Thanks for your valuable input howard00.

Anyway the Sharks season was done when Carney snapped his achillies. They don't have many points in them when he's playing, no hope of scoring enough to win a premiership without him.

Didn't see the Souffs game but from what I can see both teams will be fighting for the opportunity to get put out by the Dogs. Reckon it'll be Dogs vs Cows or Storm in the final.

I know it was only the AFL thread but I can't believe people were ragging on the Dogs/Manly game. Thought it was an awesome match. Only problem was there had to be a winner.

[Son Of Coco]

It's rare you get a game where the team you follow is both victorious and knocked out, but it happened to me last night in the Cowboys vs Broncos game.

Will have to wait until next year for WPTB to run around again.

[uvelocity]

theres a few interesting permutations

manly are gone though

the only ones really on their game I think were the storms

[Ausage]

Wish I'd called it earlier but I've thought for a while Manly were just a shade below what was required this year. Just to switch off too regularly and I figured it would haunt them at some point in the finals.

Shame we'll never know because of their injuries. If they bow out next week it'll always be marked with an asterisk.

[NUFAN]

Really enjoyed the match this arvo, most likely due to the match being played in the sunshine.

I thought Canberra were excellent and could very well topple Souths next Saturday. Manly vs Cowboys is going to be a cracking match. I wouldn't write-off Manly, but I'm definitely going for the Cows now that they comprehensively defeated the Broncs.

[uvelocity]

the best chance manly will have is to be dog ass scumbags, and they will certainly be doing that

if lyon doesn't play (wont - weak as piss) they will be missing both centres. impossible.

[NUFAN]

T-Rex into the centres and Whare will move in a spot, it will not be a huge problem, but obviously not ideal. Before the weekend I couldn't work out why Manly were favourites against the Dogs, but now if the Cows are favs, I would probably bet on Manly.

[uvelocity]

done. like a dinner.

though more delicious would be them getting even closer before falling down

[NUFAN]

Look I want the Cows to win, but look at their appalling record in Sydney. PLUS I reckon Broncos allowed the Cows to look great on Saturday.

Certaintly not done like dinner Uvel00city.
