so what happens, if they win they stop the other team from getting points, but dont get them themselves? Dunb, dumb, dumb seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before | |

They got hit hard - more than the Bulldogs a few years back.
So does this mean the Roosters came second last in 2009??? Big huge Chookie fan here 
I still think that they'll win games -- they have a big point to prove. | |

Hope other teams will learn from this and play fare I don't get AFL - i's confusing, but I love their Shorts  | |

Will be very interesting to see how the players motivate themselves for the games. They have nothing to play for except themselves. My name is Naz!!! and I have a windmill where my brain is supposed to be.....

The NRL is fucked. 2007 and 2009 seasons were basically a waste of time now. This season will be completely overshadowed. Why would you support league if your team ends up winning and then gets stripped a few years down the track? It's so stupid. I used to watch all the time, now I don't even bother. | |
