Speedy: What is the latest with the RFL?
Liam: Well, it is a bit up in the air at the moment. The Swans and Narrandera both pulled out on Friday from the RFL then with a few of Farrer League teams.
Speedy: You'd have to think both of those competitions are pretty much dead then.
Liam: They were thinking about running a combined competition with the sides that remained, but I feel the curtain will fall this week.
Speedy: Did you watch the Melbourne and Canberra game on Saturday night.
Liam: I'm trying to forget about that one Speed. My head nearly exploded during that game. The Bunker had a stinker but then again what else is new.
Speedy: The Canberra bloke (Bailey Simonsson) that got sin-binned I have no idea what he got it for unless he turned up late for school. He didn't do anything. His eyes were on the ball.
Liam: If anything Addo-Carr ran into him to initiate the contact and then took a dive to make it look convincing and win the penalty.
Speedy: I was surprised to see St George give Manly a touch-up on Sunday.
Liam: Daly Cherry-Evans had the worst game that I have ever seen. Dropped two simple passes and throw and intercept even after checking who was around him that the Dragons scored from.
Speedy: The mighty Rabbitohs picked up a win.
Liam: They did, but it looks like they will be without Latrell Mitchell for at least two weeks.
Speedy: They play Knights on Saturday, and I think I'll sit back in front of the fire at home and watch that.
Liam: Sounds like you are all set.
Speedy: I'll be set, but I'm not sure about Souths. They are missing that big leader, a Sam Burgess type if you will and as much as it pains me to say it, I don't think we can win it this year.
