Hmm, something a bit deflating about seeing the same match-up as last year IMO.
However, there is also a sense of acceptance when teams 1 and 2 make it all the way. You just know that there can be no calls of "Clayton's" or luck involved. Manly and Melbourne have easily been the two best sides all year without question, and both teams and sets of fans deserve it.
Don't particularly minds who wins this one - though I'd LOVE to see Menzies go out a winner so that's basically the only thing tipping me into gunning for Manly a bit... More than anything, I just hope it's a closer contest than '07 regardless of who lifts the trophy.
