Yep, agree. Can't do any better than fifth or sixth. Losing all three could see us easily finish 7th or 8th, definitely don't want that!

No, would be good to get the 'home' final in the first week. Wouldn't mind finishing 5th and Brisbane sneaking into 8th.

Losing all three could see us miss out all together.

1 or 2 wins should guarantee no worse than 6th and a final in Sydney.

Am praying that Knights dont make it. If they do, we will probably face them i reckon. Warriors or Penrith i could handle coming up against

i want to avoid warriors or brisbane, i could handle titans raiders or panthers. 50/50 on newy, but we should have the 2-0 split on them except, well, **** them

Titans I could definitely handle, especially if its in Sydney. Id hate for us to drop to 8th and have to play Dogs

I am not sure about the Cowboys v Knights.

Part of me wants the Knights to win , which ends the Cowboys season.They are looking dangerous and would come to Sydney deflated the week after.

On the other hand , a Cowboys win keeps the Knights off our tails.

Just keep winning ourselves I guess is the answer.

Want Cowboys to beat the filthy knights. I'm confident we can beat the Cowboys at our joint. Beat the Raiders,win 3 semis in a row, then win the GF in the final minute. Easy

ffs who cares who we play - just make the 8 at least.

We won't make top 4, so it really doesn't matter who we play in the finals - just make sure we get there.

If we're trying to avoid playing certain teams in the finals - we won't win it anyway.

Agree with this. To me it should be quite simple. If the game invloves two Sydney teams play it at ANZ or Allianz. If it's an out of Sydney team play it at the home ground.

Makes sense so doubt the NRL adopt that approach although would prefer the massive homebush stadium is left for GF only if possible.
