Qualifying Final:Melbourne Storm(2nd) vs South Sydney Rabbitohs(3rd)

Elimination Final:North Queensland Cowboys(5th) vs Brisbane Broncos(8th)

Elimination Final:Canberra Raiders(6th) vs Cronulla Sharks(7th)


So what are your predictions of who will meet each other in the NRL Grand Final

My Prediction is:Canterbury vs Melbourne Grand Final and Canterbury to win the Grand Final

Much as I hate to say it, the Bulldogs have to be favoured. They have been playeing well over the last 3-4 months.

The other half of the equation is a lot less clearcut- Melbourne have had a couple of dry patches lately, Canberra and Cronulla are just too inconsistent. Nth Queensland may be a bit of a smokey, but not sure if they could keep up their form into the finals. Brisbane have not impressed since SOO.

That leaves Manly and South Sydney. The Rabbitohs have been impressive and Manly have, too.

My prediction is Canterbury to beat Souths in extra time, but would love to see it go the other way.

It would be a fairytale if Souths could make the grand final after 41 years when they last won the Grand Final

This Friday and Saturday are the NRL Grand Final Qualifiers with The Final Four

Melbourne Storm vs Manly Sea Eagles

Canterbury Bulldogs vs South Sydney Rabbitohs

So who will be in the NRL Grand Final 2012

My Prediction:Manly vs Canterbury for the Grand Final

Heart says 'Storm', brain says 'Manly'; so I'll agree with you wwe84: Sea Eagles vs Bulldogs, with Bulldogs to win GF by 7.

Partner (ex NSW) says Manly... and I think they will play Rabbitohs !
But as I'm officially over any form of football after those dastardly Magpies beat the Eagles last night.. and the Crows beat the Dockers the night before...

MikeMaster99 i'm a Storm supporter but i'm going with my brain aswell i reckon Manly will beat Melbourne by 2 and The Bulldogs will beat Souths by 12

2012 NRL Grand Final takes place September 30th 2012
