Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2453087, member: 1899"] Yep, I might not have any emotional attachment to any of the remaining teams but I'd rather watch these 4 teams than a game of AFL. Sport is just way too messy for my liking, difficult to take it seriously at times. Backing Storm & Bulldogs this weekend. Storm/Sea Eagles will be a very close, tense match but I expect Storm in Melbourne to just to be too strong and will expose how patchy the Sea Eagles can be. Biggest concern here for me is Widdop coming up against T-Rex. If Melbourne have a weakness in defence, it's good fringe running, which is where the Broncos caught them out at Suncorp and if Manly get on a roll early it could get ugly, 2008 ugly. I have more faith in Melbourne than that though and predict they'll win by a lean 8 points. Bulldogs/Souths is really an interesting contest. Just think Bulldogs on form are too much of a professional unit and are better across the park than Souths who are building but their best footy is certainly infront of them. I just think Souths like Manly can be really patchy and that victory last week really wasn't that great. Obviously it was great for them to finally win a finals match, but the Raiders were absolutely rubbish and they nearly blew that lead with some garbage footy of their own. I just don't think they'll fair all that well with the Bulldogs being in their face on defence and I expect players like Luke, Taylor, Sutton, Reynolds etc. will struggle. Would love to be wrong, but I expect the Dogs to win by 10. [/QUOTE]
