Okay so we were on track for 7/8 after the first 5 games of Round 9... but we swung and missed on the Knights and Sharks (the latter tip hurt because well... Hayne plays for the Eels) but 6/8 in back to back weeks is nothing to sneeze at with www.wdnicolson.com's NRL Tips.The last full NRL Round before the less than stellar portion of the year begins - is also #WomenInLeague Round where Mr Manu Vatuvei was recognised as the 2014 Favourite Son.
The Postman's Late Mail IS UP NOW!Remember our Game Previews are now purely the essentials in 2014 - I'll try to write very little fluff and you'll simply (entertainingly) get my read on each game and of course the Late Mail.

The 'Special Fried Rice' picks have returned but given it is me v me, every week - I'll just be listing my 'SFR' of the week with the FootyTab Starts as the variation aspect to keep things interesting vs just saying 'this team will win this week - guaranteed'.
HEADS UP: We will have a new episode of NOT The Footy Show - sometime before Origin 1. So keep an eye on your iTunes Podcast folders for Episode 151 in the future. WE HOPE!
*www.wdnicolson.com makes no guarantees this week...
Round 9 Tipping was a very solid 6/8 - So let's get to the Tips!
All tips are subject to last minute changes, Game Odds/FootyTab are from Wednesday night and do not update thereafter. Times listed are stadium location LOCAL time.

FOOTYTAB: MEL +6.5 Teams Analysed on our NRL Injured List
@NRLTweet's PREDICTION:Was initially drawn to the Storm but even as I wrote 'despite Souths crushing the Titans'... I realised I might want to in fact pick Souths. Melbourne more than capable but they must hold the starting Burgesses's and then take advantage of South Sydney's bench... but I just don't think Greg Inglis has a quiet one against his old team. Rabbitohs by 2 points.

HOME - Souths will have Reynolds after he struggled through their last start against the Gold Coast. Still waiting for Tom Burgess to make the bench after a few weeks in NSW Cup.
AWAY - Storm may yet move Mann to five-eighth with Romelo going back to the bench or missing out entirely. This would allow Fonua to come back into first grade or Roberts at five-eighth.
