Strange scheduling because we will pretty much know the make-up of the top 8 and the minor premiers by Saturday night.

What will they do about presenting the shield if Rabbits get it but have already played?

You would think that as its 1st vs 4th is on a Friday night and we are currently 1st that we would play Friday and have a full 7 days off as well.

Nice scheduling ass-clowns. Again.

Since you know the final make up and order of the top 8 could you please tell the rest of us who we will be playing in the first week of the finals?

is pea and iris going to be in the side for that game

if you are scheduling the last round before finals, wouldn't you use the current top 8 as a guide of when particular teams should play so finals teams get a 7 day break? If not how would you do it?

are you ever going to get it that jokes have a lifespan?

No concerns with this mate, the Rabbitohs won't win the Minor Premiership. They can present it to the Dogs at ANZ on Saturday.

I love Saturday afternoon games too. It's the best, just to kick back and see Bulldogs.

 

[Big_Dawg]

Bunnies won't go near the MP anyways

 

[doggie-style]

This will be anastas final game with the roosters against the bulldogs

his last game for the bulldogs was against the roosters

Don't forget Ch 9 and Fox has a big say in how the round is played out.
