Yea 1 v 8 etc/// The afl system of 1v 4, 2v3, 5v8, 6 v 7 would be better i reckon

That would be one hell of a finals series. Probably more exciting than the one we have now.

The first week would be:
Storm v Warriors (What a game that would be!)
Sea Eagles v Cowboys
Eels v Broncos
Bulldogs v Rabbitohs
 
Man, that was disappointing by the Warriors. In front of that big home crowd, they should have won. In retrospect I suppose it was their first final since 2004, and a lot of their players were new to the environment. But still ...

What was Swann thinking not passing? He'll never live that down. Pretty obvious the way the way was going that it cost them the win. Price's chargedown at the end was also baffling. I don't see Parra going too far, they had enough ball to win two or three matches in the first half but had nothing against a decent defence. They'll get eaten alive if they play Melbourne at any stage.

Warriors can improve and win next week, but 2008 will be their year to have a genuine shot at the comp, I reckon.
 
Everyone here seemed to be cheering for the Warriors! It was very good of you all. That poor big crowd. Such a great crowd for a league game in NZ, what a shame they won't be playing there next week.
 
Yea stadium drenched in black.. good to see... yea SWANN he had to pass!! and the Penalty Try! Bill Harrigons justification was that because he took him out, the knock on was rubbed out... so in a way played cont. and try was awarded. If that happened every week, we'd be seeing 100-penalty tries a season!!!
 
:o

Well if he had just ruled that Witt had have scored had he not been tackled early - Witt did end up on the line, so I could sort of see his point of view, even though I disagreed. But his actual justification makes it the worst decision ever!!!
 
Excuse me I was not cheering for the Warriors! Eels all the way.

I thought they did well under the pressure. A lot better in the last few weeks. Especially not a bad effort seen as they were backing up from a Sunday arvo game!

And the crowd in NZ was awesome, they really went all out for the black out thing.
 
Cowboys played good tonight to keep out the Dogs and Rabbitos..ohwell never had a chance .. well done 2 them for makn the top8 though..
 
yeah especially when they come up against Manly!! :D
but it was a good game just Manly was to good
Menzies and Stewart played awesome!
 
Im Really annoyed that the eels and eagles won - didnt care for the result in the dogs cowboys match. Im still rooting for the warriors next week though. If Melbourne win tonight, which is almost certain, does that meen Warriors play the bulldogs next week?
