Bulldogs V Panthers ***Spoilers***

[Jazza]

Most people have been saying we will finish top 2 if we lose by a small margin next week.

Just looking at the ladder, thats not exactly the case.

If Penrith beat the Dogs on Monday night, then they will be 2 pts behind us with a much better f/a (Tigers = +37, Penrith = +112), with Penrith playing the Sharks in rd 26.

That means even if we lose by a small margin next week, Penrith are a very likely chance of stealing 2nd spot from us.

As it stands today:

Team Played W L Pts F/A
2\. Tigers 23 15 8 34 +37
3\. Titans 23 14 9 32 +19
4\. Panthers 22 13 9 30 +112

Fixtures:
Panthers vs Bulldogs

Tigers vs Titans
Panthers vs Sharks

The Bulldogs wont be an easy win for them. Players retiring and leaving. And there are is always a big chance that when an upset result occurs this year, its on a Monday night.

There is also no guarantee that they’ll beat the Sharks either.

The way I see it whether we come 2nd or 3rd all comes down to tommorow night, as I think we will get beaten next week but not by more then 26 points. GO THE DOGGIES!!

The Sharks have a good team as we found out a few rounds ago and the titans found out this weekend

we are only 18 ahead of the gold coast on for and against which means if gold coast win by more than nine they will finish on top of us.

please bulldogs win tomorrwo but please lose to manyl!!! I do not want to play my most hated team the stupid faders for the finals!!!! I hate them so much that Id have to much anger for that semi final game, so Im not so sure I want to finish 2nd of thats the case!

Hopefully Canterbury Bankstown beat Penrith tommorow night. I'm thinking of going to the game tommorow. Members of any NRL football club get in for free.

 

[Golden]

question who do we prefer to play??? do we prefer to play Manly or the raiders if we finish 2nd? id prefer Manly! and if we finish 3rd warriors or roosters?? Roosters have given us problems this year

 

[cunno]

I'd prefer to play the raiders or warriors.

I Cant agree with the title of this Thread no matter the advantage ….

 

[Geo]

Problem solved spartan…

 

[cunno]

the only time this year I've hoped the doggiessss win

 

[Marshall_magic]

Hope Penrith win. We'll beat the Titans next week, so this game is irrelevent.

 

[alien]

I can't believe I am saying this but c'mon Canterbury Bankstown!

 

[alien]

6-0 to the Bulldogs after 6 minutes.

 

[Icon]

16 nil after 16 min - unbelievable

 

[Geo]

**GO DOOOOOOOGGGGGGGIIIIIEEEEESSSSSSS**

Wow seems all the top 8 sides get the hippie hippiee shakes come finals time …pressure funny thing.....

Oh 16 nil Dogs 15min gone....Penrith completed 1 from 4.... :unamused:

Hold on here come the soft penalties.... :laughing:

 

[alien]

I thought the Dogs would be in with a chance with Patten and Noddy retiring. I knew they'd be switched on. This is good for the Wests Tigers if we end up losing next week. If we end up losing by less than 9 and the Bulldogs do end up winning we will finish in 2nd spot! :slight_smile:

P.s. I am not saying that we will lose next week.

 

[Tigerdave]

can't believe the score….

lots of penalties being handed over to the panthers though now
