[QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3070280, member: 1899"] It's the final round of the regular season and it all starts off with the all too familiar finals dress rehearsal between South Sydney and Sydney. A couple of weeks ago, it appeared the Rabbitohs were set to limp into the finals. They were looking ragged bereft of ideas and getting exposed at the wrong end of the season. Souths used the Broncos game as a turning point, managed to get the result and put together one of their best efforts of the season against the Warriors. Now they find themselves against one of their biggest obstacles standing in the way of premiership #22, were the last two weeks merely the death rattle? Or can Souths open up the finals? Unlike Canberra, I don't think Sydney will treat this match lightly. The selection of Cooper Cronk and Boyd Cordner suggests that they'll be looking to try out some plays heading into the finals and try to play a style they believe will get the job done in the course of a month. Then on Sunday, we've got the battle for the final spot in the finals. It's been mentioned around the website, but if the Broncos lose against Canterbury, the possibility of both teams playing for a draw so they can both enter the finals opens up. It would be ludicrous to see both teams engineer a draw, but as long as the option is there it'll certainly add another perspective to the game. For the sake of the finals, I believe Cronulla pose the bigger threat and would be the better dark horses. However, the Tigers would have to be the sentimental favourites going in. They came close last year to making it and in terms of a squad heading in the right direction, a Top 8 finish would be a fair recognition of their efforts this season. It's always a strange round of football because you never know who is going to turn up. Some teams have their eyes on the final, others have it on Mad Monday and sometimes you get a Gold Coast 1992 where they put in their best effort just to send a legend out. I'm of course talking about The King and the Seagulls' 12-8 win over the defending premiers, the Penrith Panthers. [/QUOTE]
