Well its a lot closer this year so whats the money on the minor premiership for a third year?
I am 50/50, on the plus side we are playing well at the moment with minimal injury list but on the down side its so damn tight one game will decide it. I dont think we will win next week thanks to the origin commitments, but if you look at the draw all the top sides are against each other in the last 10 games so its going to open things up. Looking at the roosters today agaist the knights i dont rate them, but Manly still seem to be the team that noone rates but they keep on winning.

Too hard to say at the moment, I'm just wanting top 2 so we can get 2 home finals again, assuming results go our way of course!
Storming our way to glory!

There doesn't seem to be a stand out team this year.
If the Storm are minor Premiers again this year they'll have to take charge fo their own destiny. Other teams may or may not falll over.
I'm still waiting for the Roosters to hit their straps.

The Roosters have hit their straps IMO. They are the danger. Manly I have only seen a few games so haven't really got a full guage on their form. Haven't been scared by the games I have seen of them though!
The Sharks will drop away I think. Particularly if Bird is out long term

The Roosters have beaten us the last 2 times we played them, never looked like winning in any of those either.
Broncos and Titans, can trouble us but unlikely to progress further than us,
Eagles can't be underestimated, im starting to think Storm and Manly again.

After the titans losing and picking up a heap of injuries i think we can write them off as serious contenders for top 2 - especially as they play roosters and manly in the next 3 games.
Manly have conceded the same points as us but near a third of our points have come in the two origin weakened sides, so all things being equal i think we can say we have the best defense, we have beaten the eagles well and our attack is firing...so good signs. The next 4 weeks will clear it up

Well after 3 losses during origin we're only 1 off the lead!
Manly will be hard to catch though, I think the boys have 1 maybe 2 more losses before the finals.
Roosters, although they're really consistent, they are capable of being beaten by the lesser sides in the competition but at the same time can beat Melbourne and Manly.
In saying all this, we havent really lost a game since round 3.

I think we can do it there is no one that scares me like we use to have, eg Bulldogs or the boogieman, I think we have the fear factor now and teams have to try and change game plans for us which is good....I have faith in the team and staff they will do the best they can and we will support them the best we can no doubt.
I am back again.

According to an article on the NRL site and The Sydeny Herald we can not win the minor premiershio again. Because we are two points behind and have a big points differnce to Manly, we would have to win two more games than Manly to overtake them on the ladder.
