Obviously this is based on the competitions current form:
Storm (h) - win. Melbourne have been snuffed by Canberra at home and came close to losing against Cronulla at home. Shown to be beatable by the easybeats and no reason why we can't beat them either permitting we take them on with the right mentality.
Bulldogs (h) - win. They seem to be in a rut at the moment, however Hodkinson will be back from suspension against us this game and as usual the Ennis V Farah debate will flare up in the media. Farah will need to stick to the formula he has last week and not overplay his hand and let the whole team do the talking for him. It will be hard to gauge the Bulldogs on this weekends effort's since Idris, Goodwin and Hodkinson are all missing.
Bye - win.
Eels (a) - win. Parramatta are a shambles, with Robson looking set to have secured his future, there's no need for him to play like it's on the line and will really depend on whether Hayne shows up or not. Quick line speed and meeting the ball carrier in a tight straight formation should nullify Hayne.
Cowboys (a) - win. Cowboys are looking to be a side that peaked early on in the piece and may go on to lose a few games that they shouldn't. Given the way we're playing at the moment, I'd be inclined to say we'll be one of them.
Roosters (h) - win. Will really depend on Carney hitting form for them. They appear to be completely directionless when he's not firing as he is their only genuine playmaker.
Sea Eagles (a) - win. We have a reasonable record against Manly in recent years and we should be expecting Tuqiri (and hopefully Payten and Lawrence) back around then, so a full strength left edge would be fantastic.
Dragons (h) - lose. If at full strength, we will be hard pressed beating them. Gave them a nasty shock in our last game by chasing them down and nearly snatching it at the death, but scoring first and second is a priority to get the Dragons on the backfoot.
Panthers (a) - win. Penriff are a much more lacklustre side this year and we should be able to get the chocolates if we wrap up their big men in defence.
Eels (h) - win. See above.
Titans (h) - win. Should be looking to put a cricket score on these guys to make up for the embarrassment at Skilled Park. Got lucky against the Shellharbour Dragons last week, but I think the Bunnies will bring them back to Earth this week.
Sharks (a) - win. Got a good record against the Gummies, should be an easy win, even easier if Gallen is out suspended/injured. We should make a meal out of their bog slow fringes.
