That's good mate. Now all you need is a way of knowing the results of all games for the following season when the draw is announced and you can put out one that is 100% fair and equitable....except it still wouldn't be.

Note: If the Warriors had only lost to us by 2 points (or won) in the last game and jagged 8th spot, we would then have had 11 and the Warriors 9.

We played 12 games against last years top 8. That seems fair and equitible. It is not Penrith's or the draw's fault that Cronulla and Newcastle were failures this year.
I worked this out - this years top 8 vs last years top 8
Brisbane 14, Roosters 13, Manly 13, Penrith 12, Bulldogs 11, Cowboys 11, Rabbits 11, and Storm 11.
This gives a different picture and shows that we didn't have any easier draw than the others. In fact the Rabbits played more games against non top 8 teams than Penrith.
You can make statistics work any way you want!

And whichever way you spin it, we just beat the defending premiers, minor premiers and title favourites without 10 players. So it's no fluke we're in a prelim.

Wow funny how the 2015 draw has played out. Play the top 8 teams only 12 times (from top 8 2014 finishing order) a massive 3 more times than previous!!
We get the Storm and Eagles twice who are on the slide, Cowboys & Warriors once at home.
Best news is we play the Sharks only once at home , so hopefully we will get the win this time
2015 looks pretty good to me😄
