Big game for the Bears this afternoon against the Hunters.
Hunters struggling to get through their sets and get over the line. If they can fix that they could be in with a shot but the defending premiers should still be too strong in the clutch. Good opportunity for some of these Bears players to earn NRL opportunities so they'll want to make an impact.
The 9Gem/Kayo game features the struggling Devils taking on Tweed Heads. Devils have really struggled to get their attack in order and don't have defensive ability to keep teams out. Meanwhile Tweed Heads have always been competitive but have been on the wrong end of a lot of close games.
You'd have to think at 1 win-1 draw-8 losses the Devils are done and it's been a fairly bitter end of an era for them. Tweed are still in it at 3 wins - 2 draws - 6 losses but if that becomes 7 you'd have to put a red line through them.
The other story from last night was the Cutters breaking the Magpies heart. The Cutters led 26-8 before the Magpies rallied in the dying stages to make it 26 all. In the end the Cutters halfback Rayden Burns kicked a field goal to clinch it for Mackay.
