can't wait for this one

 

[TheFrog]

Quite a meaningless match, both will finish in the top 4, probably 1 and 2 (again). A pretty good exhibition match. I'll be watching. If I can stay awake.

Hopefully Melbourne will lift a little for the Roosters, this could be an absolute cracker. Good Friday indeed!

 

[Vic Mackey]

Similar result to the GF here. Storm haven’t been going that well for a while now whilst the Roosters are at the top of their game. Easts by 16.

 

[footy75]

massive...

Storm by 2

 

[TheFrog]

Roosters have been immense but that means little when faced with a formidable opponent. I will tip the Roosters nonetheless, as its usually about this time all teams have lost at least one game.

I thought you said the game was meaningless?

 

[TheFrog]

Of course it's meaningless. It's an exhibition game.

Do you think the loser will miss the top 4, or even the top 2?

The only way this could have bearing on the premiership is if someone gets badly injured.

Ok Einstein. Just a tip - you play for points. The more points you get the higher up the ladder you finish. Therefore every game is important.

And if it's meaningless why are you posting in the game thread about it - haven't you got a Penrith player/coach to defend somewhere?

[moffla]

Reckon we lift for this one. As touched on we've been a bit poor in our past two outings but we will be up for the occasion and being at home gives us that slight edge. Storm 20-18.

 

[Tommy Smith]

It'll be close...

I'll say Melbourne by 6 Cameron Smith forward passes from dummy half.

Or Melbourne by 4 piggy back penalties on the 5th after a Smith whinge.

Not but really, Souffs beat us in rnd 1 because they cared a lot more after we beat them in the Prelim. And the Storm win here because they want revenge for the GF.

But we win the rematches all day every day when it matters in the finals if our stars are fit.

The Popeye Shield in honour of a LU hero and huge fan of ol mate Bellamy who he once dated.

Vince Macmahon brought in to referee this one.

Too easy.

 

[Artiste]

Easts by 14

 

[This Year?]

I just want the Premiers to win because it will cause more butthurt for the 2018 grand finalists.

Meaningless match indeed.

Except in 2010.

I couldn't help myself, sorry

I hope your lot destroy the Storm on Friday, then it will be a Good Friday.
