Souffs and Melbourne will stay. I think Penrith and Drags are a good chance to drop out, replaced by 2 of Roosters, Sharks and Broncos.

Obviously don’t want to be bias to the Warriors but they have a massive chance here.

Good draw and if they can do what most Warriors side’s can’t (play consistent), then they should be able to win all 3 of their last 3 games and finish top 4. Based on how the draw has panned out I can see the winner of their round 24 clash against Penrith making the 4. The Sharks are the only other side I can see possibly making the 4. Dragons and Broncos have a slim chance.

I agree

I think warriors will do it.

With Penrith having 3 consecutive get out gaol games, 4 from 4 might even leave us short.

Really needed the Titans to hold on yesterday.

Well Sharks are back in the race.

Their last 3 "easy" games don't look all that easy at the moment. But Panthers and Warriors have some tough games coming up.

Dragons surely have to improve on this week's effort.

Panthers obviously have to be favourite now being a game up, but probably any team in the race that can win 3 in a row will make it.

I suppose theoretically the Storm could still drop from the 4, but their huge differential probably keeps them in the 4 even in the unlikely event they lose 2 of their last games.

Good race for the top 4 still, and Tigers and Broncos have made what seemed like a settled top 8 a good contest too.

Panthers vs Warriors in a fortnight will be a huge game for the eventual standings. Panthers win that and they’re almost there, Warriors win and shit gets real interesting as our other two games are theoretically easier (Dogs in Sydney and Canberra in Auckland).

Sydney Roosters, South Sydney Rabbitohs and Melbourne Storm are certainties for the top 4.

The remaining 4th spot is between the NZ Warrriors and Penrith Panthers.

I have no doubt that the Sydney Roosters will face one of those above named clubs in the Grand Final.

Sharks and the warriors both have better draws than the dragons and panthers. I'd say it'll be
4 sharks
5 warriors
6 panthers
7 dragons

Not sure how you can conclude Warriors are a chance and not the Sharks. Warriors would probably have to beat the Panthers to make top 4, which brings Sharks back in to it (on same points but better differential than Warriors).

Oh that's right, grand statements with no reasoning are your thing. Carry on...

The Warriors game will likely be for a place in the top 4 for us. The Panthers have been written off all year but they have won an identical number of games as the Storm. Underestimate them at your peril.
