Correct. They also best Melbourne when they were in form.
They were lucky to beat the Panthers IMO. They did play well that night but they were playing the best they could and only just scraped in. I had money on the Eels so was happy with the result.

I still don't see them as serious contenders.

My hunch:

Panthers vs Sharks GF.

We lose by 30.

Yeah on their day they can get close enough to beat the best. Problem is they're way to inconsistent to string enough good games in a row to win the comp I reckon.

It's amazing how much better they look with the go forward of Junior Paulo too. I didn't really give that enough consideration when I was bagging them last night.

Ridiculous sinbin followed by a try which was actually a double movement.

The ball inside the ref's head is bouncing the Broncos way so far.

Well St George just got a dodgy penalty in reply. So the square up may be on.

Great try by Ramsay.

Should be called back for obstruction.
The ref was backpedaling through the defensive line and Suli ran straight at him.

I initially thought the same but then had another look.
The defender did stick his leg out to stop the kick but the half brushed it on the way through and took a dive IMO
I thought the defenders knee caught him, but I did not go back and take a look.
