Went out to watch Wests v Souths, impressive from Wests first half...they could have been out of sight but butchered a couple of great opps. Then in the 2nd half they threatened to do the same, 18-0 up until 2 tries in the last 5mins of the game from Souths to make it look close when it never was. Both teams missing a few players each I am led to believe. Big Ben Gunter played 8 for Souths, he is a huge man but well handled by Wests.

Well I think it was 3 from 4 (like you), however I think my margins were a lill out as well. Glad Bond played better, because Brothers did not. I'll give my take on the game, maybe tomorrow.

Apparently Souths will be without Jayden for 4-6 weeks with a broken hand.

Hi fellow members of the Qld Colts unofficial tipping contest.
This week:
Brothers by 14 over Wests
Souths by 15 over Easts
Uni by 10 over Bank
GPS by 20 over Norths
Brothers a month without a win but should cruise here. (You cant play GPS every week).
Souths can beat the good sides but has trouble with the dud sides - but not this time.
Uni game to preview the grand final. Both teams in good form. Uni rested up after 2 byes in a row.
Boasting a combined for & against of negative 300, the last game is for relatives only. GPS to win despite themselves.

I've seen them play twice and based it on that really, their forwards are their strength and thought they might just get the job done.
Uni against Bank today was an entertaining game albeit that in a turkey shoot where defence was not exactly king that bank always likely to win such a game. So dangerous on the counter attack. Really good back three. Uni just struggled to contain them. Think it was 7 tries to 5.
I cannot remember a comp being so tight in prem colts in years.

Have a comment on the Brother's v Bond game a few weeks ago.
Bond definitely desired to win. However if there was a criticism of them they should have won by more than the scoreline given 10 mins to go the score was 19-14.
In the first half Bond controlled the ball well; both in scrums and line-outs. They would have had at least 60% of the ball and only lead by 14-7 at half-time. With the possession and the field position it should have been at least 21, if not more; whats more the Brothers try came from a somewhat "dangerous" mid-field bomb that could of have easily ended in a score either way. One of the factors of why Bond did not score more in the half is that on at least 4 occasions (with Bond 5 m out), the referee gave Brothers a penalty for some sort of ruck infringement; I don't know what the penalties were for, as I was 80 m away, but was always thankful as each time a score was on the cards.
Second half was a little more even (in terms of possession) and whilst Brothers weren't really in the game, at 19-14 with 10 mins to go, Brothers started to gain some momentum. In one's mind you could almost feel that they had to get lucky (for the second time in the game!) and could snatch the game 21-19 or at least a draw, but not to be. Once again an error (a pass this time, getting better than an outright intercept) with a try on or near full-time under the posts.
For Brothers again no respect for the ball and not much patience in the build-up for the attack. Very flimsy defense in the outside backs in particular. The scrum was holding it's own for most of the game, but the line-outs were terrible. Could have written a letter to the Bond side with what the throw was going to be; and to be fair Bonds line-outs were probably some of the best Brothers have seen. For Brothers another well below Bank/UQ performance (the high standard for Brothers games thus far).
Bond deserving winners!
