It's probably getting a bit lost since the bunnies are dominating, but geez the Rorters are getting plenty of favourable treatment with the officials. Lack of camera angles aside, the bunnies should have had multiple set re-starts and yet it's the Rorters getting one for something I can't even see.
This bunnies side is very good, hoping they can hold on and give us a shot at the 4

Yep and hopefully the second half will get spiteful

But what a luxury to be able to bring on someone like Benji Marshall as a replacement.
Souths haven't given him and time to get involved. This Souths team has a lot of strike over the park
This games should lock up 4th for us and I'm stoked as we didn't look like a chance in hell of top 4 after our first 5 weeks..
It means we have been a success regardless of how the finals pan out ..
BUT..
Coming 4th also means, boy we are gonna do it tough.
Play storm.. if we lose we most likely play roosters, then Penrith to make gf, then likely storm again... Yikes .. almost impossible imo .
If we beat storm week 1.. we get a week off, likely play bunnies to make gf then likely storm or Panthers in gf.. yikes again..
If we come 5th however, we likely play Titans.. easy.. onto roosters... Again, not too hard, before penny to make finals..
Results wise, if we come 4th and lose to storm, we woulda been alot better off coming 5th and having a very beatable run into the gf qualifier

I'd be happy with any one of those scenarios if we make the big dance as a result 🙂
True that brother.
The realist in me thinks we will need a huge month from one tom turbo to make it, I think when it comes to crunch time, other teams having hookers like Smith/grant, cook or API while we have Croker.. it's like they have machine guns and we have a pea shooter.
Don't get me wrong, hes really stood up this year and been solid, but it's gonna be hard to beat those top 3 sides with some of the players we have. Which is why were 0 from 4 against them this year
