Dogs have done it without those positions
Bulldogs have done it with one of the weakest spines in the competition. Their forward pack is just that good.

Full strength pack next week. They will be fired up for finals footy. Can picture a repeat of 2014.

Eels don't have to do anything, we've gifted enough points

Just keep targeting our back three and win easy ball, tries will come

It is an absolute tragedy the Warriors aren't in the finals.

And even worse that their style of football doesn't equate to winning games the way the sport is at the moment.
There's two facets of the game, if you can't defend you don't deserve to play finals.

Simple.

Does Hoffman seriously not know that rule? Even if he didnt it was explained to him... and he argues that.

Eels going to cross 40 with the kick, two teams with nothing to play for other than pride

Canberra is second and most people would tell you their defence is pretty shit. They score more points than they concede. That's all they have to do. If the game made some minor changes to encourage and reward attacking football the likes of the Warriors would win a few more games. And they only needed two more this year. When the sport rewards wrestling and endless decoy runs instead it's not what the game should be.

Yeah, lets change the rules because the Warriors can't defend.

Brilliant when it comes to beating up on teams during Origin, piss f**king poor when their destiny is in their own hands.
