General Will we make the 8?

equation is simple, beat the shittest team in the comp to stay in the 4 and lock down a finals spot. if we dont win, we dont deserve it. regardless of the injuries

This is the best way to look at it haha.

Ah crap. We can still drop out of the 8. A lot less likely now but still possible. My PTSD has kicked right back in.

If it makes u feel any better Sportsbet aren’t even running odds on us to miss the 8 anymore- prior to manly losing we were paying $1.01

It would be final destination 7 for us to miss the 8 now

The final minute of the dolphins game really could still be season defining

So if we either win a game or Dolphins lose a game over the course of the next 3 rounds, that's the crux of our finals chances right?

It's gonna come down to that Raiders v Dolphins game on the last Sunday of regular season isn't it


God I hope we just demolish the Titans this weekend. Destroy them. Maim them. UNLEASH THE FURY!!!!

Still $1.01 to make the 8 at the NZ tab. the dolphins shouldn't have beaten us and been conceding stacks of tries since, that Herbie injury has done them in.

Stranger things have happened

haven't looked at the ladder predictor until now:

Win 3 and go to Canberra in the 1-4, who though they are better than us, ALL the pressure would be on them, ambush potential
Win 2 and getting one of Roosters or Broncos at home in the 5-8, more talented teams, but erratic, would have some sort of winning form.
Win 1 and similar story but in the 6-7, and in worse form.
Win 0 and we 8th and dog tucker no matter who we play.

Obviously want us to stay in the 4 but can't see it happening personally. However, out of the current top 4 teams I'd much rather play the Raiders in the first week.
