this week to make sure I do secure my spot
Moose wrote:You can pretty much put a line through the Broncos and rule them out to reach the Grand Final this year without Mccullough. Of the teams remaining only the Storm, Roosters and Sharks are genuine Premiership contenders. I think the Melbourne Storm will be there (I am also tipping them to win it) so just the Sharks and the Roosters remain. Hard to split them. Who does everyone else think will make the Grand Final alongside the Storm?

As a Chooks fan I don't think it's looking good for us. We've actually been towelled up the two occasions we've faced current Top 4 sides. Smashed by the Sharks and the Broncos. The latter is on a slide but still. When we came up against the Storm, they were missing the Holy Trinity and just narrowly won although we had a player or two missing ourselves.
I think the upcoming game against the Storm is a season defining game. If they can win or keep it very close then we're genuine contenders. If not we're just pretenders who can't beat the best but are better than the rest.

form right now is not all that important imo. as long as you can manage your way into a top 4 position, then form only matters once the finals hit, timing your run is everything. and you're still missing Friend and Gordon.
look at the Sharks last year. they drew in rnd 21 with the titans, lost in rnd 22 vs raiders, lost in rnd 23 vs dragons, and lost rnd 24 against the rabbits. they even lost rnd 26 to the Storm.
Cowboys in 2015.. lost rnd 22 to the sharks, lost rnd 23 to the rabbits, and lost rnd 25 to the storm. their last win in the regular season vs a top 8 side that year was in round 17 verse the dragons.
Top four is crucial, but aside from that, the finals are a different beast. though whoever manages to finish 4th is in trouble vs the storm at Aami in finals week 1

I reckon, looking at their draw, and considering the Macca injury, they are a better chance than that. Gonna head down now and get a slice unless someone can convince me otherwise in the next 10 min lol!

Playoffs one round away? and then the winner from each div moves up one? and loser from each down? or is there more than one way to get promoted?

Parra Premiers in 2017 is what I'm saying.

Fanatics leagues are currently determined solely on overall league position in the Fanatics Overall league. You could win L1 this year, but if your overall league position is 3000 then you'll be back in the party leagues next year.

Final sack of potatoes for anyone keeping score:
(C)am, McInnes
Vaughan, Fifita, James
JDB, Manners, Taumalolo, Taupau
Cleary, Munster, DCE
Cotric, Leulia
Teddy, RTS, Edwards
18th man: Hayne.
Leota, Tatola, Fai, Cleeland, Fine, Drew & Fogarty to round it out.
Was tempted to cashout to Lewis Brown or some other 19th man type at hlf/wfb/ctr, but eh, maybe Cleeland gets a run and kills it with Dogs being so shit.
Ranked an abysmal 6800th.. just climbing the bodies of those that have given up now it seems.

That's a solid 17 mate. I think Raiders might put in from here on out. BJ looked more involved and interested and I think that win might keep them rolling.
