I don’t know if I’ll watch but I’m tipping Harry Grant for the CC. He will have a big game

Penrith did enough all year without being brilliant to finish top 2. Both of their finals wins were two of their better performances all year, I wouldn't be surprised if they play their best tonight and win by 13+. I don't see how the Storm stop the ground that JFH, Leota, Yeo, Edwards and To'o will make.

Any of the North Korean or Chinese ones. I'm not picky.

Someone knows something. I don't get how Melbourne are favourites by such a margin.

Alot will depend on Klein.
If he doesn't ping them for wrestle nobody can slow a ruck like they can.

Best team all year and deserved favourites. It’s not like they’ve not been out there on the big day before

They're not push-overs, but you'd think the team that has played this fixture four consecutive times would be the presumed favourites.
It's not like Melbourne have an immaculate history of GF performances either.
Still, I'd imagine the bookies are spooked by Cleary's shoulder.

And potentially Edwards not being 100%
I think a fully fit panthers dominates this match up, but injury concerns around Cleary and Edwards, and panthers not necessarily being able to rest as much as they have in previous years might be raising some question marks on them.
Until NAS got suspended storm were basically coming in with their ideal setup and being able to rest players when they wanted

Yea me too but must GFs tend to be a team that consistently dominates and an average team that has a lucky season, rarely do you get two teams and two coaches who are completely dominating everyone else come together in the big one.
This is as close as NRL gets to a classic bout. Ali v Frasier

So now we’ve got this period between the end of the NRLW grand final & the NRL GF which is like the time at a wedding when the bride & groom go off to have their photos taken & the guests have to amuse themselves for a couple of hours..

I know it’s early but got here similar time last year during the womens presentation and the atmosphere is dead compared to last year…hopefully picks up closer to kick off.
