Dogs went best with Sexton and Burto as halves, with Burton putting his kicks up into the stratosphere. You'd think that, with Buurto in centre, they'd get him to push up on the 5th to put up the high balls. Wasting one of their best weapons.

Usually the teams with a week off play the GF so Storm v Broncos looks most likely. Preston makes Galvin look good, except when he's doing hospital passes or throwing the ball out.

Yep. No momentum coming into the semis. Against Broncs they made the classic Tiger mistake of closing shop when they get a good lead. At the Greenhouse some were saying the season was a complete failure. Not sure what they'd call the WT's last four seasons 🤣

All Raiders had to do was rest their players against the Tigers and then use the Dolphins game to tune up for the finals. But they chose to get the minor premiership in front of their home crowd - and that was their last triumph of the season. From there, LLL.

Hynes v Fogerty ... who can keep their nerve? Since Strange is out, Sharks look more likely. The Raiders should have rested players against the Tigers and used the last round to tune up. Sewing up the minor premiership might have cost them the big prize.

I saw a post by a Raiders fan who reckoned that, if they go out in straight sets, then the season is a fail :ROFLMAO: 🤣

We probably all remember how Feldt won a game for the Cows against the Tigers in the last second of the game by running into one of our guys and then theatrically hurling himself onto the ground. Since the fakery worked for him then, I guess he's kept it in his trick bag.

Awesome game! What a roller coaster. Everyone knew this was the pick of the matchups this weekend, and it turned out that way. Hope these two meet again this year. They play a better brand of footy than the other teams. Walsh's butt (so to speak) reminded me of Flanagan's "bite" of Crichton's...

The media is hammering on about Marky Mark's great attacking play but they didn't mention how he was out of position in Ronaldo's two tries that turned the game. If he's to play for Australia, they need to fix that up.

The kid's lost confidence. No comparison between early season Galvin with Tigers and late season Galvin with Dogs. Isaac and Galvin's dad screwed up massively. They threw him in the deep end before he could swim and now he's sinking down to Davy Jones' locker. And Tigers save a mill a year.

Based on form, I'm thinking that the premier will come from tomorrow's game. All of the teams have been gritty, but none have been all that impressive this weekend.

I thought Dogs were gone when Kikau and Crichton went down but they lifted when Sexton came on. Warbrick gained redemption after stinking up the joint early on. I don't see either of these teams winning the comp. It's the weak side of the draw, aside from Panthers.

Sharks and Warriors to be eliminated first. Raiders and Dogs to go out in straight sets. Of course, the way this season has been going, all of these guesses could be wrong :)

Less of a fail than in recent years but still a fail. Like the diff between a D and an F. Not closing out the games against the Cows and Titans made it clear that some of the Tigers' bad old habits are still there.

There's a pattern. If the Tigers win, they lose the next game. If they get in the lead, they fall away. It seems to me that they're so used to losing that, as soon as they do something right, they get big heads and start dropping off tackles, doing hail Mary passes, dropping the ball, giving...
