You would have got some nice odds on a Bayern Munich-Chelsea final, with both teams starting outsiders in their semi-finals against Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively. Bayern has a huge advantage for the final as it will be played at its home ground - a venue that was decided well over a year ago.
NBA PLAYOFFS
And then there were eight. The Spurs take on the Clippers and the Thunder meet the Lakers for the right to play off in the Western Conference finals, while in the East Miami plays Indiana and Philadelphia confronts Boston to determine the top two there. And then we get to the championship series. The Heat are still favourites but Spurs and Thunder in particular have claims.
NRL PREMIERSHIP
The Melbourne Storm are clear of the rest on top of the ladder. The boys in purple look determined to claim a premiership they will feel they were harshly stripped of for salary cap breaches. The Brisbane Broncos lead the challengers, while Cronulla has surprised many. Manly is thereabouts again but pre-season faves Wests Tigers have work to do.
