Race for the top 8

[BraveTheWorld]

Highly unlikely?

What is that milquetoast shit?

We are better than Melbourne. No comparison on paper.

We will beat them. We will beat Souffs.

We will go undefeated to win the comp.

It's written.

I'm not confident enough to say we'll win the comp yet, but I don't see any reason to think that the game on Friday is any worse than a 50-50 for us.
We've played better than Melbourne probably for the last two months, and they were somewhat fortunate in our last encounter.

They haven't faced us with a healthy squad in years. It's time for a return to the 18', 19' era where we had their measure in big games.

storm winning by plenty away v another top 8 team really sets this week up. if we win that guarantees we'll finish in the top 8 and if i was a bookie i'd have us as second favourite to win the comp

I am reminded of this.

I agree with you. I normally wouldn't watch us play Melbourne or Souths live as both teams rile me up but I'm really looking forward to both games now..have ordered all my stress eating snacks in advance for the Souths game too..I don't encourage unhealthy eating habits but it doesn't count when its against them..

As for Melbourne, we have a pretty good track record down there..better than most..

Still a lot to play for as 3rd to 8th still up for grabs in Round 25 games - Broncos need a miracle but of course need to beat the Dragons to put pressure on the Raiders who play the Tigers - If Broncos finish on 30 and miss the finals it would have to be one of the highest comp point tally's a team has accumulated and still missed the finals if of course the Raiders also win vs Tigers

Panthers - 42 - /Cowboys - 42 points - 1 50-50 games

Sharks - 36- Knights - 38 points - 0 50-50 games

Cowboys - 34 - Panthers - 34 points - 1 50-50 games

Storm - 32 - Eels - 32 points - 1 - 50-50 games
Eels - 32- Storm - 32 points - 1- 50-50 games

Roosters -30- Rabbitohs - 30 points - 1- 50-50 games
Rabbitohs - 30 -Roosters - 30 points - 1- 50-50 games


Raiders 28-Tigers - 30 points - 0 -50-50 games
Broncos - 28 -Dragons - 28 points - 1 50-50 games- The way the Broncos are playing it's a 50-50 game


Round 25 games

Eels vs Storm
Bulldogs vs Sea Eagles
Roosters vs Rabbitohs

One down, one to go..

Then the 'season' starts for real...

If parr beat the storm by say 36 to 4 and roosters beat souths 38 to 4..total gain of 66 we jump to 4th and play Penrith. A dream with a life of 5 days!

[Lydon]

If Storm beat Parra and we beat Souffs, then we play Raiders from 5th spot..

Then if we beat Raiders we play the loser of Storm v Penrith away…No Thanks

[roosterproud]

we need to finish 5th
But i would like to beat be the rabble this week and climb into 5th. If we stay 6th we play the rabble again and then potentially the drizzle when they lose to the riff/.
while if we are 5th we play the faiders then the loser of the Cow v cronulla. easier side of the draw.

[NorfolkStreetKid]

I’m fairly sure if we come 5th and beat the Raiders, we then play the loser of Storm v Panthers away..

That would be awesome.

[Blue Suede Schubert]

The Finals format.

Pretty sure if we come 5th and win we play the loser of first v fourth

We can't finish 4th under any circumstances

Both Storm and Parra are 32 points already 4th and 5th - they play each other so one of them will be 34 points in 4th regardless of who wins and we are on 30 points so can't get to 34 mate - we can't do 4th even if they draw. If they draw we can't even do 5th.
