The next 5 games ... and then the last 6

[Ozzi_78]

Cowboys A
Broncos A
Warriors H
Raiders A
Bulldogs A

Unlikely we win all but if we did that would put us on 22 points with 6 rounds to play.

Traditionally 30 points gets you to 8th easily.

We’d have to find 4 wins out of the last 6 games.

Manly H
Warriors A
Knights H
Tigers A
Broncos H
Storm H

What say you?

 

[Ozzi_78]

I have us winning 7 / 11 and finishing on 26. A scrap for 8th.

 

[Tiger Shark]

We've got a favourable second half of the draw compared to the first, and we should have most of our troops back too.

I like our chances, and even if we only scrape in, or we just miss out atleast the season will become interesting again.

A few months back it was looking bottom 4 material.

 

[fizman]

We win the next 10, lose to the Storm in the last round to hand Craig his last and final Minor Premiership with the Storm.

We finish 5th and get to the Preliminary Final only to be knocked out by an Ashley Klein error that changes the momentum of the game.

 

[carinashark]

No way we should be in the eight we have not got the cattle. After the clean out and new coach maybe but not this year. We should be trying new combos over the remaining games. Hazelton, Pele, Valesquez and Metcalf should all be getting time.

 

[bluefox68]

I’m feeling positive.

Two guaranteed losses - Manly & Melbourne…

 

[R-15-3]

It’s a good building block to work towards for next year, getting belief back in the squad, players back in form, test out a few guys. Can see a few guys leave and join the club by seasons end 2.

26 will definitely jag 8th spot…. Possibly even 24 with a good f/a

But for mine it’s a dog fight for 8th. I’d really line to see three things though..

beat the Broncos, Manly and the Bulldogs.
Do that and I’m sweet.
Especially Manly but me thinks someone will need to hobble Turbo.

 

[Card Shark]

That’s a pretty easy draw.

4 of the next 5 away is a worry.

That has been a problem for a while.

To me every game is away.

Who replaces Wade? Sifa or Teig? I’d go Teig, you’ll get a solid 80 out of him leaving sifa for the impact middle.

 

[Inferno]

Either would do a job but I reckon Teig. Talakai's impact off the bench is too important at the moment.

I like Sifa as a middle more than an edge. I’ll go out on a limb and put Trindal to start in the backrow with Wilton on the bench. He has added size and without the responsibility of being an impact off the bench or 1/2 responsibility might suit him.

 

[spirit of league]

Trindal to start in the backrow

Haa! I think you might've stepped out a little further there than just "on a limb".

It's not that silly IMO. He has the ballskills, toughness and kicking game to play Wade's role on the left. Haven't seen much of his left to right pass but he's a half, how bad could it be. He's been pretty resilient in his time off the bench as a forward actually. 80 minutes would be the challenge

 

[Frenzy.]

Someone in here doesn't like Sharks onesies HAHAHAHA

 

[Big Bloke]

Why can’t we win them all?

 

[imasharkie]

don't Storm traditionally rest players in their final game of the year.
