TODAY
CAMERON SMITH TO PLAY RECORD 356TH GAME
The Melbourne Storm(1) take on the Parramatta Eels (4) in the second of the qualifying finals this week at AAMI Park 4:10pm.
It will be a momentous occasion with Storm Captain, Queensland Captain, Australian Captain, Cameron Smith playing his 356th Premiership Match - breaking Darren Lockyer's 355 first grade appearance record.
This is an incredible achievement, by a true legend of the game and Cameron will be honoured accordingly with a medal presented by NRL CEO Todd Greenberg following the match.
Whilst we at Community News would love to see the underdog Eels rise up to defeat the $1.20 favourites, we do believe that the Storm will be much too strong today.

ELIMINATION FINAL 1
Teams 6 and 7 battle it out tonight and for the second time in a week in the first of the sudden death showdowns.
Manly won last week and will go into tonight's match as $1.55 favourites - so the Panthers will be out for revenge.
Who is your favourite for tonight?
We at Community News wish all four teams 'good luck' today and we know we are in for two great games.
Steemians should reply here with their score predictions - plenty of upvotes for the best guess!

Parra are value with +12.5 points and I reckon Manly and Penrith will put a stink on. That game could get messy.

4/5 bet on Eels with 14+ start - and 1/5 on Eels win at $5.20. SirKnight likes living dangerously!

Hi FB - SirKnight said to say he had a great day - won on the Eels 14 point start bet and won on the Chocolate Soldiers! Soldiers paid $2.50 too. SirKnight remarked - 'boy I love finals football!'
