last year was an anomaly imo back to business as usualDolphins played well and deserved their victory, a few questions need to be asked of the Cowboys though at this point.

Maybe the Svengali effect of Payten's beard starts to wane after 12 months.Cowboys look like they don’t care, just going through the motions.
A Bennett team in the bottom 4?Must say I had the Phins picked for bottom 4, don’t think they’ll be too 4 but they could well be top 8.

not quite bottom 4. but Bennett's Knights of 2014 finished on equal points to 4th last. (differential kept them out of the bottom 4)

Purely based on the fact that they don’t have a lot of depth , and if they lose their top players through injury / suspension they’ll struggle.[st_table="45%"][st_tr][st_td_row="2"][/st_td_row][st_td]bruce - nzwarriors.com[/st_td][/st_tr][st_tr][st_td="0.7"]JOINED: .September 1, 2015

Or so I thought.

Although for context that is the year McKinnon was paralyzed and Tinkler was refusing to pay the players. Kind of a miracle they didn't finish dead last.not quite bottom 4. but Bennett's Knights of 2014 finished on equal points to 4th last. (differential kept them out of the bottom 4)

I never expected Phins to be bottom 4, I think they have on paper the worst team in the game but I still expected them to finish 8-12. Top 8 would be a miracle for their roster.
For Katoa, Hammer and JMK to be going as well as they are is Bennett genius.
Herbie in for Brenko who is awful and Flegler giving them a genuine gun prop, they're looking pretty good.
Seriously, the Cows should have absolutely spanked them, they're on their third string halfback and a bunch of injuries in a team that had no real depth to begin with.
Yeah, I’m on the fence on this one. I just know there is no chance the NRL, through the MRC, judiciary, etc will be consistent with it.Preston has been cleared of hip drop tackle by the MRC
They will probably beat us and we miss the finals by 2 points……I bet Mr Webster's thinking "Yep! Picked the right team to coach!" this morning.
On yesterday's performance, that Going Though A Rebuild period the Bulldogs are going though just got at least one season longer. Whether Mr Ciraldo survives to see that through or even to take the Bulldogs into becoming Finals Contenders is another thing.
My favourite forum post of the week: Someone on the Wests Tigers forum asking if the Tigers might do a negative version of Arsenal's Invincibles. The Invincibles went through a whole EPL season without a lost. This Wests Tigers poster wondered if their beloved team might go through a whole NRL season without a win.
