May I just quietly say: I tipped 8 from 8 in the NRL this week. Never done that before and I’ve been tipping for years. This is a happy moment.... #NRL – at Brisbane, Queensland

#NRL Well. After what I thought was a strong off-season where I studied the changes to the teams, paid attention to injuries etc, I find myself 0-3 in the NRL footy tipping. This is appalling. I may need to sack the coach and start again…
