Kings Update:
After being forced to 3 games against the Tigers, then being forced to 3 games against the Crocs, the Kings are living true to my every prediction!
One sage's wise words to me: "Shane Heal can't live down to your opinion of him".
Well, guess again, Mr Sage!
When his side needed to lose, Hammer was there to pound his team's motivation with lacklustre performance of his own and zero motivation for his younger and more impressionable team-mates.
Result?
I say that it's hardy surprising to see Mr Stiff lose potency, and (Shake Your) Booty being able to get down but not get back up again, when Hammer is about as dangerous as a wet paper towelette in the paws of a quadraplegic gerbil with major brain damage.
Congratulations to the team for making it to the Grand Finals for the first time in franchise history.
I will devote considerable time and effort to lauding the team, if they win against Perth in 2 games. I will consider myself entirely vindicated if Hammer comes out firing for game 1, but sags for game 2, thereby ensuring the maxumum possible games played at home by the Kings.
