Grand Final Thread!

[Jukes]

Fixtures
San Francisco Grizzlies vs Boston Terriers
FedEx Field, Washington DC (no HGA)

No surprises as to the grand final sides - at least one of the two has held a share of top spot every week this season. The Grizzlies are coming in on a 13-match winning streak, three of those coming against Boston, and look at times unbeatable (the key words being at times - they came within 3 points of losing at the second-last placed Hawks), finishing top of the table with 14 wins and 1 loss. Boston meanwhile are on a huge 1-match winning streak! They finished the season a very disappointing 10-5, before beating Peru and Quito and losing to SF in the finals. Boston lost to Colorado, Houston, Peru, and San Francisco (twice), but also became the first (and, so far, only) team to crack the 140-barrier - inconsistency that could either hurt them this week, or win them the game. San Francisco would have beaten Boston if they had played (and, in two cases, they did play) the last four rounds, so I'll back my boys to get the job done.

As aforementioned, these sides have met three times this season:
Round 8: San Francisco Grizzlies 20.5.125 defeated Boston Terriers 19.10.124
Round 15: San Francisco Grizzlies 18.16.126 defeated Boston Terriers 18.13.123
Semi-Finals: San Francisco Grizzlies 21.11.137 defeated Boston Terriers 20.7.127

Lockout will occur at the start of Geelong vs Collingwood at 7:50pm EST on Friday the 28th of August.

...when I say "break", I want a clean break.............in the event of a knock-down, you will be directed to go to a neutral corner. "Are there any questions"?.."You are both professionals so I expect a good, clean fight"! ,"Protect yourself at all times"!.. "Okay, touch gloves and come out at the siren"!
;D
