Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3558796, member: 1899"] There's been plenty of speculation surrounding the Broncos decision to rest players, but I don't think we'll see a proper test until the Panthers play the Warriors. If the Warriors are slow out of the blocks and/or don't outplay the Panthers during the second half, then the disruption didn't really benefit them. I'm not sure if you guys caught any of the discussion over on Twitter about PointsBet. Personally I've got no issue with the NRL going with suburban grounds for the first couple of weeks before heading to the big stadiums for the Grand Final qualifiers and the GF itself. The suggestion the game should have been played at Allianz is ludicrous, and really just speaks to the entitlement certain fanbases have. Admittedly SharkPark doesn't always provide the best atmosphere but that shouldn't be a problem for the Knights. I believe this is the first home final since 2006? It should be an electric atmosphere and it would take one of the all-time great ambushes by Canberra for them to prevail. Personally I already have the Knights ready to either travel over to New Zealand (which should also be an awesome atmosphere) or Allianz (I'm pretty sure Sydney teams lose their home ground advantage, so poor Cronulla gained no advantage for finishing Top 4 last year).
