Im trying to picture myself if the game went to golden point, i honestly dont think my heart could take that. Im being dead serious aswell, i would probably have to walk out and not watch for health reasons.

I concur, and I don't support either team. Would be very edge-of-your-seat stuff. I want Storm to sh*t it in, but not to the tune they did last year. Keep it close, keep it interesting.

I see it as somewhat unfair for a whole season to be completly worthless with one field goal. Maybe they should bring in the golden try for grand finals or even all sudden death finals only.

Definitely a sentiment I'd agree with, but the war of attrition to get into those positions to strike those field goals - and the fact that kicking a field goal in itself isn't that easy either.

I'm watching the 04 Grand Final in order to get fired up for tomorrow... I hope we see some great action tomorrow. Can't wait for Living End particularly... :D

Im so nervous i just went to limewire to see if i could download the game so i dont have to wait till tomorrow to watch it.

Kinda like at last years grand final i was sitting in the crowd at anz and got several sms messages but i didnt check them cause i didnt want them to tell me the score just incase the live viewing from row 4000 aisle 900 was delayed viewing.

All the way!!!! The Mighty MELBOURNE STORM!!! Back to Back Premiers!

Onya Matty "Boofa" Geyer- a true legend who is retiring, not hogging the press like the other "retiree" who is not retiring, but relocating to Super League!

Effnic,

Completely agreee, a field goal is a ridiculous way to end any match throughout the season.


In my humble opinion, should be either golden try or an extra 10 minutes each way.

GO
