So we have two games this weekend! 1) Dolphins vs Rorters and 2) Knights vs Penrith Cheetahs! Who wins to book a place on the Grand Final? I'll go for Dolphins and Knights!
That would be the best Grand Final in my opinion! My reason is 1) Dolphins have never won and they're the newest team in the NRL and them winning would be encouraging for the Perth Bears coming into the NRL next year!
2) The Knights haven't won for awhile and they're also out of the top 4 and no team in the current NRL system has won a Premiership outside of the top 4. 3) The Dolphins have also been beaten by 50 points and no team has won a premiership that's been beaten by 50 !
The other two sides! Tired of the Penrith Cheetahs and the Rorters!

I hate to say it because it reinforces the fact that the salary cap isn't working, but the Roosters and the Panthers are the top 2 teams this year and are deserving of a GF.
I think the Panthers will win it as long as Cleary is fit.
The Dolphins will find it hard against both these sides, and the Knights aren't close to either the Panthers or the Roosters.
A win for the NRL would definitely be Knights or best case scenario the Dolphins as it proves that new franchises can still work and be successful.
My money is on the Panthers beating the Roosters in the GF.
Gee Captain no hard feelings but I hope your wrong
I hope I'm wrong too! 🤣
I reckon Cleary has the same foot injury that Moses was carrying. Could be a upset.
Only way to beat Penrith is to attack their edge and isolate T'OO in the air. Knights can win but they will need to be attacking all day. If Panthers geto 12-0 at half time, they will choke the game away from the knights. In tonights game, Dolphins have the best backs in teh comp and a good forward pack. They have to play their game too and risk the pass here and there. Otherwise Roosters will close it down and come through the middle. Go Phins.
Which team is most likely to beat the Panthers
I think the Roosters are the only team with the defensive ability to hold Penrith out and could sneak a win if things go okay for them. I think a Roosters vs Panthers GF would be 35% chance Roosters win.
I don't think the Dolphins or the Knights can hold out the grind of Penrith for 80 minutes. They both have points in them but they'll get fatigued and fade in the second half and Penrith will close it out.
Everything changes if Cleary is properly injured and it impacts his ability to play substantially. If that's the case I think it's anyone's game.
panthers and roosters to beat fins in a close 1, the game of the weekend
I actually think roosters win the comp, just on talent they should. But safe bet is panthers lol
I'm a big fan of how the Dolphins play footy.
I think there defense has got better the deeper the comps gone.
They seemingly are able to hang in games but there biggest weakness imo is lack of big game experience that's something they haven't got.There spine also while talented is also inexperienced in these big games even though Katoa is definitely the next guy.
