    Oh dear, just into the 2nd week of the off-season and footballer`s behaving badly have started feeding the media outlets NRL player Dylan Walker has been charged after allegedly assaulting two men outside a restaurant on Sydney’s northern beaches. https://www.news.com.au/sport/nrl/manly-nrl-star-dylan-walker-charged-with-assault-at-narraweena/news-story/9ddcb8ee445bb08dd107ac769ed8b961

    I`m glad the lads from the foothills, in Sydneys west, were just out there enjoying their footy and happy to be playing with their mates (well, that was their spiel for most of the season), where as the Storm turned up to win the GF.... Congratulations Kelvin, well done Thanks e`cat for setting up and running the comp again State of Origin... Origin in November, kind of like a Christmas in July feeling. anyway I`ll skip our tradition of SOO pizza nights this year and go the singlets, shorts and bbqs ... GO the MAROONS.

    for 2020 we do have a Qld based team in the final, it`s one that conitnuously feeds into our Maroon Legends system, coached , captained and sprinkled with Qlders.... on the other side you have a selfish outfit hoping for a father and son fairy tale... Go the QLDER connections

    ripped this off from the ‘ the thinkers’ NRL site… reasonable summary First plays second, and we can safely say these two sides have been the most consistent sides this season. In the finals series the Storm have beaten the Eels by 12 and the Raiders by 20, while the Panthers have beaten the Roosters by 1 and the Rabbitohs by 4. The Storm have clearly been more impressive throughout the finals series, but the Panthers may have forgotten how to lose. This, however, is their sternest test, against a team who have won 18 of the last 21 contests between these sides. Notably, the Panthers did win their only meeting this season, and recent form counts more than recent history. In round six the Panthers won 21-14 at Campbelltown, but the Storm were missing Hughes and Addo-Carr on that occasion. The Panthers won that game, and they've won every game since then, but can they win the game that matters most? They're young, they're free of injury, and they're full of confidence. If things go their way they can clearly win this, but there are a few key areas where they can be picked apart, and no team picks apart an opponents weaknesses like the Melbourne Storm. Last week the Rabbitohs gave their all under difficult circumstances. They scored all three of their tries on the left edge, and the Panthers right edge defence has long been their weakest. Clearly replaced Naden with Tyrone May at right centre to try and address that weakness, but they still conceded three tries on that edge. If the Bunnies left winger had two legs they could have scored at least two more down that left edge. He still scored one...with one good leg. Naden comes back into the first thirteen for the grand final, but that right edge defence can be targeted. Does the Storm have the attacking artillery on their left edge to target and break down the Panthers right edge defence? Well...their left edge attack is Munster, Hughes, Olam, Kenny Bromwich, Addo-Carr and Papenhuyzen. They can attack that edge through the hands. They can attack that edge with speed. They can attack that edge with a kicking game. The Storm will hit them with all three. The other issue could be on the right flank, where Vunivali has a 12cm height advantage over Josh Mansour. And it's not just the 12cm, as Vunivali has a vertical leap that puts him high above his opponent. It's another potential avenue to the tryline for the Storm. So a few issues for the Panthers to manage there. They looked ominous against the Raiders, virtually icing the game in the first ten minutes. They had enough in hand to take their foot off the pedal at the end of that game, and they've had an extra day since then to prepare for the grand final…

    NRLW MAKE FINALS TRIPLE-HEADERS https://www.sportsnews.com.au/nrl/nrlw-to-make-for-finals-triple-headers/545122 NRLW matches will be played as triple-headers with the men with 90-minute gaps between games to ensure the competition can be played in the COVID-safe bubble. The NRL confirmed plans for the four-team women’s competition on Wednesday, just a week out from the opening game. As part of the schedule, the competition will be played on three straight Saturdays before the grand final is contested before the men’s on Sunday October 25. To ensure dressing rooms used by the women can be cleaned between matches, the opening game will kick off as early as 11:30am before the next follows three-and-a-half hours later. The men will then follow at night, with all women’s matches to be broadcast on Nine’s main channel.
