I'm guessing that like most other Storm supporters and/or Manly haters that we are hoping for at least two out of the Titans, Bulldogs & Dragons to fail this weekend.

Looks like Brisbane are helping us out having moved to an 18 to 10 point lead at 31 minute mark.

Make that Broncos 22 vs Tits 10 after 35 minutes.

In the Under 20's Canberra are helping to pile on the woe to Scumly by leading 22 points to 14 after 53 minutes.

Ah well, Broncos defeated the Titans and the Bulldogs beat the Knights.

Fingers crossed the Eels can win tomorrow afternoon.

Titans ended up coming all the way back to then just gift the Broncos the game with 2 intercept tries. Dunno what to think of either of the teams after tonight, the Broncos looked pretty good but not great.

Bad move by the Knights to play de Gois - obviously not fully fit, and the first tackle he made, his knee buckled under him, leaving Newcastle with three on the bench for most of the match.

And they played Zeb Taia even though he had a suspect shoulder - I think he managed to play on for a while though (?)

Not surprised the 'Dogs won, given that the Knights really only limped into the finals...and in the end, limped out of them as well...

I think the must win factor helped Newcastle in deciciding to risk De Gois but yeh terrible call considering he couldn't even last longer then the first set of the game....atleast Lyon lasted 30minutes last night.

I can't believe that after we trash Manly by 40 to 12 Manly get to play the Gold Coast next week and we get stuck with the inform team Brisbane.

Our game is so much tougher. Where is the justice in that??!!

Poor Knights!!!!! They should be proud it was a fairly tight scoreline, absolutely nothing going there way the whole night.

GtS, we do not play Brisbane. Where are you getting this? lol

3 minutes gone - penalty to Dragons plus another for back chatting ?

5 gone & a 2nd kick to Sailor is futile.

Eels giving Dragons too much in errors & penalties
