I don't want us to be known as the 2015 Wooden spoon puppets… Never,ever,ever. 😛ray:

No one remembers who came 13th , 14th or 15th but everyone remembers who got the spoon !!

So much for the glory bound rounds !!

The Run Home for Tigers, Knights and Titans-

Tigers:
Sharks (A)
Warriors (H)
Dragons (A)

Knights:
Storm (A)
Bulldogs (H)
Panthers (A)

Titans:
Bulldogs (A)
Raiders (H)
Dragons (H)
Cowboys (A)

Could still be anyone's from here. That last home game against the Warriors a must win for Tigers to avoid it.
 
The good thing for us is we have far and away the best points differential of the current bottom 4 teams, so if we end up equal last at the end of the season, we probably won't get the spoon. In any case, I reckon the spoon will go to the Titans outright.
 
Titans are arguably the worst team of the bottom 3 - Knights aren't that bad for all their struggles to win, they put it to the Roosters quite well for a period last week.

I can't see Titans jagging another win from here?

We'd have to be decent odds to beat any of Sharks, Warriors and Dragons. I am totally not sold on Dragons - put your money on us to end their season if it's still alive by then.

Warriors will be without Johnson

If the stories going round are true Fifitas are gone for the season

Newcastle lost Mullen for the season

Have faith

Relying on other teams self-imploding doesn't inspire confidence

We are about to explode

Can't you all feel it in your bones

It was certainly a loud bang yesterday when they exploded out of the blocks. Alas, once again they were reminded that a game goes for 80 mins.

For/against points may save wests tigers from getting the wooden spoon.
So lets hope the defense doesn't leak massive points in the remaining games.

I don't know about that, Willow. The Sharks are on a roll and playing very well. I don't think the loss of the Fafitas will be that much of a blow, tbh - they have plenty of cover in the forwards. Flanagan has them playing for each other and the talent in their roster is finally starting to gel.

The Warriors, on the other hand, are there for us to take and possibly Saints as well, if they're out of contention by then. I've never seen a team go from real contenders to just plain hopeless so fast, since Johnston was injured. I really can't see the Warriors winning another game. Why on earth I tipped them to beat Penrith, I'll never know! I guess I thought Penrith were just as bad :brick:

Could be a good bet… 5 day turrnaround for them after a tough game against the storm... With a few key returns for us hopefully.
Woods is a big????

That's it, even if they beat the storm, it will be a physical game. We have a very good record at Shark Park and Taupau and Lawrence back helps our forward pack. Hopefully Woods is good to go.
 
Yes the WT and both Wests and Balmain have good history against Cronulla but somehow Cronulla look like their heading close to a comp this year or next.

Tapau is back but doubt Woods and possibly Farah will play.
Hopefully we beat NZ and that will do.

Was very disappointed with loss os Saturday. We needed 3 on row to prove we are on up but I know there were injury reasons but were not working teams over enough in attack to wear them down and become passengers in SH.
A real worrying sign of a bottom of table team.
 
We never beat teams that we should, ever.

So I think the warriors will beat us.

Now, as for Sharks and dragons?

After Saturday, I am not expecting any more wins this year. That Game was the low point of the season form me.
