Part of the fun of leading the comp.
Also I note that this match, being played in the graveyard slot of Monday night although clearly the match of the round, has comfortably more posts on this game-day thread than all other games in the round combined. Something to consider as you settle down on Sunday afternoon in front of Channel 9 to watch the Sharks-Newcastle blockbuster spoonfest. And maybe the NRL and Channel 9 when they get their ratings and crowd figures for this round will give some thought to when they program matches as well. Doing it on last year's finishing positions isn't really working.
This game gets 17,000 on Sunday afternoon. It will be lucky to get 10,000 on Monday. Not only have they got a miserable offering on FTA (unless you happen to support one of those sides) but they've destroyed the crowd of an excellent game in the bargain. Shoot yourself in the foot anyone?
