Considering we were pre-season favourites and coming off successive top 4 finishes scraping into the 8 in the last round of the season isn't something to be that proud of. Can you honestly say that after today we deserve to be anywhere near the finals? i know i can't.
@stryker said:Not always tig prmz…we have had some flukey wins this year where the better side lost. Roosters have finished below us and they have proven twice this year (again) that beating us is easy. I dont begrudge the Raiders their chance as they have played some poor footy this year yet have knocked off full strength top 4 sides away from home.
Some of the sides that will miss out deserve to and some are unlucky to. We fall into the first category.

@tig_prmz said:that's the keyword there "some".. as i said previously, the ladder involves 26 rounds.. we've got some flukey wins, so have canberra, so have brisbane and so have bulldogs. the ladder is the MOST reliable indication of whether we deserve to be there or not.
@RMS said:Hmm, whilst a lot of people are saying we don't deserve to be in the finals, if this is the case then neither do Canberra - awful at times, Brisbane falling apart in the back half of the year.
Brisbane lose and we win then we are in the 8.
So if things happen our way and we make 8th, then we deserve to be there as much as the other teams.
Do I think it will happen? - Highly unlikely.
Will I cheering them on all the same? Hell yes.
X 2.
Really what's it matter if we deserve to be there or not. 8 teams make the finals and over the years plenty of teams have scrapped into the 8 having a below average season. I think the problem is we all had high hopes for this team and they should be a top 4 side. The fact we are on the cusp of missing out is disappointing to say the least. Had the season started with as $15 wooden spoons favorites and us all thinking that's about where we'd finish then I'm sure we'd be happy sitting where we are going into the last round. With a chance of making the 8.
I'm really don't rate to raiders, there is a possibility of young Williams being out. This in kind and the fact a lackluster warriors outfit will be fired up to finish this one on high I see them winning by 10-14.
Tigers getting home over the storm by 8 and Brisbane beating the panthers.

Canberra playing warriors who have just dropped Shaun Johnson and benched Maloney. Ummm I'd say Canberra in a cricket score.

Brisbane have not won in 6 weeks, Penrith could conceivably knock them off.

Some may suggest that perhaps my slightly soiled pair of black, white and orange Pat Hundy's are cutting the oxygen off from reaching my already addled brain ... But what can I tell you, I'm feeling dangerously upbeat about the upcoming weekends round of running wrestling.
