Rumours and Stuff

[hindy111]

Tigers are close to 4-1. I reckon its good odds. I would of expected about 2.40

Home city not home ground.
It would be Homebush.

Bankwest is able to host semi’s due to capacity and facilities. We lose first round to Penrith we play the following week at Bankwest

If we don't finish 4th and finish 5th say we beat the sharks in week 1 we will be versing Melbourne or roosters in week 2 potentially without Dylan Brown. Finish top 4 and go all out against panthers. If we win we get a week off if we lose we still get a home semi against most likely south's or knights.

A top four finish is a must!!!!

Don't we play the winner of 5th vs 8th if we finish 4th?

Surely Turbo doesn't play origin. I feel he owes it to Manly to just sit it out and try and build his body up. Plus he hasn't earned his spot.

 

[Mr Parramatta]

Do we get any home games finishing 4th?

If we lost our first game, our next game would be a home game.

If we win, we get the week off and the GF qualifier would be a home game (though it might get moved to Homebush)

I can't remember where I read it but I believe V'Landys wants all Sydney finals to be played at ANZ to maximise the people that can attend.

Ok thank you, second option sounds perfect

I got on them at $3.75 as soon as it opened. If I keep death riding them I'll win eventually.

I don't think week 3 of the finals would be at home unless you won in week 1.

FFS V'Landy's!!!

I thought that was what I said in the second option?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Oh yeah you did. I thought you were referring to winning in week two but I see you mentioned the week off as well which is mutually exclusive with playing in week two.

As you were.

Since losing to the Tigers only matters if Canberra also win I've multied these two results together to use this free power play thingy they've given me. It's paying just over $5

he said that was what he wanted, but that’s not what ended up being resolved/decided. Mainly because it meant Penrith would miss out on a home final at the Riff and Gus wouldn’t have been happy...

 

[Arbitaar1]

Don't we play the winner of 5th vs 8th if we finish 4th?

Sorry yeah you are right. We would be avoiding roosters and Melbourne until week 3.

Still a top 4 finish just gives us so much more of an advantage. If we won week 1. Possibly a prelim at bankwest.

Given week 1 of the Finals is the October long weekend, I'm surprised they're not scheduling the Sunday game for 6 or 7pm instead of 4pm

 

[Soren Lorenson]

So if we are in the second week, it's Friday night.
