Moses is already ranked higher than Jeff Robson. Robson was a good safe halfback that didnt do much wrong, but was not an exciting player in offense. Jason Taylor was very good and they should have tried to get more than 1 year from him. I think they would have done a lot better in 2002 if Taylor was still there. I hate to say it but the Evil Empire was the better team in that game against the Rabbits. When there player Parker was sent to the sin bin they were all over the Rabbits. The Rabbits will lose to the Raiders. I wish Jason Taylor was the halfback, 1998-2001. Maybe a different result back then? A quality halfback for only one year was not enough time. Rabbits should lose to the Raiders, based on their soft defence. Conceding 26 points against Manly is not impressive. I'm thinking Raiders v Roosters GF. I think the Premiers will be the winner from Roosters / Storm.

I only think the Storm because I feel they have finally woken up to themselves. The week before I would have agreed with you with the Roosters. I think the Raiders may embarrass the Rabbits. They are a very strong solid team at home.

They are a very strong solid team at home. Roosters will not have Jared Waerea-Hargreaves. Could make a difference? Should be a great game. I still think Roosters, but wouldn't be surprised if the Storm won. If it wasn't for Ricky Stuart, I'd like to see the Raiders win the Premiership. I probably hate them the least out of the four teams remaining.

I dislike the Rabbits the least, I would like to see them win the GF but that will not happen. Whoever plays the Raiders in the GF I will go for them because I cant stand Stuart.

Roosters might go back to back, which hasn't happened since Broncos 1992 / 1993? Storm will beat the Raiders if they get to the GF. I don't think the Raiders will win. They have been consistently good, but I think they lack that special play when it matters the most. Whereas, Storm can do some incredible tings to win a game. It could be a Storm v Raiders GF, no Sydney teams!!

I dont think the Rabbits have any chance against the Raiders, I dont think they deserved the win over the Evil Empire. So i guess it maybe a no Sydney GF, since I think the Storm will win against the Roosters. I dont really care that there may not be a Sydney team in the GF as it is a national competition that doesnt include most of the nation. I am still a bit pissed that the Eels went out so meekly.

Parra were never going to beat Storm and then Roosters. They would have even struggled against Rabbitohs and Raiders if they were in the Sea Eagles position. A win against the Rabbitohs was possible, but not against the other three. Don't really care who wins the Premiership. Roosters or Storm will win. Raiders won't beat the Storm again the way they did in Melbourne, two weeks ago.

I am pretty sure the Raiders will make the GF, but they will not have an easy time of it. I think they may get slightly embarrassed actually. Not to the degree the Eels were, but I dont think it will be very close.

If the Raiders do win, I'll be impressed, but I think the winners of Roosters v Storm will have too much strike power. This year, Raiders lost both games to the Roosters, but did beat the Storm, but Grand Final football against a team that it used to winning won't be easy.

I will enjoy the blame game by that asshole Stuart after they lose the GF. The fact is that they may lose to the Rabbits so the blame game will come a week earlier.

If Rabbits upset the Raiders, then the winner of Storm / Roosters will have the Premiership already won. Souths won't get anyway near the top two sides. That will be a terrible GF. Everyone will be calling for last year's GF. At least Raiders will offer better defence and half a chance to win.

I dont think the Raiders have much of a chance to beat either the Storm or Roosters. I know they have beaten the Storm twice this year in Melbourne, but the storm is full of big game players and the Raiders arent. The only GF that would be hard to pick is a Storm V Roosters game. It came a week early.

It came a week early. Exactly!! No big game players in the Raiders team. The Raiders only hope if they beat Souths, would be key Storm or Roosters players being injured or suspended for the GF. Now that I have written off the Raiders, they'll probably win. I have done that so many times. Raiders v Bunnies kick off soon. Raiders by 16.

The Rabbits blew there chances, every time they play against 12 players they get outplayed. The Raiders deserved that win but I dont give them any hope in the GF. The Roosters defense is incredible.
