The run home to finals '26
- Thread starter TheGreenWookie
- Start date
The Dolphins current 7 game streak reminds me more and more of ours in 05
Yep
They also can score tries from anywhere on the park which brings back good memories of 2005.

Knights , Dragons , Eels , Raiders , Dragons , dogs , all winnable
Add Bye , we good to play finals , just need to finish off games ,Finn’s game was there and needed to be rammed home , but we just fell off , AD back can help this as we looked lost in parts close to the line in attack just no strike close in , anyways with injuries we have had ours time fo others to get a few as we build our run
Top 8 by a zig zag paper

There's a Code Sports headline talking about Samuella possibly coming back early but it's behind a bloody paywall!!
NRL Late Mail Round 17: Alex Twal trains with rehab group, Samuela Fainu eyes early return
Wests Tigers forward Alex Twal still has plenty of boxes to tick despite being named to start for Sunday’s match against the Newcastle Knights.Wests Tigers back-rower Samuela Fainu is on track for an early return after originally being ruled out until round 22.
Fainu is on track to potentially return next week against the Dragons after requiring foot surgery following the club’s 52-10 loss to the Sharks.
One of the Tigers’ stand outs for the year, Fainu’s recovery has tracked better than initially expected, providing the club with a huge boost for the back end of the year and their hopes of breaking their 15-year finals drought.
Fainu was seen at training on Wednesday commencing his running and change of direction work with the rehab group, which also included Alex Twal.
Twal suffered a low grade MCL tear against Canterbury in round 13, only commencing running this weekend.
The 29-year-old has been mostly restricted to off-feet conditioning since the game last month, with the Tigers expected to give him every chance to prove his fitness for Sunday’s game against the Knights.

Geez I would love to see that again BWG.
It would be just about a miracle.

For mine the consistency is just not there for us to make the finals. Too many players out with injuries and more importantly, too many players look like they are playing injured.

I think we were about $101 at that point to win the premiership. We are currently $81. Spooky lol

And no point in rushing him back if he’s not ready !

A lot will depend on the run home of the teams around us.
Storm has a pretty awful run- Manly twice, Souths, Sharks, Roosters, Penrith & the Broncos in Qld.
Souths get Panthers, Knights, Storm, Sharks, Roosters & Warriors.
Sharks get Broncos & Dolphins away in a row, Knights, Manly, Souths & the Storm.
Sea Eagles get the Storm twice, Knights, Cowboys, Sharks, Dolphins & Warriors.
Knights get Dolphins, Sharks, Roosters, Souths, Broncos & Raiders away, Manly & Warriors
These teams are all going to steal points off each other, or some are just going to go on a run either up or down.
Cowboys could be the team to watch- Penrith, Bye, Manly, Dolphins away...Broncos & Roosters in NQ, Titans, Eels, Bye, Tigers & Raiders in NQ...I can see them picking up 12-14 points straight at the end of the year. If they can beat Manly, Penrith or Dolphins...be interesting to see where they finish.

At this point, "There's always next year" isn't a phrase anymore. It is a legally binding contract we all sign at birth. And the jersey has been DNA tested, confirmed 100% heartbreak....
Unfortunately other clubs, identify that they have a dud coach and do something about it, that mob today were spooners, ripped the Adam obrien bandaid off, manly did the same thing, we upgraded our Muppet

Season is cooked. Yesterday hurt more than the 40+ hidings we copped within the last 6 weeks. Normally I consume all the post game media (presser, podcasts) but I couldn't bothered, far too depressing to face the reality.
I was trying to pick a 2nd team to follow for the rest of the season but almost every team is a reminder of how bleak we are.
A big thank you to the forum and all the posters for once again providing more entertainment than our club.

After that sloppy effort yesterday I think we are done for this year , we just don’t look anything like we did when at full strength early on , injuries def have played a huge part in our results , but our coach needs to wear some weight , his bench decisions are not very good and again yesterday was proof , Geyer was poor and Benji kept him on , but injuries for me are the killers , we miss both Sam F and KPP badly on those edges , both are scoring runners of the ball , API looks worn out and should have been replaced with Lanyon yesterday , it could have made the difference , May Snr Benji is playing him to long start and play 25/30 then off and back on with 20 or so to go , Tiny should have had his surgery instead of playing busted , Macca not up to first grade yet and also playing busted , Toa playing busted , Skelton getting a game hear and there , guys always has a go and does those dirty hit ups , anyways we got 2 days t find a few before June 30 as we need them badly ,
