Most nervous I have ever felt before a game, and I've been to all but 2 of our Grand Finals. I think they have the mental edge over us, but physically we should batter them. We have primed, fully fit while they are just about shot. The only reason we would lose this is if they get into our heads. We simply can not allow that to happen. Predicting it to be close with 20/30 mins to go before we score a few runaway tries.

I had a dream that Edrick Lee scored a match winning try.

I will be watching through my hands tonight!!!

Well that doesn't sound realistic at all. It would be most entertaining if the Sharks had an overlap and opportunity to win the game and Lee put the pass down. Again...

Actually scrap that, I will stick with a strong preference for a Storm win with a 30-40 point margin. For the sake of my fingernails and heart.

Dear god, why is Chambers kicking?

Nacho don't worry about dreams I dreamt a few weeks ago it would be a Sydney/Hawthorn grand final. How wrong was that.

I'm not nervous and I'm not confident. Been a strange season and we're playing a team who has owned us at our own game the last 5 matchups. I expect Smith to drive us to a victory but losing wouldn't be a shock to me.

Final 17 should be released shortly. Kinda wished they'd risked gal, it would have left them short on the bench if he went down...

We have our best 17. They have 3 top liners missing. All good there.

Who are the refs ?
