Who'll win the 2007 minor premiership

['G']

STORM 36 (+262): Broncos (h), Eels (h), Bulldogs (a), Titans (h).
MANLY 34 (+210): Knights (a), Souths (a), Warriors (a), Dragons (h).

Looking at their runs home Manly are the favorites IMO. Storm will have tough games against the Eels, Bulldogs and even the Titans if Prince is still fit.

Manly have an easier run home with Newcastle and the Dragons in the final 4 games they play. Depending on this weekend's results Souths will play their hearts out to try and force their way into the top 8 and the Warriors have shown they are a quality team.

Manly.

The Storm's downward slide begins today.

Even with players rested, they were still LEAPS AND BOUNDS ahead of Cronulla on paper (they had 350 first grade games more experience in their starting side, even with Smith and Turner getting a rest).

The thing in Melbournes favor is that they have 3 home games before the semis, and we all know how great they play at home.

On the other hand Manly have 3 away games. This may be the determining factor in regards to the minor premiership.

Manly would be my pick, melbourne have been very average in the past 2 weeks should have beaten the sharks by way more since the sharks were only down to a 2 man bench.

good to see though we are the only team that plays melbourne down here, the other 3 will struggle to beat them up there.

both teams will finish on 42 points, manly though with better F/A.

Manly have a cruise home.

Manly have a cruise home.

I wouldn't call it a cruise. The Rabbitohs are just outside the 8 and will be desperate, the Dragons are playing some decent footy the last few weeks and the Warriors are a form side.

Having said that their run home does look better than Melbournes'.

Sorry, I am just used to the Rabbits being crap... more like wishful thinking

Melbourne are certainties.

STORM 36 (+262): Broncos (h), Eels (h), Bulldogs (a), Titans (h).
MANLY 34 (+210): Knights (a), Souths (a), Warriors (a), Dragons (h).



Storm - W, W, W, W

Manly - W, L, L, W

I tip the storm 2 end up on 44 points
Manly 38.

Storm 4 minor premiership.
