Good game. It seems to take the Tahs a little while to get into the game of late but they do turn on their defense and attack well. Pity Hewat and Lote couldn't convert their chances into tries, Hewats especially.

Currently on top of the pile, just got my informational pack about "If there's a final at Telstra Stadium", so I'm overall excited at the moment.

true... Hewitt's drop over the line was unfortunate but otherwise he played so well I can't fault him on it. Tuqiri's was also unlucky but just got a bad bounce onto his foot when there was no room for error.

sweet - any good info in that pack? I've moved addresses so missed out on mine...

Since this isn't the year for the Force, I'll be rooting for the TAHS to win it all.

What is the format of the playoffs?

I'm not typing this again... (copy/pasted from my post on another forum)

Only the top 4 teams go through to the finals series. The semis shape up like this:

1 plays 4 (At 1 home ground)
2 plays 3 (At 2 home ground)

Then the winners play the final at the highest ranked team's home ground. That is to say if 4 and 3 happened to win, the final would be played a 3's home ground.

Thanks dude! I didn't see it in the other thread. Although I'm sure with a little effort I could of found it, but after all it is Sunday my day of rest!

Don't worry mate, it wasn't on this site that I posted it. Just trying to avoid RSI where I can.

Confusing would be a good word to describe it... But that might have been because I just got back from the Hunter Valley. The letter was talking about when you can get tickets for the semi, depending on if the home final is assured before or after the 'canes match, then talking about how you get tickets to the final at Stad de Aus.
