What's your gut feeling about how the finals will unfold?. Finals are decided by very small margins. AN injury here, a bounce of the ball there, heaven forbid a refs error (quite likely). The overall winner will no doubt need all these coin flips to fall their way. I think this season the Top 5 are all extremely quality outfits. Been a while since you could genuinely say that. You could mount a case for any of the Top 5, with the Warriors a genuine smokey at 6. The Cows and Knights can't win it in my opinion.
Now this is only my opinion and I declare I'm a Tigers fan. My gut feeling is we might be watching the best 2 equipped teams this Friday night. Or the Teams with the right momentum in terms of troops available. I don't think Saints or Wests are better sides then the Top 3, rather equal sides with the cards falling their way in terms of the small details. Now of course this can all change from week to week. Whilst the Top 3 are all formidable sides that could easily win the Premiership they seem to be having a few issues at the wrong time of year. My gut feel is Friday nights game will be a belter and decided in the last 5 minutes. I reckon the loser will survive the chop ( of course you can't rely on this, just a gut feel) and from there I reckon both sides might line up again in October for the prize. Maybe a long shot but thats my stab at it.
The game between Wests and Saints earlier in the year had that smell about it, that there was a battle or perhaps 2 more to follow.
Anyway for mine you could make a genuine case for any of the Top 6.. Interested to here your thoughts
