For Manly to get into the 8 they need St George to lose to the Tigers and also make up what is currently 61 points in for and against.

If Saints lose, Manly will know how many they need to beat us by and it could be something ridiculous like 50 points. They'll have to play some risky footy so I hope it's raining.

I'm grateful for last weeks performance, hopefully it was the kick up the backside we needed and reminds us the type of footy we'll need to play this week if we 're any chance of winning.

Broncos and roosters will both win this week as they are pushing to win the minor premiership meaning storm and Souths can't catch us. That should put us either 4th if we beat manly or 5th if we lose and dogs beat warriors

I am happy with playing roosters (1 v 4) or St George (5 v 8) first week as i think we will win either of those just means if we played the roosters and win we go straight to a home preliminary final

I want to play roosters week 1 but if the ladder says current we won't bump into storm to GF and that works fine for me with the storm being a bogey team for us. I still remember 2008 prelim final

thursday: brissy v melbourne - need brisbane to win

friday - roosters v souths - need roosters to win

that will guarantee us no lower than 5th, so we either get 2 bites of the cherry or a home final

If we get 4th and lose week 1 do we get a home (sydney) semi the next week?

According to the papers we may not get a home final depending upon the opposition. If we play dogs or rabbits it is to be at ANZ because they have a bigger support base.

I tend to agree. It is in the team's hands to take fourth, and to win the big gig we really ought to be able to take Manly. We shouldn't be focusing on who beats who.

I reckon we will win this on too.

We still seem to get a decent amount of support if we play in the city. HB and his bandwagon supporters will turn up ;) plus it's easier to get to the city then it is to get to shark park if you live in the Shire

There's not really much difference between finishing first and second so I wouldn't be surprised if both teams rested a player or two. For example, I would rest Hodges.

It is much better than being shipped of Melbourne or QLD I guess, still not right.
If we played souths or the bulldogs I'm guessing if played at that ****hole homebush the crowd still wouldn't be above what the capacity of the SFS is.
