Top 8

Well at least our F/A won't get any worse this week.
 
My footy tips were based around what was best for the WT's

Fingers crossed , but the Bulldogs loss made it a bridge too far in my opinion

The J curve has us at less than 20 % , I reckon that is pretty close to the mark

Lol i like the way you think..
I guess there are 3 positives then
- 2 points
- Not further ruining points differential
- Recovery for our SOO reps
 
I'd have thought we'd want the Titans to beat the Dragons. It would get us two points out, playing them next week with a chance to overtake them.
 
One thing for certain is we cant rely on anyone else or their results to make the top 8
We MUST win all our games for any of the mathematical calculations to come into play..

In recent times i have seen us play ourselves out of the top 8 and shoot ourselves in the foot

Yeh, I agree we should be hoping Titans win instead of the dragons being 4 points ahead we'd rather be two points behind of the Titans and Dragons and leapfrog the dragons if we beat them and hope Parra beat Titans in the following week.
 
Titans and Dragons are both in front of us, and among the teams we want to overtake. Looking at their respective runs home (and treating the Eels as if they were 6th), they play:
Teams 1-4: T - 2 ; D - 2
Teams 5-8: T - 2 ; D - 2
Teams 9-12: T - 3 ; D - 2
Teams 13-16: T - 1 ; D - 2

So there is almost nothing between them. We also still have to play them both once.

To me, the result doesn't make a huge difference in us making the finals. Our own performances (especially in the games against them) are far more important!
