We win but go down????

[Avenger]

If the Sharks win tomorrow night we will slip down to second last despite that great win. We can thank our shit differential. What a crazy competition.

 

[Gronk]

We can't worry about what we can't control.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Doesn't really matter at this stage. If we win enough games to get equal 8th we'll turn the F/A around somewhat.

Yep. 3 from 7 still puts us right in the thick of it and the differential isn't -100, so we're doing ok.

 

[strider]

it won't matter when we raise the trophy on the long weekend in october

its shaping up to be one of the tightest competitions ever.

I really cant pick a wooden spooner yet which is unusual.

at the end of the day we need to win 13-14 games to make the finals (comfortably). 10 more to go.

I like it tight

 

[hineyrulz]

meh we continue to win games and it won't matter too much. Big win away from home today with a player down and against the refs,

 

[Bandwagon]

Reverse the result of Manly vs Dogs, they would now be in 13th instead of fifth.

Shows how tight it still is. Early days

As I said in another post, ladder positions are fairly irrelevant in Round 7. We just need to win 13 games (or at least 12 and have a draw somewhere) and we will make the Top 8.

10 from 17 is the scenario

I predicted before the season started that it will be the closest competition in history. There really isn't much between any of the teams on any given day. I still think there will only be a couple of wins between 4/5th and 13/14th by seasons end. F/A will definitely decide the Top 8 again. It wouldn't shock me if 4-5 teams finished on the same amount of points from 6th to 10th

The draw will determine this seasons comp more than ever.

It will never be a true competition untill all teams play each other twice, home and away.

 

[The Engineers Room]

The way that you make the finals is win all the home games and jag one away from home. We have dropped 2 home games so that win gets us back one of those but I would imagine we would still need to win another two away and win all the home games left.

 

[Avenger]

we need another 10 wins (not including byes) and are in the finals.

 

[El Diablo]

so if we keep on winning we'll get the spoon

What, like our for and against?

That's the spirit. :lol:

Doesn't seem right somehow.

More like how well other teams play when they're not playing against us.

 

[Gronk]

We've lost 4 and are only -22. I've seen us in much worse position.

Thanks scoop.
