Finals Bound

[The Artist Formerly Known as Aku'd]

Going to be interesting who misses out. Raiders, Souths, Sharks, Knights and Cowboys all need to fit into 4 spots. Can’t see the order changing at all next week. Week 25 is where it’s all at.

Would I be getting too far ahead of myself by saying if we remain undefeated for the rest of the regular season we'll finish in the top 4?

A home final is now on our hands. But I'll be happy to put the dogs game to bed at this point.

The games against souths and the sharks are essentially worth 4 competition points now.

I’ve run my scenarios and this is my prediction:

1. Broncos
2. Panthers
3. Warriors
4. Storm
5. Rabbits
6. Knights
7. Sharks
8. Cowboys

Raiders? They'll drop out you reckon?

Yes, the Akumeter has them on 32 points same as Cows & Sharks but awful F/A will see them miss out

We've sucked the entire year.

Play two good games against two of the shlltest teams of the NRL era in the Dogs and Tigers, and its like the entire fan base has been hit with one of those Men in Black memory erasing devices.

We're still below par, people. Nothing has changed. Melbourne will dominate the middle and we'll go back to being too tired to do anything effective in attack and lose 13+

The sooner everyone wakes the fk up and stays angry the sooner we'll have a new coach and at least the potential for a brighter future.

This aged well

Wish the tigers won

I think my post was just after that about how all the best hot streaks start with the first win, then the second and so forth. It’s more fun and less stressful being an optimist

Just a thought bubble post but,

If we make the finals, I'm thinking landing in 6th if fiishing in the bottom 4 of the 8 is the sweet spot for us.

6th gets a home semi against 7th. And from there we can only face 2nd and 3rd on the run to the GF.

2nd or 3rd is the only other placing I'd want but we can't get there.

4th and 5th have to play 1st prior to the GF. 7th and 8th don't get a home semi, and 8th is in with 1st.

 

[frankLauda]

We will need to win every game to be any chance of getting 6th. Tough ask.

 

[MBQLD]

I see Tom Burgess will more than likely be unavailable to play through suspension against the Knights for South’s. Not complaining about that.

Any clues as to who might be stepping up for the missing Saf twins?

I think we can lose against Rabbits and still make 6th. Assuming Cows beat Sharks, Sharks beat Raiders and we beat Sharks. Etc etc etc…..lols. Let’s wait and see hey. I’m optimistic on 6th, but would take 8th!

 

[Kurriboy]

I'm just imagining a home semi. Atmosphere would be awesome.

4th and 5th have to play 1st prior to the GF. 7th and 8th don't get a home semi, and 8th is in with 1st.

If it’s possible to finish fourth, surely you’d take that? Knock off the Panthers or Broncos in week one and we have a home grand final qualifier.

 

[Frank McWilliams]

Thought we were more likely for finals on yesterday games, each game at some time had a big chance of upset but was not meant to be

One week at a time lads...

 

[what's that pong]

I did the ladder predictor how i think it will play out have posted in in this thread.

But also did it again with us winning all remaining games can only get as high as 5th

Not true. Mathematically, if the storm or warriors drop their easily winnable games, we can make the top four. If neither win again this season (not gonna happen), we end up in 3rd, warriors 7th and storm down at 10th

Amazing the storm could still theoretically drop the tenth, what a debacle that would be for them.
