RECENT RESULTS (At the Line)

Rabbitohs 28 - 24 Eels
OUR TIP: Rabbitohs by 20 LOSS
Our rounds best bet were deadmen walking late in the 2nd half but found a way to hold on, unlike the earlier sinkers in Manly and the Broncos. Mantra good sides find a way to win! Souths record at Accor is unbelievably good and their next game there against the Bulldogs will define their Season. The Eels had their challenges too but found some resolve which should keep them on the up heading into next season. The winning margin may have been a bit more comfy for the Rabbits if they had kicked their goals but they found a way home. Johnstotn should be employed to teach future wingers about positioning themselves in attack! One of a Kind!
Broncos 32 - 40 Dolphins
OUR TIP: Dolphins by 4 WIN
If you cant find the line after leading 28 nil, you dont really want to be playing. I do think though rferee Smith, played the Dolphins back into the contest but some of the Broncos lack of effort was embarrassing and in line with what they have been playing like all season, Shit! Two following Seasons in a row have the Broncos played in a GF and nt produced the following Season, a challenge they need to address with their big name Roster. The Dolphins are a good side well led and well Coached and yes you can get out enthused in Local Derbies but to find a win from so far behind shows their Class, maybe not being the number one team in Brissy kicks the Broncos in the Butt, the butt kick that they need!
Storm 42 - 20 Sea Eagles
OUR TIP: Sea Eagles by 2 LOSS
Manly led 14 to 0 and got lapped. The Sea Eagles are carrying washed up forwards on the bench and when they get on the field they fall asleep, no effort, missed tackles and no want. Bring on young up and comers who will put in. Munster played his Butt off and gave some lessons to the Manly 6 and 7. The Manly Backs looked uninterested as well and maybe they are finished for the Season. I like many thought hat the previous Manly Coach was to blame but the lack of effort by the team lately says the problem lies a bit deeper. Anyway, the future looks bright for Rugby League in WA. Smart move as demographically the people who live in the west following the mining boom come from all over Australia!
Roosters 20 - 18 Bulldogs
OUR TIP: Roosters by 6 LOSS
Again some odd Refereeing moments, Roosters had a forward pass pulled up, Bulldogs threw over 5 forward passes, none pulled up, go figure! Roosters were their own worst enemies but got the job done as good sides always find a way to win! As I said last week Radley is in career best form and Butcher is back to his best. Ciraldos continuing to play Galvin at seven has again punished his team ,as yes he scored a good try but left 2 or 3 in the bag by not knowing who to pass too! Who gets punished by this the Team, Arrogance has cost the Bulldogs a semis spot and the Team and Supporters suffer for the Ego of the Coach. Anyway, its their decision to live with Robert Toia has to be the best Defensive Centre in the Comp and his attack has improved in leaps and bounds as well. DCE being signed by the Roosters was questioned as well but Manlys poor form was not his fault it was the previous Coaches non ability!
Warriors 28 - 12 Panthers
OUR TIP: Panthers by 2 WIN
The Refereeing was terrible but the better side won on the night. The Panthers were Crucified early by Referees and Bunker not making calls and this led to the early field position for the Warriors, which eventually probably led to Yeos injury around fatigue. We won this game so it is not sour grapes, it is factual cheat flow refereeing! Endorsed by Corrupt Flow Advocate Annesley!
Titans 8 - 30 Cowboys
OUR TIP: Titans by 1 LOSS
Titans were terrible and the Titans Coach to have his side playing Bazball when they dont have that ability was dumb. The Titans were shot Dogs at kick off and to not have a number seven to get you around the field when you have a play the moment six, was even dumber. This game just may have secured a spot in the finals for the Cowboys but if you cant win a Comp after having 50 put on you, can you win a semi after being lapped having 80 put on you? Did the Cowboys hand over their Colours to the Titans so they would defend as the Cowboys did last week? Five minutes into the game it was always going to be one way traffic and to get flogged by a side that got flogged by 70 the week before has no excuse, except the Coach stuffed up his selections. one more thing, If you have to play games with your run on team, you do not have confidence in not naming who is running on. The players not named for any reason have no Faith that the Coach has Faith in them. Hopefully lesson learnt by Hannay!

From The Author

BestLeagueRatings is a time proven Rugby League Rating System which was created around 30 years ago to take the emotional side out of your Rugby League Selections.

This system of Ratings has been pursued by Gambling Agencies but the Owner, Creator has stayed loyal to grass roots Rugby League Supporters.

The Owner has been offered deals by a few large Gambling Agencies but along with his upbringing would prefer to support the battlers.

Time now for making this successful formula open to all, where a subscriber can enter their own intuitive Player Ratings into BLRs unique stats formula and get a predicted game margin based on their input, as well as a Professional BLR game rating.

