With large lines in the majority of matches and Greg Oberscheidt and Cliff Bingham looking to recover from a 2-6 effort last week, will the boys play favourites and get behind the underdogs?
The 2014 Willie M Medal: Round 8
While top three spots on the 2014 Willie M Medal leaderboard remained unchanged in Round 8, Ben Barba and Bill Tupou have edged a little closer to having their name etched in both infamy and ignominy.

However Blake Ayshford, he of the dubious speed and even more dubious hands, has lost his spot atop the medal count. That honour now falls […]
ANZ Stadium v Suburban Grounds
Put up your hand if you were one of the 50, 668 fans who attended the game between the Wests Tigers and Parramatta Eels yesterday? If you were well done. I was so proud to be part of such a passionate, energetic and electric crowd. It was one of the best atmosphere’s for a game […]
