Storm 13+ $4.75. That's very juicy. Lock it in. Put your house on it.

I cannot see the Sharks winning this. The Storm are better all over the field. Cameron Smith hasn't lost a grand final since 2006. Better spine, better forwards, better backs. The Sharks have been lucky to get this far.

Here's hoping every player on the field sings the national anthem loud and proud tonight.

F**k off.

Match ups mean sweet f**k all. What it comes down to is who wants it more. Forget the rest.
You out of anyone should know that, considering your beloved Swans got dealt to yesterday. At best it will be close, anyone thinking otherwise is a f**king moron.

I've just remembered that the Red Hot Chilli Peppers have a song from their Californication album called "Purple Stain".

Maybe RHCP should have been the pre match entertainment and played this song. What a hoot!!

Since 2004, last year was the only final where the final margin was less than a try. More often than not one team has been clearly too good.

In what way? Very good and consistent hroughout the season including a run of 16 wins, a gutsy win away from home in their first final followed by a dominant display last week.

The best 2 teams of the season are on the grand final. Sharks are a big show.

As much as we lost to them in 2009 and we know why, I am sick of the "all of Sydney is behind the Sharks" hype....it was boring 3 days ago.

So I hope the Storm win......

You cannot compare margins from different teams just because it's a GF. To do so is not looking truly at the statistics.
If you're going to do that, then last time Storm won they beat us by 10 points. (not to mention with Slater)

Therefore, the comparison should be between the Sharks and our 2012 squad. I would say they are pretty even actually, but with the edge going to Cronulla with more support and winning "that" elusive title. You're dreaming if you think that Cronulla will leak that many points when they clearly want it more. Like I said, go check the result in the AFL yesterday, champ.

Nah, it'll be a Coopercronk voice over ": The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side. See, I'm an intellectual".

Hate to be a Lebanese man in Cronulla should the Sharks lose.

Oh f**k!! Congrats Cronulla, you earned it. Now to find Harold Holt.

Read the paper today, was talk of refs getting carried away by the fairytale yesterday and giving the bulldogs the leg up. I don't understand that other game so no sure if this was true but this has happened before in the NRL and could very well be a factor today.

If storm are to win the will need to get ahead early and control the game
