This will be the easiest finals match to tip.

The Eels can't win after week 1 of finals. Or perhaps they can't win matches that can get them to week 3.

Either way. Raiders have already won this.

Not sure on Knights, but Holbrook is signed until the end of 2024 I believe. I do agree that BA could good for the Titans or Knights though.

If we let BA's contract expire, the Titans would be mad not to sign him up if they have another bad year.
BA strikes me as his generation's Brian Smith - he improves a club, getting them into shape where they're regularly in the playoffs.. BUT he doesn't seem to have the x-factor that gets the mental side right for sudden death footy.

The Raiders have never been behind at the conclusion of 80 minutes of play at Commbank Stadium - and that golden point loss to the Eels should have been a win due to the try stolen from us by Klein for a “forward” pass that wasn’t even flat, it went back.

I expect we’ll maintain our perfect 80 minute record again, and knock the Eels out in what is the first ever finals meeting between the two clubs.
No shit, first ever finals meeting between the clubs?

Stats like that trip me out.
They've been playing against each other since the early 80's, how has it not happened yet? CRaZyyy

Wonder how many other other combos are left....probably Tigers v most teams

Smithy at least got teams to the Grand Final. BA hasn't even got us to a prelim. Now or never for BA.

It's choke time for Parra. Moses likely to be missing, Canberra flying high after shipping the Scum off on their own turf, and BA always one sneeze away from hitting the bricks.
