To be fair, the Warriors will drop out of the "middle" bunch of teams over the next month or so if they continue the way they're going.
It's still only round 6 and we've still got Origin to mess with the comp.
Maybe. They don't seem any less consistent than other middle teams like mine (Sharks) or the Panthers, for example. Which is to say they are horrible, but so are many of the other teams fighting with them for a finals spot.
Origin should help the Warriors a bit, but will definitely play havoc in general with a number of teams who are already struggling.
The competition is wide open in terms of finals spots, though everyone else is playing for the right to be knocked out of the finals by Souths, Canberra, Melbourne or Roosters if they don't improve.
