16 points away from home and in general have a terrible record on the road this year. If the Sharks can keep them to 2 or 3 tries they'll be right in it. A high scoring affair suits Nth QLD to a tee.
Lachlan Coote has gone from one of the safest fullbacks in the comp to an absolute liability in the last 2 weeks.
