NRL Finals Week 2 - Sept. 2001

[Ms.Storm]

Broncos vs. Dragons

Fantastic game by the Broncs and I think they won against the odds according to punters and r/l supporters. They may have something in reserve to fight out for the final, but I think they have a number of injuries which will count in the end.
Chris Walker stood out in this game...

Bulldogs vs Sharks

Probably a game where everyone predicted the correct result considering the number of injuries to the Dogs. Still they fought it out to the end...they never give in the Bulldogs. The hitups were incredible.

The Sharks IMO are a big possibility to win the premiership, they have experience on their side, and providing they remain injury free, they are more than a chance. They also have a lot to play for as their coach and a number of players are departing
Actually they could be a good bet for the premiership.

Really looking forward to next week's finals.

Cheers

Let's just hope that next weeks teams remember to bring the defence handbook with them - in my opinion there's nothing worse than watching league where neither team can defend...

Still can't see Parra getting beaten for the premiership. I reckon the REAL grand final is this week's Parra vs. Broncos game. Whoever wins will take the title.

Hope your right about Parra, Briedis, although I'm not counting my chickens yet. The Broncos are one of those sides that could explode at any time. The good thing about Parramatta this year has been their defense, the best in the league this year. Hope they bring it with them this week.

 

[Briedis]

Although, Hippie I was reading the paper this morning that Parra have a few players out. Hopefully they can still get over the line against the Broncos, who seem to be hitting form at the right time of the season.

 

[Ms.Storm]

Yeah, I suppose you are right..

Parra has been the best team all year and best defensively also.

Who are the players out for Parra...I always seem to miss the sports news on Ch.10 of an evening and have not been buying the papers much. This could make a difference to the result of the game.

Its going to be a good final couple of games.

All the Storm fans will probably go to the Crown Casino to watch the game live, because as you may have guessed, Ch.Nein are having a delayed replay....this really craps me off

Any more goss or signings please Briedis or Hippie (for any team that is)...Thanks

Cheers

Andrew Ryan, David Solamona and one I can't remember were in doubt. Haven't seen if they are playing or not yet. Refuse to watch crappy NRL Footy Show to find out.

Haven't got any more goss or signings. Sorry.
