[Mark from Brisbane]

Not yet absolutely confirmed but this looks like when the games will be , no Manly which is very sad but still should be an interesting set of games.

Storm, Panthers, Chickens, Broncos i reckon for the win

Wow Stuart whinging already. What a surprise. More than half his,side aren't playing today anyway. Fu*kwit. See this is why I can't stand to see them win. He sh*ts me to tears.

Not the Faders , at home ???

Raiders will go out in straight sets I reckon.

It's the Broncos comp to lose, unfortunately.

If Reece Lightning has another game like the Storm game, could be game over.

“My poor buggers’: Ricky Stuart points finger at NRL CEO after loss to Manly”​

Agree MickQld.
I was indifferent to Ricky Stuart, but when he whinged & moaned about the Round 3 Raiders loss to Manly it really took the shine off Manly’s win.
So, with that I hope his mob fail in their quest.

Not the Faders , at home ???

Haven't been convinced all year that the faders will go far. We flogged them for starters. They got an easy draw , played all bottom 8 teams twice.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I think it’s

Storm
Panthers
Rorters
Faders ( I’m giving them the home ground advantage but this will be the game of the round ).

Warriors / Sharks to be eliminated

Exactly. Getting beaten by Manly at any stage of the season is not a good sign.

No - Donkeys are on a big roll unfortunately

I think it’ll be one of the best finals series we’ve ever had (especially compared to last years snoozefest). My guess;

Week 2: Bulldogs vs Penrith, Raiders vs Sharks

Week 3: Broncos vs Penrith, Storm vs Sharks

GF: Storm vs Broncos

 

[davohan123]

Week 1
Storm
Panthers
Roosters
Broncos

How depressing is that winners list for week 1.

Warriors sharks gone
Broncos vs Raiders
Winner box seat to get into GF for mine.

Not the same without us!!

Wow they changed the week 2 scheduling to Saturday and Sunday for greater recovery.

Week 3: Broncos vs Penrith, Storm vs Sharks

GF: Storm vs Broncos

Disagree. The Dogs, Warriors and Storm loss of form and injuries hit. Nicho gone for Sharks, Penrith hot n cold.
I reckon it'll be one sided games next weekend. Broncos look specials if they get Reynolds and that goose Mam back fit.
