    Not necessarily. We can win the remaining three and still make it.

    Though if we can jag one out of the next two we are in a good position.
    I really don't want to test that theory haha.

    Especially having to beat that mob in the new stadium. Will be a grand final to them. Melb won't be easy beats down there either.

    My concern is Canberra. Solely because they have such an easy draw, I can only see them losing one more game in the run home (vs Penriff).

      JWH got baited last night and it will cost the team with a likely suspension. Loosing Collins already due to HIA and now this. Thankfully we signed Lodge who I tip to have a big game against the drongos.

        We need to get our bench bigger especially with E Butcher suspended. The Broncos have big, fast and athletic forwards.

          Nice to see us beating the bottom teams as we should and picking up our points from those games as weren’t earlier in the season but the real test is the next fortnight agains Brisbane & Cowboys.
          We did beat them both in Queensland earlier in the year and we have been playing better, but last night was stuttery in attack and we have Collins out with concussion and two on report. They can do it but they have to be more disciplined and Sammy's got to improve his goal-kicking. It may have had something to do with taking the penalty goals last night.

            I agree about Raiders. However, if you look at the draw for Eels/Storm/Bunnies there is still a lot more to play out. One of them could easily drop out.

              Raiders also play Manly in their run home but yeh 4 winnable games(Titans/Dragons/Knights/Wests Tigers) - Penrith/Manly 50-50 games

              Roosters also need some results to go their way as well as winning their games - this round as an example- teams highlighted all getting up would be helpful

              Parra vs Penrith
              Sharks vs Souths
              Dragons vs Cows
              Warriors vs Storm
              Titans vs Raiders

                Sio Siua Taukeiaho is set to return next week. We will be short one prop/2RF due to Egan's one match suspension, so it depends on what Robbo does. He could give Naufahu Whyte a run or put Watson at 13, use Radley as the 2RF interchange or start Radley on the right edge and have Nat Butcher on the bench as the 2RF interchange and Hutch on the bench as utility.


                Playing against the Bronx next week, we gotta match their pack as they are big, powerful and fast so we need to find a suitable solution.

                  I'm excited about Whyte. Hope he gets a run...

                      It won’t be so easy now with Parra and Storm winning. Vermin likely too.

                        Storm lost to Eagles and Raiders. If Panthers lose to the Raiders and Bunnies it is going to annoy crap out of me.

                          Typical that the teams which we are in closest competition with all play the Riff in the next 3 weeks.

                            Panfers shit the bed against the Eels, I thought that might be the case with them missing Luai & Chrichton.
                            A couple more injuries, and the Panfers may be very vulnerable.
                            Could open up this competition for anyone to win it, rather than it being a one horse race.

                              We can’t control anything else. We just need to keep winning.

                              Im sure there will be some twists and turns in the run home yet anyway.

                                Top 4.... no.

                                But we should be playing finals now. And once we are in....only threat is Penrith.
