Broncos 32 Tits 16.Broncos in very sound form,and at home should get the chokkies.

Raiders 42 Sharks 16. Absolutely no way the Sharkies will recover from that game with the Storm.This is too much of an ask.

Panthers 20 Dogs 12.Simply using the Occam's Razor approach.Form will dictate who wins this,and not past glories.Will be an entertaining spectacle.

Cows 32 Storm 18. Matt Scott back after a restful period after a broken finger will be a blessing.Storm will be a little worn from their battle with the Sharkies.

Whatever happens for the 2nd week?....I'd rather wait till after this weekend.

Unless Wighton gets off it's now a two horse race.

Storm vs Cowboys will be the GF with the Storm to win.

As much as I'd love Cows to go back to back I'm not confident.
So I'll go Storm vs Broncos GF with a Storm victory.

I think it will be Storm V Raiders in the GF. It could go either way, but I'll say Melbourne to win it.

Everyone is playing for 2nd prize as the Broncos will win the war.

They don't even have to make the GF.

If the Broncos get to the GF i'd like it to be VS the Sharks or Dogs.

Other than that a Cowboys/Raiders GF would be great viewing (so long as the Raiders don't save their worst for last)

Raiders v Panthers.

Raiders by 7 points, cueing a massive revival in all things 1990s, including a major comeback of grunge music.

Or not. ;)

You'd have to think the Storm are the surest bet for a GF spot. Their opponent? Anyone's guess. The Raiders are the other form side but are an unknown quantity in finals footy. They lose tomorrow, they will move to the other side of the ledger & need to beat the Storm to make the grand final. Not unheard of for the Raiders, but so much big game experience vs so little could be telling. But will assume the Raiders will beat the Sharks.

The Cowboys? Not convinced. JT seems to have been off his game. But probably the Raiders' biggest obstacle.

Sharks? They weren't playing great before their winning streak was broken, and haven't really been on the ball since. I think their race is run.

Bottom 4? No chance - the quality within the top four is too superior. Brisbane will go the furtherest but have not been particularly impressive.

Hoping it's not Storm v Cowboys (yawn). Expecting Storm v Raiders if the green machine can handle the pressure. The result? Heart hopes for Raiders by more than a converted try. It'd be a great end to the fairy tale for Sticky & a very entertaining young team. Head says the big game experience will see the Storm grind them into the turf & win by 14.

I'd have to know what Turdy, judiciary and referees prefer to happen in the 'finals' before committing an opinion on what the teams might do . . . might have an educated guess on gf day
