Docker’s decision to leave players home is a good call. With reported flu outbreaks, plus the Saints & Cats did it last year, why the media attention?? Rodney Eade’s comment on the SCG surface was a very bad call. Sick of excuses & speak up on Etihad.

Kick2Kick League Week 3 Finals Review
(1) Germinators 2,230 def (3) Benditos 2,019
The defence did enough to help the lack of stars in Germayn’s line up. Sandilands, Higgins & O’Keefe were out this week. Haven’t seen the incident, but Beau Waters could be an extra headache for Germayn if the MRP get invlolved. We hope to have the Benditos back in 2011.

(4) Bomber cyborgs 1.996 def (6) Nambucca Axemen 1.751
The outs & the injury to Cooney doesn’t reflect the true score line for the Cyborgs & “Pods” could be another headache come GF time.
Deano was in the same boat with the outs, but didn’t have the emergencies to cover the losses. Unfortunately, that’s the nature of this game. Question is what’s going to be the mystery answer with the “bye” coming in??

(9) Half Back Flanker 1.943 def (10) Mopar 1,545
Well, neither GF finished with the best 2 teams in their sections playing off. The Flankers presumably played with only one ruckman with Ryder pulling out late on Sunday. Fortunately, it’s only illness, but does the “flu” actually mean hamstring strain?? Cooney has the answer to that, but will it be honest.

Kick2Kick League GF Finals Preview

(4) Bomber cyborgs ($2.32) .vs. (1) Germinators ($1.62)
Naturally, the boss will start as the favourite despite the upset loss to the cyborgs in week 1 of the finals. It’s 1-1 for the season so can Sean pull off the double whammy & lay the boss’s season to waste??

(9) Half Back Flanker ($1.82) .vs. (11) Chardy’s Champs ($1.99)
This should be an interesting contest with both teams deserved top 8 teams, but without the wins. The round 7 match up ended in a draw so who has the psychological edge??

Good luck to all this weekend with some very exciting results ahead & watch for the round 22 Breakevens for the GF teams spread.
