.....on Saturday night when Souths win their first finals game since 1987 against an average Raiders team.

You heard it here first!!!!
Oh how I hope you are right.

I think we're better than them and we should win but finals games aren't won on paper. It's going to be a miserable 6 days waiting.

Bad luck Sharkies. I know I was taking the piss out of you guys back in Game thread but I really wanted a Sharks/Souths finals.

It was the most exciting contest of the finals week though, I give you that.

I will say once again what I've been saying since I first saw Sam Williams lace on the boots for the mighty Cooma Colts - going to be a champion.

He's improved out of site. I thought he looked like a 200 game veteran our there today.

WIll be an interesting battle, Williams vs A. Reynolds.

Exactly, Canberra is going to be up against the NRL and the refs, which will make their victory even better if they win.

LOL. When was the last time you had an 1-8 penalty count in the first half like we did?

Unless mistaken I don't think Canberra have won a semi final game (not qualifying final) since 1991 so either way someones going to end a long time drought.

Well, since we won the whole thing in 1994 you're a bit wrong there.

We also won our first two and bombed out in the GF qualifier in 97.

Fun fact: last time Souths won a finals game, Locomotion by Kylie Minogue was on top of the ARIA music charts. Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up was top of the British music charts.

I just can't see Raiders winning (unfortunately).

That might also be due to the fact I still can't believe they made the finals, let alone a home final.

The last time we won a finals match the following Rabbitohs weren't born:

Sam Burgess
Jason Clark
Dylan Farrell
Nathan Peats
Eddy Pettybourne
Adam Reynolds
Dave Taylor
Dave Tyrrell

Makes for awesome reading...:crazy:
