Who'll make the top eight

[coolumsharkie]

Sharks have got major problems in attack, they also have a tough run home.

I wouold say they wont make it... I think it depended on the last two games all in all.

Dodger's still a farkin skin crawl though.

1. Storm - 42
2. Eels - 34
3. Cowboys - 34
4. Sea Eagles - 30
5. Tigers - 30
6. Warriors - 28
7. Sharks - 28
8. Broncos - 28

16. Bulldogs - 16

i've just punched some results into the finals calculator.. and im surprised to find this:
1. Storm
2. Eagles
3. Cowboys
4. Tigers
5. Eels
6. Knights
7. Sharks
8. Broncos

now i'd like to add that i actually had the knights losing a lot of games.. the only dicey one i had them winning was the warriors in NZ...

 

[Tom Shines]

I would love Brisbane to come eighth, and Melbourne transfer the game to the Telstra Dome. Give it a real "f-you all for the Grand Final" kind of deal.

 

[Wiki Worriers]

Yep i punched the nrl calculator and this is my top 8
! Melbourne
2 Eels
3 Manly
4 Cowboys
5 Tigers
6 Warriors
7 Bulldogs
8 Broncos
Ended up with a final between eels and storm suprisingly

 

[Apey]

Storm - meh, easy
Eels - I think they're going to slide past the Eagles
Eagles - Going well, but I think they have a few more to lose
Cowboys - mm not sure about this, very unpredictable. if they keep in good form though.
Broncos - In form, I think they will be here or higher.
Warriors - 3 wins in a row and they're starting to fire up
Titans - Despite the recent loss they are still playing well
Knights - I really think that once we get settled back in with our players we will just make the 8. Our newbie halves are improving and the return of our stars will just lift our confidence immensely. I'm suspecting 9th or 10th if we don't make the semis.

 

[Rovelli]

With the Knights, the one thing that is REALLY counting against them is their differential.

If multiple teams are tied for a playoff spot, Newie will MISS OUT because of that differential.

So, message to Brian Smith: if you win a game comfortably, try win by 40, and not by "just" 20.

Similarly, if you have lost a game, try scoring a consolation try(s) to soften the blow.

 

[Tom Shines]

1. Melbourne Storm
2. Manly Sea Eagles (well done, Scoop)
3. Wests Tigers
4. Parramatta Eels
5. North Queensland Cowboys
6. Gold Coast Tits
7. South Sydney FTW
8. Brisbane Broncos

Not a bad effort in the end... Tigers were disappointing, and I didn't expect the Warriors to come good.

 

[Gus22]

This is an easy one

Storm
Sea Eagles
Eels
Cowboys
Bulldogs
Warriors
Rabbitohs
Broncos

In approximately that order

To bomb out:
Tigers (as I predicted a while back, and quoted by bjm8 or whatever his name is in his sig)
Titans
Sharks
Knights

Well done!
Care to have a stab at next Mondays Lotto numbers please?

:lol:

Timmah pwned JD...Dogs still choked though :lol: @ Dogs

:lol: at Reni, Ryan and SBW

 

[Timmah]

Looks like in hindsight I "pwned" t-ba too. We made the top eight as predicted

 

[Dutchy]

Yeah but Reni and your other lovers are over-rated hacks.

Even.

 

[t-ba]

Also Rans last year, also rans this year.

I'd take Willow over Reni atm.

Semi-Finalists last year despite your protestations. Wrong is wrong - I counted my chickens and came up with the right sums. You didn't.

 

[Dutchy]

Will they make it this year?

 

[t-ba]

Where did you tip them this year sweetheart?

How are the dogs going to get out of this one? It's not like they can spend a million over the cap again like they did 2000 to get out of this hole!

 

[Dutchy]

Dogs need Jye

 

[Timmah]

Will they make it this year?

God no :lol: Playing terribly and no sign of it stopping.
