What a week it has been. The occasional close game between teams next to each other on the ladder, the odd complete thrashing of teams that must occasionally wonder if they are in the right sport, and another round of exasperated coaches trying to justify their positions, given they know that it is they who are facing the sack and not their underperforming rosters. Oh, and everyone is having next weekend off too, which is a great thing for the NRL... if they are looking to boost the profile of the AFL and the A League.
