Any predictions?

I will go Bank Quay 26-8, the pack will be to strong with Craig White MOM

I think with it being so close to Xmas, the team who copes with Xmas excess the best will probably win it.

Both teams are going well at the moment, so I'm sitting firmly on the fence. I think it will be closer than your prediction though, especially if it's wet conditions.

Just read the report on the NWC website and either written by Blackbrooks biggest supporter or sour grapes from the NWC.

Apparently Quay only scored from Brook gifts but the reality is that Quay would have run away with it had John Farrell not been the ref doing his uppermost to keep brook in the game

They need to look at his performance as he can't keep getting away with things like that when he ref's bank quay

From a neutrals perpective I thought it was generally a good, well balanced game with both sides turning up to play. BB looked capable of scoring with lots of pace and some slick handling but BQ looked dangerous everytime they got into BB's 20. I think both sides dropped a bit more ball than they'd like to but both defences were very good throughout. BQ looked to have made some really good signings and will no doubt be a force to be reckoned with this summer. MoM's for me were Blackbrooks 9 and Bank Quay's 13.

Brook 9 was excellent as he was twice against Quay last year credit where it is due
