The only way i can see us making the 8 is a Roosters team that now gets every decision based on last weeks blow up with a few players back.... a close loss to the Storm 2-6 points and then hopefully a very tight game between the Titans and Warriors, with hopefully a Warriors upset.
I don't see us beating Melbourne as mentioned, they will go right through our middle all day and make 60+ a set.
Williams and Wilton will do to NAS what they done to Haas , the players must know they can't rely on Woods so they will step up . If we can keep the damage down thru the middle their backline is carrying some average players . I am staying positive , i want to win our way into the finals not on the back of other team results .yeah I can see NAS absolutely owning our pack and smith, Hughes and Hynes taking full advantage of it.
They want the MP too. They haven’t gone hard as they like. Oh and CB is still pissed about 2016.
Added to this, I reckon they’d rather us in the semis rather than the Raiders or Titans. They are more likely to go on a semis run than us.Heard an opinion on the radio, not a "caller" that they might tank to avoid the MP. What's a worth? A shitty $100,000 and a prestige which lasts till you lose the GF. Only 3 of the past 10 MPs have actually gone on and won the comp.
If they finish second they avoid the Eels who just smacked them and Manly who can smash then. Finish second they'll likely get the Rabbits without Mitchell.
For the record, I don't subscribe to this "theory" but do see some sense in it
You think the Titans are more likely to go on a run than us?Added to this, I reckon they’d rather us in the semis rather than the Raiders or Titans. They are more likely to go on a semis run than us.
Yes. Send out 4-5 Latrells to shorten the prix upI don't particularly watch much footy outside sharks games these days but hughes, smith, grant and even nicho are run first pass later type players aren't they? So is there some sort of game plan possible to counteract this?
Or am i just spouting utter bollocks as per usual

Totally Agree and REALLY hope you are right. Anyway it makes the game worth watching , for a little while anyway!Williams and Wilton will do to NAS what they done to Haas , the players must know they can't rely on Woods so they will step up .

Can’t see cheese playing, he looked cooked last week and would of been my first pick to need a rest.I reckon Hughes and cheese don’t play. Looking at the bench/reserves they will drop out as well.
You don’t name jacks and John’s for no reason
Yeah I get the feeling that won’t be the team that runs out for them. More changes.Can’t see cheese playing, he looked cooked last week and would of been my first pick to need a rest.
Yeah mate I do. They have underachieved this year - if they get some momentum, they have more danger players than us I reckon.You think the Titans are more likely to go on a run than us?
Raiders sure but the Titans?
nah man
Agree.I reckon Hughes and cheese don’t play. Looking at the bench/reserves they will drop out as well.
