I believe we'd have a worse percentage but no doubt there are better mathematicians who can make those calculations.
Is an 8 point loss the maximum we can afford?

9 point loss it's level F/A, anything less we're 2nd, anything more we'll be 3rd/4th.
If it is 9 though, I can only think of 2 scenarios:
1\. We get second on more points scored
2\. They get in front on a better head to head (Both win 1, but they have a better F/A in our matches)

Murdoch missed Sunday's game with an ankle injury and needs a shoulder reconstruction as well. He won't get a go this year.

I think you will find we have a 18 point buffer now, that means if we lose we can only lose by a max of nine points,because with for against points every point they win by has a two point swing–ie they get one point and we lose a point. Anyway lets hope we win and win well and rap up 2nd position

Thanks Bazz - as I suspected my maths was a bit wonky. It'd be interesting if are down by 10 close to fulltime - do you take a field goal or penalty?

Agreed.
And with tonight's result, we really must win to seal 2nd place. The Panthers play the Sharks at Penrith so really should win. A narrow loss (9 points or less) would see us finish third, and a bigger loss 4th.
Everything is against us this week - short turnaround, and lots of injuries. The only thing I can see going for us is everyone will right us and tip the Titans. Hope we can somehow pull together and manufacture a win. It can be as ugly as all hell as far as i'm concerned.
I'm just happy that Wests can't fall out of the Top 4\. Be it 2nd, 3rd or 4th, a Home Final is imperative and has been achieved. The Tigers can still have the opportunity to have the luxury of a week off if they are one of the top 2 highest ranking winners. It all depends on other results going in the club's favour. At present, the prospect of a week of looks and sounds great due to the mini injury crisis that has struck Wests. However, momentum is a wonderful thing and a week off isn't always beneficial. I guess there's two views and perspectives on both side's of this equation.
With injuries affecting the side's healthiest Top 17, my line up would be as follows;
1). Brown
2).Tuqiri
3). Ayshford
4). Daniela
5). Ryan
6). Marshall
7). Lui
8). Payten
9). Farah
10). Galloway
11). Dwyer
12). Flanagan
13). Heighnington
Interchange:
14). Fifita
15). Moors
16). Al Schirnack
17). Akeripa

No chance. He needs a shoulder reconstruction as it is and is getting over an ankle injury. He won't be risked in this game.

Fizty will be the 17 for sure. He has been 18th man every match.
