The two best club sides in the sport meet in an exhibition game before a packed house at a neutral venue. If these sides do not finish 1 and 2 for the 3rd year running it won't be due to the result of this game. Storm have been on fire to say the least and we've been a bit flat, but they've lost a couple of critical players and that brings them back to the pack a bit. I have no idea who wins this, but its of little importance anyway.

 

[Fangs]

This will be a blast.

And all Rugby League fans are hoping those dirty cheats from down south don't get up in this one.

 

[azza29]

Can’t wait to see these two sides sharpen up on Saturday night.

Filthy that this was the game Melbourne sold off for Magic Round though…

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Scum to do over the Smug by 8

 

[Dodgy]

I'm from Melbourne and I'm filthy this is the game that's taken to Brisbane.

Panthers by 30!

 

[Someone2]

Panthers will be battered and bruised from the Eels match

I have a feeling storm will get close to 50 here (even without paps)

Nah Panthers can defend.

 

[ACTPanthers]

Get on the Storm now - Paying pretty good at the bookies - I've already thrown a sneaky fiddy on them.

On the actual game, I hope that the loss against the Eels will be the kick up the arse we need to actually start playing like defending premiers.

 

[pantherz9103]

On form, Storm are clear favourites but no Papenhauzen gives me hope.

Paps has been one of your best, why wouldn't you want him out there?

 

[Smug Panther]

Game of the regular season here. Our defence should see us home as long as Tago and May are soild enough.

 

[GongPanther]

Storm will be running into a side which will fluster their attack which has been playing ad lib football for most of this season. Pretty hard to split the decision with this one, but if going on defense, I'd say we can contain them and manage to keep them contained which can lead to poor ball security. If we can be that side from the 2021 finals again, we might get away with a 20-12 win.

A great spectacle for the neutrals, a crazy ride for both sets of fans.

Condolences to Storm fans.

[This Year?]

This contest will be one for the aficionados. Whoever wins will be less than a converted try.

 

[Perth Red]

No papps means less points. Panthers on goal kicks sadly. Maybe they should just hand the premiership trophy out to the winner of this game and save some time?

 

[moffla]

Is it even Magic Round without Paps? May as well just call it "Round".

I'm expecting a tight loss here. I'm very keen to watch us play a game where we are not blowing the opposition away by 40 or 50 points. In the long run those games don't exactly make you battle heartened.

I'm pissed off that we are losing a home ground advantage for a predictable top of the table clash, but money talks!
