Best I've ever seen Knewstubb play. Used to be a turnstile in defence
Yeah he's a completely different player from pre injury. Almost a bizarre turnaround.

I don't know what's in your wine today mate but it appears I'm suggesting that prior to his injury, he wasn't a very good player.

Fuck yes Ng Shiu! Beauty.
Well done boys. I disagree with Cama's selections and subs but he's getting it done.
Yeah, I don't know why Ng Shui came on so late, and after Ormond.
The DNA of this team is really defence but they can be exposed as Arg did.

Showed a bit of steel to grind out that win.
Awesome back to back tourneys for both our men and women.

So as the title is decided by knock out next round, men's 7s could still be champs this year, right? Just gotta win next leg, as all the rest has just been seeding
I don't quite follow, but it seems like it's a separate comp almost. The "league, and then the "FA Cup".
The latter based on seedings from the league.
Kinda like the A-League soccer trying to make more of the regular season.
But SVNS is trying to make an event of the knock out comp.
I think.

Yes, this is the first year for the new format where the top 8 teams play in the Grand Final. A country, in theory, could sneak in in 8th place and win the tournament and be the Series Champion.

I guess think of it like super rugby, a team wins regular season round robin, but then you enter the finals series and a winner emerges from that

As per the A League Premier's plate and the NRL minor premiership trophy. It feels like a separate competition, albeit an invitational one

Well you don't get invited unless you make the top 8.... eerily similar to a finals series.
