LADDER WATCH

[Frenzy.]

We're 7th on win percentages, or taking out points for byes, and sliding fast.View attachment 75423View attachment 75424

Lose to the Bulldogs and it's almost into the abyss.

Teams ahead of or equal to us that have the bye next round are Broncos, Rabbits, Dolphins, Raiders and Warriors.

Like I said a month ago. Have to win the rounds when the teams around us have the bye.

 

[Ozzi_78]

Back in 4th.

If we beat the warriors there would be a 4 point gap. Yes I’m still not over it.

Dare I say it but a Roosters win next up would be nice

Nice one.

Back in the top 4, results went our way

 

[Craigshark]

Eels in the 8, we beat them. Can the media stop the bs about not beating top 8 sides now?

 

[txta2]

If you look at the wins they aren't in the 8. In other words they are pushing shit up hill to make the finals with Cowboys climbing up the ladder. If they lose any games they are expecting to win its all over because looking at the 8 I can't see no other team falling out.

 

[bluefox68]

If we win by 13+ and Broncos (playing Dolphins) and Storm (playing Panthers) lose, we’ll be in 2nd spot.

With 2 more byes and 2 less wins than the Broncos who will be on the same points.

Forget the ladder. It lies. Fake 2nd.

Why ? Our only hope is that not beating top 8 sides is part of strategy of 1. Not peeking to early ---- 2.Not alerting other sides and coaches to our threat, 3.keeping strategies against top 8 sides Secret. Im hoping this is what Sharks are doing .... but then I am the eternal Optimist!............ Still cant see how keeping some deadwood in the side is part of this strategy ..... But as I say --- Eternal Optimist!

You could also look at the positive side of not having byes left in that during those rounds we have the opportunity to add to our for and against whereas someone like the bunnies who may be on similar points won’t

[Mr Angry]

Table means pretty much nothing until the last 3 rounds

 

[Mr Angry]

We copped 50. So academic for us.

I feel some still have hope.

I have hope for next year.

I tip Melbourne, sadly.

It’s a sorry state of affairs when I’d rather Melbourne win it than the other front runners (Panthers/Broncos)

 

[Quigs]

Please Gods of League don't let it be the Donkeys.

 

[toomuchsoup]

The 50 stat will be broken one day. 49 has won it. Optimism!!!

[Ozzi_78]

Raiders in the top 4 with -55 diff. Ridiculous

 

[fizzgig]

They've still won more games (11) than all other teams except the Broncs (12) and Panthers (11). Points difference don't matter in that situation - just shows their losses are huge but they can still win a close game like tonight. 7th on Points For, 14th Against - worse than the Tigers.
