The run home to finals '26

[TheGreenWookie]

A win today against the Dolphins would have made this assignment a lot easier. These are wishful predictions for our last 10 games. I think getting to 14 wins will be just that little bit too far.

Rd 17 knights away (AD & AT return) - W
Rd 18 dragons away - W (origin)
Rd 19 wahs home (maybe Sam F. return, back end of origin) - L
Rd 20 dogs away (Sam F. back) - W
Rd 21 raiders away - W
Rd 22 eels home - W
Rd 23 bye
Rd 24 dragons home - W
Rd 25 roosters away - L
Rd 26 cowboys away - L
Rd 27 panthers away - L (maybe rested W?)

I reckon roosters and cows could be gettable, and panthers if they rest players

We got to win 14 games now ?

Good luck

I don't think our for/against will be enough with 13 wins. Mid table is log jammed up

Hate to say this , but our season is over , injuries have crippled us .
But I really hope the club take on board the fact is we don’t have players who can step up to 1st grade.
We really need to strengthen the backrow , with experience players not kids

I think the Storm are about to go on a run. Not as contenders, but I can see them making the 8. So that will add a wrinkle to our fortunes.

Yeah Storm, even Dogs are starting to play better. Saints also, though no hope of finals could still be nuisance value for teams aspiring to be in the top 8.

Sadly I think we’re done, the log jam for the 8 is too much, our F/A is shit and we just have too many injuries to cope. It would take a major miracle for us to make it and a real dip in form from some of the other teams near us on the ladder.

Would you agree that we need 32pts G, taking into consideration our F/A, that's 6 wins from 10 games, with the constant stream of injuries it's too hard and becoming a dream.

At this stage the dreaded "Mathematically Possible" is looming in the distance and becoming larger every week.I honestly feel we will fail yet again,undoubtedly our injuries will have played a major part in our demise BUT until we start getting a winning percentage from our home matches we will never succeed.
2027 will be an even more difficult year for us unless we rectify our home win percentage (not having the old girl to inflate our winning ratio will only make it worse).
Start winning at our home grounds and many of our problems will evaporate or become easier to manage.To be honest it would also help if all of our games had the reggies playing before first grade to develop club spirit but we all know the Ludites and Trogladites who run our club will not allow that.
As always i live in hope even if it is divorced from reality.
Sorry for the long rant.

The truth hurts, rant is honest and justified jad.

"but we all know the Ludites and Trogladites who run our club will not allow that"
On the damn money... Its a constant migraine that holds this club back from its true potential.

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Injuries, roster depth and players giving up will cost us this season.

We can live in hope of some players coming back and a magical turn around but I don’t see it as we enter the hardest part of our draw to end the season.

Our thumpings have cost us big time on F&A which means we have to win an extra game.

 

[innsaneink]

I think 5 wins

Canberra is the big one, we have a poor record

After the way they were treated at Leichhardt in April...we aint winning down there in Canberra

What was that all about some long held grudge from 89?

We heard nothing like that last week towards the Titans

absolutely 89 still have ptsd from it

Think raiders are not going as well as newcastle though hence that is our target game fingers crossed

 

[Telltails]

I can't see us making it. Next week's assignment is going to be extremely difficult and it seems every week we lose another player - our pack is not top eight quality no matter how hard they toil. No easy games and some squads below us have potential to click that havnt at this point - Canberra Brisbane and dare I say it the Bulldogs.
Might be imagining it but the six agains seem to have been less prevalent in the last two weeks which evens the playing field for teams like Melbourne and the Bulldogs who have struggled.
