[Big Pete]

Cronulla/Canberra and Titans/Warriors are my must-see clashes of the weekend.

Cronulla/Canberra is a big clash for both sides. While Cronulla didn't officially lose against the Titans, they lost their 15 game winning streak and could find themselves on a downwards trajectory if the Raiders get on a roll. Conversely, while the Raiders find themselves in the Top 4, they won't be there for long if they continue to produce soft defence, particularly against one of the most lethal offensive sides in the game.

The biggest question mark surrounding the game is the availability of James Maloney. The Cronulla Shark's five-eighth was cited by the match review committee for an altercation with Titans centre Konrad Hurrell and he'll have to plead his case to the judiciary if he wishes to play on Saturday. If Maloney is out, that will likely see Fa'amanu Brown return at the five-eighth position. Brown did an admirable job filling in the previous two encounters, but it's worth noting that it was against a Penrith Panthers side missing Josh Mansour and Matt Moylan, and the lowly Newcastle Knights.

Meanwhile the Titans/Warriors clash shapes as a defining match for both sides. Both teams are looking to cement their spot inside the Top 8, so on a sunny Sunday afternoon I expect a free-flowing game that could go either way. If either side wins, it will all but confirm their place in the Top 8 with the remaining games being relatively easy.

 

[Super Freak]

If Maloney is gone, my tip will be leaning more towards Raiders.

I think they will lack direction with him gone. I saw Townsend last night and I didn't really like what I saw.

I don't think he could guide the team on his own. But I suppose he does have Ennis there.

Not an unexpected result really, given the recent form of the judiciary.

Margot Robbie welcomes this information.

[Broncoman]

Parramatta are shooting for a 5th straight win over Manly tonight

 

[tommy]

The fix is in! Get on Parra everyone!

 

[Browny]

Lol this is why the no punching rule is shite

 

[Morkel]

Parra are getting raped in the ruck. Manly are being allowed to lie all over them like... Well, every team that's played us this year.

 

[Fozz]

Cecchin. Nuff said.

 

[Fozz]

Shoulder to the jaw. Play on. Refs obviously want the Manly fairy tale to continue.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

*Looks at tipping comp* Oho shit, sorry boys

 

[Big Pete]

Another riveting game of Rugby League.

Did Channel 9 seriously think this would be better than the Sharks v Raiders? Or in case they didn't want to shake things up too much, North Queensland v Wests?

What an insipid clash. Manly didn't rock up and Parramatta were able to get over the line due to the stupidity of Marty Taupau.

Between this and the Dragons/Broncos game, you'd swear this code is dying.
