Shute Shield 2020

Yes. No piles of mud available at Manly Oval.

No rain for a while, eh? I remember playing there in mud up to my ankles. High tide!

 

[Eyes and Ears]

Plenty of rain coming this weekend.

Fixtures this week:

Easts vs Eastwood
West Harbour vs Randwick
Uni vs Penrith
Manly vs Wildfires
Southern vs Two Blues
Gordon vs Warringah

 

[Up the Guts]

Gordon vs Warringah and Easts vs Eastwood the troubling ones for tipping. My tips:

Eastwood
Randwick
Uni
Manly
Southern
Gordon

I think the rain will help the Rats though.

Ive seen Easts, they are not far off the pace.

Im going for an upset for Parramatta. They held Randwick to Nil all at half time last week. In the rain, who knows

Would love to see it. Maybe at home, but not away, I reckon.

Agree. But going to take a chance on Gordon getting it done at home.

 

[molman]

Nice start for Gordon.

 

[Up the Guts]

Gordon tip looking good

 

[wamberal]

Agree. But going to take a chance on Gordon getting it done at home.

At this stage it does not look too chancy!!!

 

[Up the Guts]

Gordon are putting the competition on notice.

 

[Number 7]

Bloody hell - Newcastle drew with Manly!

Not the shellacking I was expecting. Rats scrum was dire.

Gordon are putting the competition on notice.

That they are.

Love'd Ward's post game interview. Not a happy camper.

 

[molman]

Bloody hell - Newcastle drew with Manly!

Yep, that's going to blow my tips, did not expect that at home for Manly. Woodies edging Easts at home too is a good result for them, another I didn't pick.

 

[Up the Guts]

Tipping results round 4:

HB 2/6
Qwerty 4/6
Azzuri 4/6
Molman 4/6
UTG 5/6

 

[Up the Guts]

Manly-Newcastle draw untippable. Pretty pleased with my Woodies tip.

without getting ahead of things, its great to see the Stags back. They had some tough, tough years on and off the paddock circa 10 years ago and there has been a huge amount of work done to get things back on track. There is a huge amount of latent support on the north shore that will start flocking back to the game if the staggies are genuine contenders.
it had been a bit sad watching them with one colts team a few years ago - now they are a genuine chance of the club champs and are coming third.
