Only in that match head to head stats part, not in the ladder or games scores this year itself. It isnt affecting the ladder.

The ladder you start with is correct at the moment.

6/8 from here. Maybe you dont know yet, but sharks had a 14-14 draw tonight with rooters

I tried to be as honest as possible, I put us to drop 2 games before the finals (against Manly in Round 20, and the Broncos in Round 23)....However, we may only just drop one of those two games. Even though winning our next 8 games straight (which would make a total of 12 in a row, would be excellent, some may argue its best to drop one leading into the finals as well).

1. Storm 40 pts
2. Bulldogs 38 pts
3. Rabbitohs 36 pts
4. Broncos 36 pts
5. Sea Eagles 36 pts
6. Sharks 35 pts
7. Warriors 34 pts
8. Cowboys 32 pts

Sounds about right.

I realised later that i picked us to win all the remaining games which is perhaps a little biased. Manly will be a danger game but at the time i picked us to beat them, i thought we would be pumped to beat them coz of our 2 point loss to them last time. Broncos we have at ANZ and the rest of the games we really should win if we are contenders.

Wow. I can't recall the last time a game ended in a draw. Seems like a pretty rare occurrence these days.

Basing on an average score of 24 - 12 for a win, and 30-6 for a team that should have a big win.

1. 42 Dogs
2. 42 Storm
3. 38 Broncos
4. 37 Sharks
5. 36 Rabbitohs
6. 32 Cowboys
7. 30 Warriors
8. 30 Sea Eagles

QUALI FINALS

GRAND FINAL

I think the battle for bottom 8 is going to cause some upsets. In particular for sides like Manly who, whilst playing well, are leaking points when they clock off early. Injuries are also creeping into their side causing problems.

I expect Rabbitohs, Warriors and Sharks to really push into the finals. Sea Eagles will make the 8, but will shine in the finals with their experience. Storm are going to cop another loss or two I feel. Bulldogs I honestly feel can will all remaining games, given they seem to lift when required, so you can't expect that a lacking first half means they are playing badly.

Broncos are still a fairly young side, and can be found out by good side and skilled coach.

 

[Trendsetter]

Can't see NQ making the 8
7.NZ, 8.Tigers, 9.NQ
It'll be close though, wouldn't be surprised if it's only a 2point diff between 8 & 9..

 

[Kiraz Crazy]

Awkward.. im expecting canberra to somehow get 8th place..

 

[Moedogg]

Cowboys, raiders, warriors seem to be our bogey teams in recent years, I'm kinda scared we might slip against either the cowboys or raiders but win all other remaining games...

lol best call i have read all year

 

[Dognacious]

Its pointless doing this as everyone is to biased towards the bulldogs

To be expected but not unrealistic to have us finish 1 or 2 considering where we are now and our draw

 

[Özil]

Melbourne 42pts
Manly 38
Us 36
Brisbane 36
-----------------
Sharks 33
SouFFS 32
Balmain 30
Warriors 28

Going off Mr I's and Fagdatis's predictions, there is a lot of bias and wishful thinking there
