Eels will win,7 up late in the game.Great result for Storm who now gets a week off & a home prelim final.

Gee it is fine line with that system. Storm win, week off. Manly lose and they are out.

not necessarily - I believe the VFL GF is on Friday night at Etihad, and it would be brave to schedule it on Saturday head to head with the AFL grand final

option then is Sunday, but I'm not sure how that works with their TV arrangements

Doggies beating Knights 18-6 at half time so looks like they'll go on & win.Doubt if Eels will win tommorrow so Storm might end up playing Gold Coast next weeek.


Doggies touch up Knights sans Kimmorley great result for Doggies.


Will the curse of the Dragons strike again ???.

Broncos turned up bigtime last night but Titans looked disjointed and lacked cohesion.

Broncos looking a bit dangerous , Dogs also in a good place right now.
 
Jason Taylor to learn his fate today on whether he will continues as South's coach next year.Unbelievably Russell Crowe will be one of the decision makers,Crowe has one of the longest rapsheets going around but is able to buy his way out of trouble.
 
Broncos beat Dragons tonight to set up prelim final against Storm in Melbourne next Saturday night.Despite Broncos great form I expect Storm to win this.

Jason Taylor sacked & John Lang to coach Souths for next 2 years.Pretty shabby treatment if you ask me.


Just when this rabble looked like they were about to get things right they go and do this.

Taylor is a good coach, and has been held back by second rate decision makers.

Dumb dumb decision, that will hold back the Rabbitohs imo.

Betya Dave Taylor is wrapt hes going there now i believe Taylor was a major factor in getting him there.

Some clubs just dont get things right and Souths have proved yet again they are one of em.

Dragons fall over again in the finals eh..................................................

Storm v Broncos will be a cracker.

Dogs v Eels the same an old time rivalry and mutual dislike that should also be a cracker.


Im tipping the Dogs with KImmorley back will halt the Eels and as for the Storm and the Broncs sheesh i dunno yet .

Storm will win Craig,sets up a great grand final Storm v Doggies.Feel for dragons who should have had a home game in the 2nd week.
 
With Wallace out now the Broncos are gonna rely on Lockyer completely with assistance from Hunt.

Gonna be a cracker.

Leaning towards Storm now Wallace out.

This one will be won and lost in the forwards no doubt about it.

Storm will win regardless Craig
 
For your sake i hope so MB old son.

Now more i think of Lang taking over the Rabbits i i think mit a bad idea.

Lang pretty much stated he hadnt any intentions or desires to coach again ............... well now he is in the firing line.

Reckon you will see the Bunnies signing another coach before end of next season if they struggle.
 
Agree . Were I Souths, I would have tried to flush out one of the young assistant coaches at a successful club,just like they did with Taylor a few years ago. Storm’s Kearney ruled himself out but I think one of the other Melbourne staff were keen on getting an interview, at least. …I think Chief exec Richardson wanted someone he knew & perhaps a little more distant from the players so thought Lang a good fit, given their working history together at Penrith & Cronulla.

Interesting to see Steve Folkes get a job with the Tigers as ‘Strength,Conditioning & High Performance Mgr’ , a throwback to his initial role at Canterbury….Tigers have said they wouldn’t stand in Folkes’ way if he wanted to return to coaching anywhere in the future but perhaps there may be opportunities ‘in house’ ?. …Coach Sheens still has some ‘goodwill’ , particularly after the improved team effort this year ,despite not making finals but his time could be up if the Tigers miss again in 2010…

As for this year ,I reckon we’ll have a Canterbury (not as hard to type as I thought ….Sorry, all the media/public outpouring of ‘Eel’ love does nothing for me. If anything it alienates me further....) v Melbourne grand final next weekend.

Souths are a joke so is Russell Crowe,Taylor gets belted & then sacked.Richardson appoints his mate Lang.Hope the rabbits finsih 2nd last next year.
 
I say 3rd last above the Roosters and Manly MB ol son :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi

I didnt mind the Bunnies but this has put me off em.

Once Crowe pulls out ( i think Holmes a Court already has or is very much more low key in his involvement) which he will eventually, then the joint will be every chance to go ass up again.
