The Round 20 game against the Panthers is already shaping up as our biggest regular season game in some time... The fact that this game is;
- Easily the best two teams in the comp.
- Grand Final replay from last year.
- A rematch from the game at the start of the year, that was decided on the very last play.
- Very possible Grand Final preview for this year.

Add to that, if we can somehow maintain our win streak, we will be playing for a club record 16 wins in a row. Respectfully, that is still 3 games away though and we will need to get past the Roosters, the Knights (with Ponga, Frizell and Pearce all back) and the Cowboys.

Most Consecutive Wins Record
1. 19 Matches - Roosters (1975)
T2. 17 Matches - Panthers (2020)
T2. 17 Matches - Bulldogs (2002)
T4. 16 Matches - Rabbitohs (1909)
T4. 16 Matches - Roosters (1913)
