Took the below info from the Round 10 thread pre-game... Thought I would check how we have gone.
The Rabbitohs game is shaping as our last real test against a Premiership contender ahead of Finals - though they will be without Latrel Mitchell who was injured on the weekend. The Rabbitohs have really hit a purplr patch of form over the past couple of weeks, although I always knew that they would walk over the Eels who have been sh*t.
----------
Just had a look at the schedule for the rest of the year. To me it can be logically chunked up into phases.
The 'home' stretch against lower ranked teams
Rd 10 - Titans - Sunshine Coast WON by 36
Rd 11 - Broncos - Suncorp WON by 38
Rd 12 - Knights - Sunshine Coast WON by 10
Rd 13 - Bulldogs - Sunshine Coast WON by 31
The tough, mostly away games against higher ranked teams
Rd 14 - Roosters - Away SCG WON by 18
Rd 15 - Eels - Away Bankwest LOST by 14
Rd 16 - Sea Eagles - Home Sunshine Coast
Rd 17 - Rabbitohs - Away ANZ
The relatively easy run home
Rd 18 - Cowboys - Home TBD
Rd 19 - Tigers - Home TBD
Rd 20 - Dragons - Away TBD

It's weird - in a way, the Rabbitohs have done the Storm a favour but in a way they also haven't.yourhero wrote: ↑Fri Aug 28, 2020 8:43 am Took the below info from the Round 10 thread pre-game... Thought I would check how we have gone.

Should the Eels drop a second game (they still have to play the Panthers on the road) on the run home and the Roosters win all of theirs and assuming the Storm win all but one game going into the finals (or even win all of them) then it's likely week one will be the Storm vs the Roosters in Queensland.
I'm not sure about everyone else here - but I'd much rather be playing the Eels for a grand final qualifier over the Roosters. I also think if the Roosters finish fourth the Panthers will beat them in week one.
