Next 6 games we play
Storm
Souths x 2
Roosters
Cowboys and Raiders

What is sucess ? For mine if we can win 3 of those 6 then we set ourselves up for a great chance for finals and even 2 wins would be good given we dont play the big 3 again.

We have a gr8 run home after thay with all winnable games

What does everyone else see as a good result

Tough games. I’d be stoked if we could win half those games. With our roster that would be an achievement. We are definitely a chance of doing that.

Would be a great result if we get three wins. We should be able to beat the Cowboys and Roosters (they will depleted due to origin), and maybe snag another.
 
I reckon we will be the Rabbitohs once, Cowboys and the Raiders. I'd be pretty happy with that. The run home after that - we could and should be undefeated tbh
 
Victorious against the grubbitohs (once), the bye, cowboys and Chooks. Hope we play the Faiders not the Raiders.
 
if we win 3 out of the next 6 games, i will be happy

any more than that is great

of course we should be going into ever match expecting to be victorious
 
6 from 6..nothing less..

If you go in thinking it's acceptable to lose you have already lost..
 
I want to win them all.

If I am being realistic to win half them will still be acceptable I think. That being said if we knock off Melbourne and Souths, we should be by that logic able to win every game.
 
3/6 would be a pass mark and anything more than that would be a good result. Anything less than 3 and we'd end up with more losses than wins and that's a bad place to be given we don't tend to go on great winning streaks...
 
@Geo - you like to make it tough don't you. I'd love to get 6 from 6 but I'll be happy with any wins that we get. I suppose we have to try and jag at least 2 wins to give ourselves a chance to make the 8.
 
I would say 6/6 but realistically, I want us to go 3/6 at minimum. And one of them putting 30+ on the Raiders would be lovely.

3 Would be great
 
First and foremost we need to compete - no more games like the Eels and to a lesser extent the chooks - If we don't turn up mentally then we're gone before the ball is kicked. Need to be able to compete to give yourself any chance.
 
@boonboon we win none ..... and we can start planning for next year.
Yes tough draw and if we can win 3 we should take it and run! Will need a bit of luck with that!
 
As many wins as possible.

16 rounds left, assuming we need 30pts to make the top 8. So we need to win 10 from 16. That’s a tough ask but crazier things have happened.
 
@bythebeardofzeus 8 more wins from the final 15 games will almost definitely get us there this year. There is one less round/bye this year so 28 will almost definitely be enough (ie 13 wins from 25 games).

We are on 10 points already, plus a bye to come (12), plus 16 points from 8 wins gives us the 28.

What would be helpful is if the top 3 or 4 teams keep beating the mid-table teams which are challenging us for a spot in the 8 like the Dragons, Knights, Manly, Raiders etc. If that happens, the cutoff for the 8 would likely be 25 or 26 ladder points.
 
3 from 6 would still have us in a reasonably good position. More would be great and a bonus in my eyes.

Most importantly, we can’t have a long string of losses. Every year going back to 2011 the club has lost at least 4 games in a row. Most years it’s been 5 or 6 losses on the trot. You can’t go on a string of losses like that and expect to play finals footy unless you have a very good squad that can click suddenly and also go on a run.
 
Three out of six would be unbelievable but I would even take two. With SOO around the corner nothing is impossible. Anyway Thursday nights game should give us a pretty good gauge how the next 6 weeks will pan out
 
3 out of 6 would be great but the main concern for me is if we lose a game we need to stay close and not get flogged.. We cannot afford another 40+ pt lose as its just too hard to make up.. Fingers crossed but the next 6 weeks determines our season for me..
 
Yeah 3/6 sounds like a good result

Canberra have injuries everywhere

I guess the talk of Mbye getting the 14 jersey for Qld if DCE isn't fit might have an impact on us