Years ago confronted by a renowned Journalist about who did my player ratings, when I replied "I did", the Journalist rolled his eyes to his Journalist mate to which I replied, "If you have to play 1st grade NRL to know anything about League, we would have a lot of empty newspapers."

A First Grade, Australian Rep sitting with us put the Journo in his place as well.

Any way the time is right now for the Player Rating side of the formula to be opened to Rugby League Supporters.

02.08.26

Eels Vs Tigers

16 - 13

OUR TIP: Tigers by 2 WIN
One of the worse games of the season, mistake wise but an exciting contest that kept you on the edge of your seat! The Eels were entitled to rip the Tigers apart but dont have the Cattle to do it and obviously too the Tigers dont have the Cattle to close out games. A credit to the Tigers to find a solution to their shit fortnight and have a dig but there still looked to be a chasm between some of the players. The Eels got the job done and probably saved their Coach from jumping through the window of the Coaches Box with their late try! The two Tiger tries should never have been scored, just crap defence but also the Tigers probably left 3 or 4 tries on the field. Why do sides play their home games at the home field of their opposing side, if it is for money, it is punishing their own fans and team and could cost a semis spot, it is Dumb! If the Eels did not have effort man Williams, they would have got beat yesterday!
02.08.26

Sharks Vs Rabbitohs

32 - 16

OUR TIP: Sharks by 14 WIN
The Sharks were hot and cold against the Rabbits but the understrength Rabbits were not good enough to catch them out, Good to see Hynes has got his Storm swagger back and finally the sharks 6 and 7 are not trying to eat each other! Kennedy is one of the best Fullbacks in the Comp and if the Sharks can manage to go on and win the Comp he will get that recognition. A good job too by the Sharks Coach to finally get the Sharks playing to their potential. Souths were brave as usual but did not have the Cattle to win against a good side. I am no Bennett but playing Campbell Graham at Centre and Young Latrelle at Wing makes more sense to me. I also think Mamouzelos and Humphreys offer more than Brandon Smith at 9. The Sharks braved it out with both starting Centres off the field, something that has been missing till this season, GRIT!
01.08.26

Titans Vs Warriors

6 - 42

OUR TIP: Warriors by 7 WIN
The Titans got a wake up call to where they really are after playing an out of Form Manly and a non achieving Dragons sides over the last two weeks. This probably came a good time for the Titans so they do not get ahead of where they really are. The Warriors really went up a level from their recent form and obviously the Coach has them timing their run into the Finals, good coaching! The Titans roster is good not great and this is what is needed to take that next step! The Warriors ask a lot more questions with Halasima on the Park and he needs to be there to lengthen their finals run!
31.07.26

Storm Vs Bulldogs

22 - 36

OUR TIP: Bulldogs by 11 WIN
Bulldogs to good on the night for the injury ravaged Storm but still the their seven played like a six and if they do not watch out, they will be at sixes and sevens against the better sides. The Telegraphing of Galvin's game will get one of his runners poleaxed and it will be the Coaching Staffs fault! The Storm were very honest as usual and the game time with all their top notch players out will be of benefit next Season. The Storm bench and overall side will be much better if Katoa makes it back and now with Coates to come back hopefully and the young forwards coming on they will be back challenging again.
30.07.26

Cowboys Vs Roosters

12 - 82

OUR TIP: Roosters by 5 WIN
If the Tigers were off with the Coach and that is the reason they got flogged by Canberra, what has the Cowboys Coach done behind the scenes for this Result to occur, there is a common denominator between the two Coaches as well, just food for thought! A side to get beat by a modern day record score needs an explanation, not an apology! The Roosters played very smart push forward football, which the Dolphins have been playing all season and reaped the benefits but personally I just do not understand how it happened against a side that was aiming for a finals spot. The Roosters too were without Collins, so have more upside and the recent form of Radley too has improved their attack no end. Anyway it is history now and nothing will change it!
26.07.26

Sea Eagles Vs Sharks

12 - 48

OUR TIP: Sharks by 9 WIN
A knock on Manly this game or a wrap on the Sharks who seem to finally have taken that next step? Manly at home on a Sunday afternoon were abysmal, started well enough but fell off the perch. The Confidence in the Sharks to start Fonua-Blake off the bench, shows just how far they have come. Brailey has gone to another level as have some of the young forwards coming through the ranks. The big improver though is Hynes who is playing like the bloke they got from the Storm in dictating games and making right decisions. The entire Sharks back line has never played better and this has a lot to do with the Coaching that is going on down the shire. One significance that may have been missed, is the fact that the Manly decline has come at the same time as losing Brooks. Anyway the season is done and dusted for the Sea Eagles in 2026 and time to shop around for a good defensive Centre and strengthen the Bench, Oh and a first grade standard Hooker. The older Brailey Boy down at Canberra would be a great Manly fit for them in 2027!
