Has anyone done a stats of record wins/losses for each team against all the other finals teams in 2023?

Im embarrassed to say I still have no idea how finals work and that little graphic just makes it more confusing

white line = winner, red line = loser (obviously only applies to first week).

How it works for us: win 3 games in a row and we win the comp

It's a little cringe (and it doesn't help that it is from the AFL) but this video explains the system pretty well

So who is everyone supporting tonight? For me I just cannot support those Storm turds.

 

[WahsaurusRex]

Wanting the Storm to win tonight.. if we lose tomorrow the potential of a 2011 replay would be about as good of a silver lining as there could be

Supporting though? Not sure if I would go that far lol

For some reason I'm loving the Storm dominance over the Broncs at Suncorp.

I can relate better to Brisbane more than I can to the Storm.

Also, Brisbane fans are generally supportive of us when we play so i will return the favour.

I also love watching Reece.

Up the BRONCOS!!

I love watching Reece throwing a tantrum so I hope the Storm run over them

I’ve been waiting to use this ..

I'm interested to see how this one turns out...Broncos obviously has had the better year, but Storm have the big name players who have been there done that.
We know that the Broncos shat the bed big time at the 2nd half of last year and all the talk was about their lack of experience etc, so for me I'm wondering if they have learnt from that or if they now have the experience to match it with the big boys come finals. A lot of their players are QLD reps too, so no excuses really.

I'm picking Storm by 4

Fast start from the Broncos followed by errors and Storm come back.

Maybe a Broncos/Storm halftime/fulltime bet?

With all our team talk, I only just remembered there was a game on tonight

Can't wait
