A nice sunny day in Melbourne with no wind...

Storm will need to control the middle of the park but this is easier said than done with Scott, Taumalolo, Tamou running straight and hard.

Chambers and Mann will need to be on their game in the centres with Koroibete doubtful and Storm will need to try and play the game fast to have a chance IMO.

Which way will it go...Thurston should be able to win it for the Cows with his tactical nous and I think they might just sneak over the line in Melbourne. Having said that Smith and Cronk have hit red hot form as well...who knows ?.

I'd be confident in a Cows win if it wasn't being played in Melbourne. Storm always lift down there and the Cowboys are renown for not being able to take their show on the road. They have been better with it this year, but a prelim @ AAMI will be a big test for them. I'll still tip the Cows.

Cowboys by 20 plus.

storm have been in great nick since losing to the knights, but...I don't see It continuing.

Cowboys have been a stellar team (apart from first 3-4 rounds) and will have too much attacking class across the field for Melbourne to contain.

FT: 32-12
MOM: Morgan
FTS: Linnett

The Cows would want to hope the refs have gotten their f**k ups out of the way in the 20s.
Couple of dud calls against them.

NYC : Manly def Cows 25-24.

Penrith V Manly GF.

The Cows were well below their best today more than Manly being great in a lackluster game of football.

Cows scored 4 tries to 3 and still got done.

Anybody else on the "Anyone but Melbourne" train?

Can't stand the salary cap cheats and their WrestleMania style. Up the Cowboys, hope JT wins his first premiership as a starting half.
