Nice Work stuff.co.nz 

From the first paragraph of their article on the AB clash with France...
The match featuring the tournament hosts against the tournament tournament
favourites New will deprived the World Cup of one of its marquee teams for
the final two weeks.

Only three blatant errors in two lines.

I'm picking early that the ABs will win 35-23, which will probably be considered a very unconvincing win by us folks in NZ (especially considering our recent results v France have been 61-10, 42-11, 23-11, 47-3, 45-6 and 40-13) but I think we should just take anything we can get from here on in, ugly or otherwise.

And good on Melbourne for winning the title. They thoroughly deserved it. And boy Manly were horrendous. That was the most one sided Grand Final that I can recall since the 1990s when the Broncos won a few fairly easily and the Raiders dicked the Bulldogs. Although to be honest, since the epic final in 1989 between the Raiders and Tigers there have been fuck all close ones. I can only think of about 4 that have been decided by 6 points or less out of about 18 matches.

Bring back the cliffhanger!!!!
