Which team do you least want to play in the semis

[friend10]

Melbourne
Manly or
Bulldogs

I fear Melbourne because of there rush up defense on sowards passes
and also dogs due to forward pack
Manly would be the easiest

 

[Panther Pete]

Melbourne, with their 3 players on board they are as good as any team left.

 

[Doomednow]

misread the thread.

 

[The Teach]

I don't care. We beat the dogs and should've beaten both the storm and manly so none of them are unbeatable.

 

[pantherz9103]

Manly look busted.

Hate playing the Storm because we never seem to beat them, while we go well against the Dogs but if they got to play us then they would obviously be in form.

No easy way to a GF but looks a hell of a lot more possible than it did a few hours ago.

 

[friend10]

Yeah I rather take any of them on then the roosters.

 

[Blues Riff]

There's not much between the 3, but probably the Storm. They seem to get away with shit against us.

Manly, Dogs then Melbourne. Manly are busted but not to be underestimated, Dogs ran out of premiership steam 2 months ago but are still dangerous, Melbourne are the real danger.

I'll be willing both packs tomorrow to rip in and decimate each other.

I don't care who we play. If the team plays with the same determination as they have this year then they can beat anyone. f**k I am proud of that effort last night.

Manly's forward pack is soft and our pack could punish them in the form they are in. Bulldogs have no spark in attack and a weak spine IMO. Melbourne it is by process of elimination, don't really fear them that much.

 

[friend10]

So Dogs or Manly now? I prefer Dogs dues to lack of spark and lack of Matai but they have Lafai and they have a broken down Josh Morris which we can target

 

[maple_69]

So if I'm right Klemmer and Morris may be in trouble with the judiciary. Ennis was injured? O'Hanlon obviously definitely out for them.
Manly likely to have Ballin back for us. Buhrer and Glenn Stewart out. Watmough probably in trouble with the judiciary as well.

Man I should have put 10 bucks on Penrith to win the premiership when they were 26 dollars about 5 weeks ago. Sighs. There looking good I tell you. 6 bucks now is too low for me.

 

[Frankus]

We'll I got on Penrith to beat the Roosters when they were paying 4.90 last Monday. Happy days.

I actually tipped the Dogs to beat Melbourne. Des is a very good coach, they have a very good pack and halves pairing. Many will say Melbourne didn't show up for the first 20 minutes but the Dogs gave them absolutely nothing. Taught them a lesson in finals football.

 

[friend10]

Good on ya mate. How much did you put on them. I put 5 bucks on them against the dogs when soward threw that cut out pass to mansour in the final minutes

Many will say Melbourne didn't show up for the first 20 minutes but the Dogs gave them absolutely nothing. Taught them a lesson in finals football.

Melbourne didn't turn up for the game. Their defence was just shattered across the park in the first 20. Dogs to their credit took full advantage and kept the foot on the throat. It's odd, of all the teams left with their wealth of big game experience, it's ours that you'd back in to turn up for a footy game.

Very true although, having watched the game again quickly last night, Melbourne played with 12 men. Cameron Smith was a passenger, they would have been better served with someone else.
