A valid point which I just noticed. My apologies on that one
If Brisbane were the form team they would have been minor premiers & made the GF. They didn't because they were not but they will be a serious force next year as their junior players are maturing nicely.
Manly have been the most consistant team the last 5 years along with the Storm & should be recognised as such.
With a unbiased opinion I don't think the Rose cheap shot warranted sending off. Maybe 10 minutes in the bin but it was not a send off offence.
