The first week of the finals are in the books as ESPNs NRL expert Brett Kimmorley casts his eye?over which teams have what it takes to win it all while laying down some hard truths on one of the top sides in his latest edition of Set of Six.Panthers are title challengersWhat an exciting team this Panthers side is to watch. They trailed 6-4 at halftime and in the second forty, you really got to see how many football options the Panthers have.?They play quite a lot of ad-lib football and because of that theyre going to be very damaging and very hard to stop in this years competition.Broncos are no one-trick poniesThe Broncos are usually a great defensive side and we often overlook just how good they can be in attack. They scored a whopping 44 points in a semi-final, which is a fair outcome and extraordinarily exciting for their fans.That performance should give them a lot of confidence going forward and put them in the right frame of mind to cause a potential upset against the Cowboys on Friday night.Sharks prove doubters wrong Nobody gave the Sharks any chance of defeating the Raiders on Saturday night - with Paul Gallen ruled out on the day of the game, Sam Tagataese missing and Wade Graham getting hurt 10 minutes into the match, it was amazing they were able to turn their form around.They were one of the sides that really limped into the finals and didnt carry great form into the match but on the back of a brilliant defensive effort and amazing resilience, I thought it was an incredible win.They say this time of year is a whole new competition and brand of football and the Sharks kindly reminded us why they went unbeaten for 16 matches in a row during the home-and-away season.Raiders cant win without AustinCanberra hooker Josh Hodgson went down with around 30 minutes to go during the game against the Sharks, and the Raiders looked completely void of attacking options. Now with Hodgson in doubt for the remainder of the season, Canberra need Blake Austin and his return next weekend against Penrith couldnt come at a better time.There was more than enough in that game against the Sharks to suggest the Raiders shouldve won that game. Austin needs to play and if he doesnt, I cant see Canberra advancing any further in the competition unfortunately.Storm enjoy big-game pressureWe saw the Storms composure in a crucial round 26 game against the Cronulla Sharks, when they had a 16 from 16 completion rate at halftime. They just know how to control a match, grind a game out and they very rarely make mistakes.Against the Cowboys, I thought that was exactly how they won the game. They are the best in the competition at controlling the contest, behind Cameron Smith who controls the ship. If youre going to beat the Storm youve got to play the house down.?Refs need to quell influenceUnfortunately they have been the topic of conversation over the course of the weekend and have become the headlines out of a few games.Theyve made some howling decisions and one thing I have learned is that there will be mistakes unfortunately but it needs to become a much more consistent area.In an ideal world, I would love to have the referees removed from discussion over the next three weeks of football so that we can find out who the best team is without any potential controversies.

A soft broken-bat ground ball off the bat of Nick Liles scored Fehlandt Lentini from third base and gave the Winnipeg Goldeyes a come from behind 4-3 victory over the Quebec Capitales. "Thanks for reminding me, Id forgotten about it (1,000 wins) already," said Goldeyes manager Rick Forney shortly after Sundays game ended. "Congratulations has to go to Hal Lanier who contributed so much to this organization and brought us so many of those wins and to Doug Simunic who was here for the first two years and helped introduce independent professional baseball to Winnipeg. It was nice to get the win at home." With the victory, the Goldeyes improved to 16-13 and won four of six games on the homestand. They also won back-to-back series for the first time since the opening road trip in mid-May. Regardless of what happens later in the day, the Goldeyes continue to hold onto at least a piece of first place in the American Associations North Division. It was a sensational bottom of the ninth for the Goldeyes. With one out and the Fish trailing 3-2, Leonard Davis had a terrific at-bat and got a 3-2 fastball from Quebec closer Chris Cox that he drilled into the right-centre field gap for a double. Right behind him came Fehlandt Lentini, who banged a single up the middle to score Davis and suddenly the Goldeyes were deadlocked at 3-3. Luis Alen came in to pinch hit for Nate Samson, but on a throw over to first designed to keep Lentini honest, Rene Leveret mishandled the throw and Lentini hustled into second. Cox walked Alen intentionally and that brought up Nick Liles. On the second pitch to Liles, Lentini stole third and that set up Liles unintentional heroics. With the count 2-2, Liles hit a high, broken-bat chopper to third baseman Jonathan Malo, who inexplicably was playing deep at third. Malo trried to throw out Lentini at home, but it wasnt even close.dddddddddddd. Liles had the game-winning RBI and the Goldeyes had a huge come from behind victory. "That was Leonards best at-bat in quite some time," Forney said. "Its why you play all nine innings. He got behind 1-2 and didnt give up. He kept fouling them off, worked the count and got a pitch he could drive. That at-bat put some energy back in the team. It was huge for us." Another thing that was huge for the Goldeyes was starter Matt Ruschs performance. Quebec took an early 3-0 lead. They scored a run in the first off an RBI single from Sebastien Boucher and then added two in the second as Malo and Leveret each drove in runs, but the Goldeyes got two in the bottom of the third as Amos Ramon singled home Jordan Guida and a Josh Mazzola ground out to short scored Tyler Graham from third. Thanks to Rusch, who settled down and stopped Quebec cold, the Goldeyes never trailed by more than 3-2. Rusch, who didnt get the decision, finished the game by retiring 13 Capitales in a row. "We had a depleted bullpen and I needed eight innings from Matt today," said Forney. "I didnt tell anybody that, but I dont know who I could have used. I want to use Aaron Correa in a spot start on Tuesday, so I didnt want to be in a situation where I had to go down there. Matt finished so well. It was a tremendous effort. Patrick Keating (3-0, 0.71 ERA) got the win for Winnipeg, while Cox (0-1, 6.75 ERA) suffered the loss for Quebec. Lentini was the only Goldeyes batter to have a multi-hit game, going two-for-four with a run scored and the game-tying RBI. With another solid game, Lentini raised his batting average to an even .300. Immediately after Sundays game, the Goldeyes boarded the bus to head for St. Paul where theyll open a three-game series on Monday night.
