Lock it in…If we are good flat track bullies the next 6 rounds might play Nicho into form for the bulldogs game. That’ll be the best opponent before a finals anyway. big turnaround for them, Galvin, media darlings etc, probably Ashley Klein. It’ll be what we need.
I just did the ladder predictor on the NRL website. If we win all remaining games I have us finishing 4th. The last round will be a shoot out between us and the dogs for 4th spot.
Raiders
Storm
Warriors
Sharks
Dogs
Broncos
Panthers
Sea Eagles
Of course, injury, suspension, form etc means that the above will be totally and completely wrong.
We live in hope!Ima say dogs win 2 of those games before they get to the last round.
I think all the teams above us are better, but our draw was damn hard at the start, much easier from here on.Hey I'd like us to finish up as high as possible but in reality do we actually deserve to finish 4th or 5th. I don't think so.
it is just that the other teams are a shit as we are.
I'm looking at the ladder and there are only two teams in the top 8 with a bye left, us and the Raiders.
Add the bye in and we are 5th, with a slightly worse F/A than the Warriors.
My Point?
Keep winning and a top 4 spot isn't off the cards just yet. I personally think we'll just miss it but it's not as far away as some look at it.
I think this year is the best comp in ages.If we are a serious threat for the top 4 than all that shows is how rubbish the comp is.
