Will take finishing around 55% in this crapshoot of a league.
Brisbane Broncos v North Queensland Cowboys
The play...
Cowboys $1.98 (2.36 to win 2.31)
Tough game so not gonna unload.
Will stick with my original lean. Taking x-factor over consistency.
JT and Captain Morgan > Hunt and Milf, imo.
Cows with an advantage in the forwards and it showed in week one of the Finals, Cows lost that game on poor execution. Doubt they make the same mistake twice.
As soppy as it sounds, if one player deserves a GF win - it's JT.
Dude is the classiest player in the game right now and a true ambassador for the sport.
Fcuk Wayne Bennett, that grub Hodges and Adam Blair.

seriously, keeping the powder dry for this one - can't remember a GF where there's been such a minimal edge either way ... like betting on a melbourne cup ...

agree with the sentiment....on the opposite side but in a strange conflicted way i'll be cheering for the skinny little bloke with the bushy eyebrows........i think we see our first nail-biting finale in years and years....and theres no-one in the history of the game you'd rather have with the ball in his hands to make a winning play down the stretch.
emkee i saw you mention that nba is your main sport??...is there anywhere to check out your plays??is it here at covers or??...basketball is my favourite sport but by christ that is a bit.ch of a league to try and win in thru betting.

Tough game alright but had to stick to my guns.
Yep, NBA only a few weeks away.

Yeah. Game could be won or lost on 1 play. Just feel better having the best player in the league on my side.
Type emkee capping into Google and you'll find the place, Melo.
All the best.

These 2 teams played 3 weeks ago, 2 tries each, the Cows BUTCHERED a few chances.
Morgan's timing was way out. He is much better for the run.
As I said last week, the Cows just remind me of Souths last year in terms of there forwards. They are on a mission especially Scott.
Cows last week were in front at Half time against a clinical storm team that had completed something like 17 of 18 weeks...That's not easy.
The Broncs had a perfect storm last week everything from the SKD pass to the bat back pass.
They also wont have 50k Brisbane supporters.
In fact, if SKDs try in the first minute of the 2nd half had been awarded (just a bit of bad luck), then it could have been a much much different game even after everything going the Broncos way in the first half.
IMO, the only way the Cows lose is if they sh#t themselves on the big stage....that is very very possible.

On the Cows myself....$2.02 at Betfair.

Want to see JT win a GF, but he's a tragic figure. Much like Pavlich for Fremantle.
Legendary players who will never win anything. The Aussie Dan Marinos.
So gut told me Brisbane.
Looks like I'm the only one on the Broncos.
na,im on the broncos also.....gut likewise tells me strongly they get it done....but weirdly i wanna see the cowboys do it cos i root for thurston like most other people.
you really see thurston as a tragic figure???...hes won absolutely everything under the sun multiple times and he has won a premiership too dont forget...no doubt watsoever he will be revered as a champion and one of the 5 best to ever play the game.

whilst it is of course possible it is hard to see a team with guys like thurston,scott,tamou,hannant and experienced heads like cooper,lowe,linnett freezing under the pressure...of course a grand final brings with it special expectations but there is a truck-load of playoff,rep and international football experience amongst that lot.
time will tell tho.

Good points.
Yeah, Thurston has won before, but it seems like he is always on an under-achieving Cowboys side and is always the only guy on that team doing anything.
Tonight is much like last night for me. Wishing WC wins the GF, but mind and money on the Hawks. And we know how that turned out.
Rare GF to have no discernible edge and in which both sides could be backed with full confidence.
It will be no surprise whomever wins this.
