Round 21: Other Merkins

[Poupou Escobar]

We are equal fourth with Brisbane and North Queensland. That means we only have to win more of our remaining games than them to finish higher on the ladder.

If Manly win tomorrow they are also equal fourth.

 

[Happy MEel]

They both have a harder run home compared to us as well.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

And Manly are very unlikely to win tomorrow.

You trying to test me, merkin!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

By 'equal fourth' I mean 'on 28 competition points'.

 

[T.S Quint]

By 'equal fourth' I mean 'on 28 competition points'.

Our differential has really screwed us this year. Could be further up the ladder.
It's like we're a whole win behind those other teams on the same amount of points.

If Manly lose tomorrow we will be a whole win ahead of them, despite their superior for-and-against. We're also two wins ahead of the Dragons and Panthers, who both have better f/a than us.

Good analysis pou.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Did I not make my point? Differential only matters if they finish on the same competition points.

 

[Twizzle]

And Manly are very unlikely to win tomorrow.

did you back the Storm ?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

did you back the Storm ?

No, Manly.

 

[BoneyBlake17]

What a disgrace that the melbourne storm are celebrating their 10 year anniversary of cheating to a premiership.

Another gutless decision from the nrl to stand there do nothing and let them do it.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah where's the contrary conduct charge for that?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

What is Kenny actually being charged with? Conduct which is contrary to the vibe?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

That's all it could be.

To be honest, I'm glad that they can charge blokes for being grubs. I just wish they would do it to players on other teams than just ours. The NRL has set a precedent. I hope they stick to it.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Yeah, maybe so. I wouldn't mind if they stopped players rubbing opposition players on the head after an error.

 

[The EELiminator]

Yeah, maybe so. I wouldn't mind if they stopped players rubbing opposition players on the head after an error.

but that would lead into stopping kenny from hugging opposition players when we score a try

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

True. Not sure he does it anymore though.

 

[strider]

That's all it could be.

They wont - it would make a mockery of their inconsistant approach to being consistant about such things

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Go the Storm!! (Euuurrgh)
