General 2024: Will we make the top eight?

[jonesy101]

The official NRL ladder gave the Dragons a point today. They sure love Flanno.

 

[Worried2Death]

It's quite obvious to me the stage is set for a sneak into 8th spot and a deep finals run lead by the return of a firing SJ.

That's my story anyway and I'm sticking to it!

Did I leave my bong at your place bro

 

[jonesy101]

One game at a time as we'll be facing an Eels side desperate for a win on Friday night, but it is conceivable we'll be having a top 8 showdown with the Dolphins the following week.

Try telling these non-believers of little faith, they won't believe you

 

[Ref]

I think we’re capable of going on a run but we’re also relying on other teams to lose at this point.

Which will happen with teams in the congested table playing each other or losing form or besieged by injuries.

and the mushrooms

Assuming Canberra go and win tonight, the table will look like:

8. Dolphins - 24
9. Raiders - 24
10. Dragons - 24
11. Warriors - 21

Dolphins (H) v Roosters
Bulldogs (H) v Raiders
Storm (H) v Dragons

Very real chance if we beat Eels, all three above us could lose and we are equal on wins with the teams above.

 

[Tragic]

I believe. Kinda.

 

[Worried2Death]

I believe. Kinda.

I'm sensing a shift in the Force, soon there'll be more believers than Un-Believers. It's not a religion, it's a movement.

I'm still in the heartbreak camp but have posted about how it will get better before it gets worse.

I think we will find ourselves inside the 8 within the next few weeks. One loss though will catapult us out.

There is also the very real possibility that we go to Cronulla knowing a win and we are in.

I need not tell anyone how that movie ends....

Then we lose to parra

Knights might be being slept on by many. Will probably lose vs the Panthers next weekend but could repeat last season & go on a late run

Wait until I start saying we're going on to win 10 in a row, breaking the club streak and powering away in the grand final ....

And the giant killing Titans.

1 point behind us but won 4 of the last 5 including wins over Dolphins, Sharks and us.

Draw: Broncos, Sharks, Dragons, Roosters, Knights, Panthers.

Long shot but on form…

When Des gave them a spray at half time they came out a different side in that second half.

I don't see it.

Not with the discontent and shoulder tap murmourings.

I would not be prepared to put money on them in any game other than Tigers.

 

[Defence]

Seven teams are all but locked in for the eight now.
Of the teams fighting over the last spot these are the current odds.

5 to 1 is a bit better than we deserve - that dolphins game aye - that’s the big one - why I think they should play Shaun this week might be able to beat the eels even if he’s rusty AF gives him a run up.

Broncos continued collapse would be great but their draw is easier than ours

 

[CWC]

In a wild way we might still make it by just beating the Eels, Dolphins and Bulldogs

Teams around each other either slug it out directly or play top 3 teams

But those 3 games mentioned are must wins for us

 

[Falcon]

There is a very big possibility we sit in 8th spot if we beat the Eels and Dolphins. With other teams in and art d us playing each other.
Then we face the moment of truth, Manly, Bulldogs, Sharks, .. but by then we are in control of our own destiny and not reliant on other results.
