Ramrod said:I'd rather a Storm Premiership this year.
Souths and Dogs fans would stick it to us if they win.
You'll see all their flags driving around our suburbs.
I detest Dogsler.

Anyway no secret that I'll be backing the Dogs.
Manly were really off the radar tonight, and whilst the Storm weren't brilliant (bombed the knockout punch on Manly a few times before one connected) they did enough for win.
Souths are performing better and improving, BUT their defensive lapses and habit of clocking off during periods of the game can hurt them, in particular against a team like the Bulldogs who lead the comp in long range tries.
Whilst for a Manly fan it may be really hard to admit, but the Bulldogs have come a remarkably long way from last season, with only a few roster changes, and new coaching staff. What hasler has acheived with the Bulldogs this year is nothing short of amazing, even if it's hard to admit.
Everyone is banging on about the Rabbitohs but they are overlooking things. They smashed a REALLY poor Raiders side last week. Before that Melbourne beat them convincingly. Souths have only beaten the Dogs once and that was 20-10 early in the season. Souths have not beaten any of the other top 4 sides though. I reckon they'll choke under pressure.

couldn't stand to watch the other 2.
maybe i'll convert to gay.f.l for a week & cheer on the swannies if they win today
They all give me the ****s, dogs just more so. Last night was the last NRL I'll watch this year.Masked Eagle said:Bunnies all the way! Storm v Dogs is almost unwatchable IMO.
