0 all

Great defense from the home side. DWZ difuses the bomb

Results have gone the way of the Warriors so far this week, but it will all be in vein unless they can do their part. A win would cap off a massive season for the Panthers, and despite calls that they had an "easy draw" I believe a fourth place spot is well deserved.

0 all

After 26 rounds, for the visiting Warriors it all comes down to the next 80 minutes. A win, or loss by less than three will see them qualify for the finals. A loss by three or four sees the Broncos finish 8th. A win for the Panthers means they finish fourth,a loss and they finish 6th
