2020 Finals discussion thread

Give me a defensive grind full of desperation, blood, sweat and tears - not this touch footy business that the game has become. Miss the days of 12-8 finals.

I rate Adam Reynolds as the best value for money halfback in the comp. His kicking game is sublime, when he runs he is good, seems like a good enough bloke and kicks goals really well.

That 4-0 semi final seems a hundred years ago and a different sport.

Right now I hate watching Api play for Penrith.

Yeah, I think he's been consistent as well as consistently underrated for a long time. Might not have the "Wow!" potential that Cherry can have though. I really like him as a player; Cleary, too. Two great halfbacks on show tonight.

This is a **** to watch , but 2020 is all about touch footy.
The Premiership is decided in this game.

Shows the importance of possession in the first 20 in the new game

If either team play like this next week, Melbourne are going to tear them apart.

Neither playing anywhere near the level of the Drizzle last night !!

No use unless it's lifesaver size.

Too much information Mick. Probably better suited to a Worms-related thread.

Conditions might be playing a part, very slippery. Api passing from hooker looks poor so far. Both sides missing key players, forcing players out of position

 

[Dee Why Eagle]

argh... agree with gus

Penrith should be 20 in front. Reminds me of the 2007 prelim vs the Cows. We were all over them but only 2 pts in front at halftime. Murdered them in 2nd half. Panthers will do the same here.
