If either of these teams make the 8, it'll be 8th spot and no better
If by some miracle, either team made 8th, you'd think the 5th place team, playing in a knockout at their home, would hardly be quaking in their boots.
But it is a long season. I've already thought no body could lose to Newcastle, Manly would lose every game so far, Tigers would be decent, Warriors wouldn't be any good, even with Foran, Dragons would struggle, Eels would be good, and Storm would be undefeated half way into the season. Shows what I know!
