One team, for which that comes as little surprise, was the Warriors. They had so much to play for, were playing at home and had been playing some good footy, yet they went to the break down 31-6.But thats just where the Warriors are at as a football side and why you can never tip them with any great confidence. They proved to us at the weekend that they can still break your heart even when you think they may have just nailed down a winning formula. It must be pure hell for their fans.Dragons, Bunnies finally find some attackSomething that was great to see was a couple of sides playing some football, and by that I mean ad-lib football. St George Illawarra, on the back of having three of their better players return from injury, went out and threw the ball around and came up with 32 points. It was a local derby against the Sharks which sometimes means the form guide goes out the window, but the Dragons actually played a really good style of football that was nice to watch for a change.I think they only scored above 20 points four times last year, so it was good to see them produce some quality attack. Souths, meanwhile, were a different side with Adam Reynolds running game on song. The Bunnies also played a little bit more ad-lib football, and I think Damian Cook changes the side a lot due to the fact hes an active dummy-half and can draw in some defenders. The other big change was Greg Inglis move back to fullback; they just got the balance of their spine correct. So it made for a nice change watching both the Dragons and Bunnies this weekend.Bulldogs are the gurus of Golden PointThe Bulldogs continue to get it done in Golden Point. Again, it looked like they were beaten in the last 10 minutes against Manly on Thursday night; they looked shot. But as soon as it goes to Golden Point, they just seem to have this knack of being able to get away with the win.I think theyve had 12 Golden Point games over the last couple of seasons of which theyve won nine, while another one ended in a draw. Thats a pretty good record. Youve got to give a lot of credit to Des Hasler for that record; theyre such a well-drilled side who can handle the prressure.dddddddddddd And they obviously know how to work towards a Golden Point win - thats a good skill to have as we get edge closer to the semi-finals.Just run the ball, AnthonyAfter an extended period of below-par performances, Broncos five-eighth Anthony Milford is well and truly back to form. Brisbane have been a shadow of the side that started the season so well recently, but they finally rediscovered that kind of footy against the Eels.It was pretty simple really; it was Milford running the football. There was no magic switch or piece of rocket science to the Broncos ball-playing, they just backed Milford to run the ball and it paid off big time. They scored some nice tries and it seemed like he had more energy about him and just wanted to get the ball in his hands.So that was a nice sign if youre a Brisbane fan and it looks like they might have got out of their rut at just the right time.Top four looks all but certainWhile we still have Canberras clash with Melbourne to come on Monday night, Im going to say that the top four looks like its settled. If the Raiders win on Monday night there will be a five-point gap between team four and team five, and with the top-four being such an important finish in our game - due to the second chance it gives you - we may well have our genuine premiership hopes before us.It certainly looks like the top four is all but sorted to me, and I guess that just leaves the others to fight it out for positions five through eight to see whos going to finish where.Hayne Plane delivers in Sydneys westTwo sell-out crowds and two amazing atmospheres: how good is it having Jarryd Hayne back in the NRL? That looked like a sensational afternoon in Campbelltown on Saturday. Obviously hes probably not where he needs to be fitness-wise to play fullback just yet, but regardless he is still a very special football player.To see what he did last week after being out of the game for 18 months, and to back it up this weekend, at five-eighth, is just extraordinary. Defensively, his edge looks so controlled and then nailing that field goal with seven seconds left just goes to show the reason why we love having him back in the NRL.He is a very special football player, and on the back of that the Titans are set for some ride - one they hope will end with a trip to the semi-finals. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
