Picture Gregg Porteous Source: News Limited NRL Preliminary Finals, Channel 9 and GEM in Melbourne, 7.30pm tonight and Saturday night Brett Ned Stewart is okele-dokele for tonight's match Mystery over Russell Crowe's Playboy promise What's it going to be boys? Souths or Manly? Prince wasn't available to saunter out and play Purple Rain at half-time? We'll never know. That'll be the headline in Perth - everywhere - won't it? Purple Reign? Freo will win. I don't mind saying this out loud on the globally available internet, who cares, it's only football. Obviously it's been a long season for all of us. Fremantle are Brisbane a decade ago. Momentum's carrying them. Momentum, and that big purple bus of fanatics. Do you think people in those towns just thought it was the sequel to Priscilla Queen of the Desert driving through? And, sure, talent is also carrying them. Plus Freo have had a nice relaxed few weeks, what with most of their normal team having a break in the last round - genius - then that handy week off during the finals. That game last week, holy crap it was boring, but didn't they put Sydney away. Hard to see them really smashing Hawthorn but they'll see them out. They're miserly and Hawks can't kick straight and that'll be enough. It'll be ugly too, and I don't just mean in a brown and yellow way. Ryan Crowley? Try and stop him. Have you ever looked into his eyes? Our neighbours when I was a kid had a cattle dog that reminds me of Ryan Crowley and someone had to shoot him in the end. So clearly now you'll be on him for the Norm Smith Medal. You'd be off out somewhere special to watch the game tomorrow probably, but if you're entertaining at home, why don't you mute Channel 7 - not for the first time, I'm thinking - and put on Roy and HG on ABC Newsradio. No better callers. Yes, I realise this is technically a television column. They're also calling the NRL grand final. And I have concerns there because tonight it's everyone's team, the adorable South Sydney Rabbitohs, up against the sly Manly Sea Eagles, Tony Abbott's team when he's facing an election. I just don't like how this feels. I don't trust Manly. They're hard to tip against. Same with the Roosters, who are playing Newcastle tomorrow night. I hope it's not a Manly-Roosters grand final but I fear it could be. But I will say this: the beauty industry can't get enough of peptides. AFL v NRL It's final, my game is better Not Sport The Neighbours, Channel 7, 6.30pm I was excited about this show when I first heard about it, I thought it had the frisson of swingers about it. But then when it went in at 6.30 at night, well, we're all a fair way off that I'm afraid. I think what you'd call it is a family show. Do people still do that? I'm trying to picture that kind of family, one that sit around a television and watch something together, but I just can't. This would be the show to do that with though. It's pretty amusing and cute and, you know, harmless. You know how when you describe a person as harmless it's like code for they're soft in the head? I don't mean that. Or maybe a tiny bit. This is just like a family sitcom, only the family are space aliens with funny names. I won't say what they are because that's really the best joke of the night. The other family that moves into the neighbourhood are from the city - this is set in New Jersey, but not The Sopranos version of New Jersey, sorry - and the mother is Jami Gertz, who, massively depressing, was once Blair in Less Than Zero with James Spader and Robert Downey Jr but hey, we all get old. Even in Hollywood. I'm only talking to the women here obviously. Darren Criss stars as Blaine as Eleven shows new episodes of Picture: Supplied Source: Supplied Glee, Eleven, 7.30pm tonight This is the first of the three episodes in the short season that was filmed after Cory Monteith died and ends with the farewell to him and his quarterback/glee club pin-up character Finn Hudson. Happy face tonight though - the kids do a Beatles tribute, tonight and next week. Starting with early Beatles in this one, including Lea Michele - Rachel - singing Yesterday. Not sure how she got through that. But mainly it's Darren Criss, as Blaine, who has tonight's big storyline and most of the songs, including All You Need Is Love with a four choir back-up. And some really impressive sets and outfits too. You'll love it. Enjoy it because it's had it now Finn's gone. Don't miss ... Senna, Channel 7, 9.40 tomorrow night.
