is this going to be the best final series ever?

[bmwpower]

with the competition so close it could be anyones this year. what are your thoughts does this potentially shape to be the best final series ever. if not what do you think was

 

[Jason Maher]

I don't know if it will be the best. That probably depends on who you follow. But I think it will be the most unpredictable finals series we've seen in a while.

first week of finals is shaping up to be a beauty!


Dragons v Eels rematch

Bulldogs v Knights

Titans v Broncos Little brother against big brother

Storm v Manly Grand Final rematch



/salivating homer style

I hope so.

I think that results are definitely unpredictable, but I hope that we see great/contestable matches along the way, and not one team blowing the other off the park via 75% possession flow in the first 25 minutes.

Newcastle I feel is the let down for the 8. I think a team like the Tigers would of been better, however thats how the dice is rolled. Good Luck to all!

 

[NK Arsenal]

Yep.

I don't give a f**k who wins to be honest as long as we see some high quality footy

 

[nathanbrown'sghost]

Shaping up nicely, although agree it does depend on who you support. Can't see too many Roosters (etc.) fans getting excited. Wait to see if the refs f**k up a games result.:crazy:

I think some people forget that the Knights have beaten the Dragons (at home), the Bulldogs, The Titans, the Eagles, the Storm and the Broncos this year. The Knights well and truly deserve their spot in the 8.

I think when it comes to our refs its more like when then if

 

[I Bleed Green]

My team ain't in the finals but I can't genuinely wait for next weekend ... 4 cracker matches!!!

I definitely think this will be the best finals series seen in quite some time.

F*ck me you are illiterate.

Re the finals - it will be sh*t unless Para win. ;-)

Seriously. Eels out, who do you go for? Knights won't get far, leaving St George and 4 sh*t teams you wouldn't piss on. If they become the final 4, I'm going camping on the long weekend.

Makes no sense, the best 8 teams made it the Knights are a much better side then the Tigers and deserve their spot

+1

Never thought I would be going for the Broncos, but I was just after fulltime at EAS today. ANZ stadium here we come!!!

 

[j0nesy]

Actually I think they'll beat the Kimmorleyless doggies.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

I think some people forget that the Knights have beaten the Dragons (at home), the Bulldogs, The Titans, the Eagles, the Storm and the Broncos this year. The Knights well and truly deserve their spot in the 8.

And lost to just about every team outside the top 8 except the Sharks. I guess interpretation of the Knights depends on the individual and whether or not they're a glass half empty or glass half full kind of person.

At the end of the day the Knights ended up on 30 points, the Tigers 28 so I fail to see how the Tigers deserve to be in the 8 ahead of the Knights.

I can see the Knights pushing the Dogs all the way, and that's if they don't beat them. The Knights have the players to beat the Dogs who look pretty vulnerable without Kimmorley.

Looking at the matches it could be a brutal final series. I think every team outside of the top 2 should be taking the sudden death attitude this week because this year there's no sure thing. Wouldn't be surprised in the least to see the loser of Storm V Manly drop out.

 

[pantherz9103]

Struggling to care to be honest. My guts have been ripped out my seeing my panthetic team miss the finals for 5 straight years. But I'm a loser who'll probably end up watching them for something to do anyway, and get pissed big time. I'm a big time Titans and Storm fan on the weekend, not for them but because I loathe the clubs drenched in maroon filth so much. I'd like to see the Titans go well in their first finals series. My money would be on the Dragons at this stage due to last week's turnaround. Value tip is for Storm to win the comp. If Manly or Brisbane win the comp I'll refuse to acknowledge that the year ever happened.

Haha, only a good 7-8 weeks ago your team was down in the 'laughing stocks' category with Cronulla and the Roosters :lol: Honestly, the Tigers sucked a*se for 2/3 of the season and finally found form late. Must be annoying for you guys, finally show your potential and miss out yet again. May as well have come last :lol:
