Back to the Top of the Ladder in Two Weeks
Just looking at the ladder after this round, and if the following happens, the Storm will back where it belongs: AT THE TOP
If, ahem, I mean WHEN the Storm pummels the Sharks at the Graveyard next week, and when the Broncos give the Sea Eagles a going over in Brisbane, the Storm will shoot up from 6th to 2nd; from 8 points to 10, and Manly will have 12. (Owing to our vastly superior points difference)
The following week we'll have a bye, and the Eagles host the Tigers. At this point, I'd tip the Seagulls at home, but the Tigers have pulled off some magic lately and I'll be happy to cheer them on, on that weekend.
I can't wait for the Seagulls to sink back to where they belong...
GO STORM!!!

Where is the option to vote "I highly doubt it but maybe in three weeks?"
As nice as it would be to see the Storm back on top I can't see many teams beating Manly at Brookvale this year and I especially wouldn't be counting on the Tigers winning there.
Perhaps if you can wait that extra week the Dogs might do you a favour ... on second thoughts we only just beat Manly last year when we were at full strength and they were crap.
Also that would require a win at Aussie Stadium from the Storm and that seems to be a lot easier said than done.

i hope the team isnt thinking this far ahead...we need to beat sharks for sure...coz then we got the bye so thats 6 pts(raiders,sharks, bye)then 2 home games vs an under strenghted doggies and a dragons team...so i think we can very well be up the top in the coming weeks..

I'd just like to see some CCC
Consistentcy
Continuity
Commitment
And no performance backlash/injury problems due to the rep season.
And I vote option 3 - it makes more sense than the others

I doubt they're worried about being top of the table in 2 weeks. It won't happen anyway. Brisbane will beat the Dogs in 2 weeks, so regardless of who wins between Manly and Brisbane, there will be at least 1 team above us still. And the Cowboys will smash the Roosters and Eels and still be above us too.
Glory, Glory to South Sydney!
No reason why they can't. Though shjarks will be hard to beat and kimmorly always performs againest the storm.
