Gonna be tough... Dolphins look an all round team. Only weakness is there defence on the line.. that's probably the best chance we got considering most tries come from within the ten.

Hardest part will be shutting them down though because they look like they know how to find the line.
if dogs have done their home work they will attack redcliffe winger josh beehag side of the field, constantly 20m meters in off his wing, he makes montoya look good hes that much out of position
play after play hes way in field

Kasiano was one of their best today. Unfortunately he was playing for the Easts Tigers :grimacing:
Yep everyone creams themselves over Bellamy and how he gets the best out of players. The demise of Kasiano this year has been extraordinary.

They bragged about how fit he was but why get him that fit if he is only go to play 30 minutes ? They took away his one big advantage - size

Kasiano is fucking useless. Doesn't work hard enough and that's why he's barely in the side...that plus dumb suspensions.

The greatest asset the Dolphins have is their discipline. That's something we lack.
Unless we get some fluidity and purpose into our game then it will be difficult to win.

Will be good to see a Canterbury side run out on GF day anyways, despite the first grade sides ordinary year reserve grade has been rising above everything to be state champions.
Hope they can beat the banana benders, the Doggy spirit lives.

Making finals and winning comps doesn’t just show the club has turned the corner with the junior development it’s also pretty important in developing a winning culture. The players get used to being involved in finals games and it becomes a habit and hurts more when they don’t play in them.

So will us folk in Qld get to see the Dogs on Channel 9 this week or will they just show us Redcliffe and pixelate the Dogs out? I’m still pissed I couldn’t watch the game live last week. Couldn’t even stream it. Anyhows, it's good to actually have a game to look forward to on Sunday. Go the dogs.

Then you have Finucane who has gone up a gear 3 GF in a row including a championship and about to win another

How he isn’t in Origin is bs
Always rated Finucane.. just a professional. Then again there is de Belin and Jake T who are rated higher.

Finucane is better then De Belin and equal to Jake Trbo even though they have a very different skillset.

Martin seems a totally committed clubman and probably volunteered/insisted he play with his mates when they got that far into the finals. I'm really impressed with his demeanour and he offers a lot more to the team than goal kicking and good lines. If he can improve his D he will be special.
Martin is playing because his conceded a nsw cup player. Chn rfm and jackson are ahead of him as backrowers. While Lewis and Smith are nrl players thats why they are not playing.
