I'd hate to be the fan of either club in this game. Alot of what will happen depends on the games before them.

You would hope it's Canberra, meaning one less wanker Sydney team in the 8. But then it's Canberra. So unfortunately the Wobbegongs by 10.

I think your LU career will be defined by this thread. Looking forward to it.
If you want my actual, honest opinion - we don't deserve to be anywhere near the finals. This season is a write off and it's only going to get worse next year without changes - which won't happen with Sticky at the helm.

I see no value in prolonging this season any longer than we have to and genuinely hope we miss the eight.

Only the top five deserve to be there imo

Think u mean 4. Newcastle don't deserve to be there

Bait surely. They’re equal first for tries scored and have managed to get into the finals with an entirely different spine to what they started with and long-term injuries to half their spine and co-captains throughout the year.

I’m one of those most negative Knights fans there is, but they’re definitely deserving of their spot.

On the game, this was the hardest to pick in terms of final contention games. Raiders have been pretty poor all year but they weren’t awful against Brisbane where Sharks last game was terrible.

Given the Sharks' inability to beat the Raiders in recent history and the 2023 Sharks showing no ability to overcome any kind of adversity, I suspect it will be a Raiders win.
