The Rorters are not as invincible as some people think. Lots of kinks in their defence. We exposed them last week and a shitty Knights side put 22 points on them today. They are very beatable with a well executed game plan.
As long as we win most of remaining matches I think our style of play ( boring I know) is suited to semi final football.
Nobody will really want to any us in the semi's.

there is no way the NRL will allow the Rabbits to drop out of the 4. Too much $$$$ at stake
Our club makes more money them for sure easily yet we get no special treatment for the NRL, the NRL take our clubs power for granted lol

You need to hold them out early that the problem, their attack is way too strong early on but fades out you can't let them get too far ahead as seen with both of their last games.

While this might be true, i don't think the NRL fears the 'Dogs at all, we don't have a wealthy backer that has influence in more than just the NRL. Souths and the Roosters both have very influential people leading them, if the 'Dogs had someone of Politis's calibre at the helm you'll find we'd get a lot more decisions go our way. World isn't a fair place and never will be

Like those wealthy backers want to spend anymore money on the NRL then they are indoing so on their clubs only though lol, I bet they only spend the minimum to keep the club running and fees needed to the NRL while if we were to leave the NRL they would notice how much money, crowd numbers, hype, media hype and what ever brings attention to the NRL/game to the wider public in Australia lol

Yeah but they also scored 38 points in both matches and one of those was with their half back rested. It doesn't matter how many you concede as long as you score more than your opposition.

Please!!!!The conspiracy theory bullshit is running thin. The Rabbits will lose all 4 remaining games and be on verge of dropping out of the 8. They were awful against Manly. They peaked in May and since then have struggled for consistency. They look impotent in attack and soft in defence.

I hope you're right. I'm flying up from Melbourne for the Rabbits game, and I want a different outcome to the last infamous Rabbits game I attended.

We could have easily made the top 4. Cant believe how badly we shot ourselves in the foot.

I just ran the ladder predictor. Grand Final is Bulldogs 18 - Cowboys 16. This must be accurate 'cause I haven't had a single prediction wrong for at least 5 minutes now.

Don't we all!! Should be very interesting all round.

I reckon we will have a big proportion of the crowd in blue and white even though it is Souff's home game. I for one am looking forward to it. Don't be surprised if Mr G Sutton is the referee either, the NRL is just so predictable. Lol.

Lol. Maybe we should get that Octopus to do the predictions.

Come on did anyone seriously believe Raiders would make the 8? They have flopped big time against the Tigers

We could wrap up a spot in the 8, with two rounds to go. Just depends on the results really.

Honestly, we shouldn't even bother keeping track of other teams and I hope the teams doesn't either. This just fosters for complacency and it's the last thing we want. We should just go in and win all our remaining games.

Hopefully we finish 6 or 7 along with the Sharks.

Melbourne cruised past Sharks this evening so 4 & 5 will be Souths & Melb or vice versa
