Ducks and Drakes

I think it is interesting looking at the ladder in this final round. Bit like a game of poker, do we show our hand, call the other team’s bluff, or even let a game go?  I mean seriously GC 36- New 6?  Alternatively, relying on Cronulla to beat Canberra would seem nuts, another twist, Roosters go down to Souths, we win, they remain in 4th and play Penrith, we face Storm. Interested in others thoughts around this unusual final round and whether certain teams are possibly throwing games.

      • I don’t think they are a 40 point better side than the roosters.Roosters are a way better side than Souths there is no doubt about that.I suppose we will all see next week in the finals should be a cracking series

      • I’m not sure why though Frankie.Roosters have always handled the storm over the years.And Parra could get rolled tomorrow resulting in the roosters playing storm anyway.

          • Why would you want to get hammered by 50+ points in the last game before finals?

            Robinson must be a total bush coach eh Fong?

            Worst Roosters loss in how long?

            Makes the Eels loss to the Rabbits look close.

          • That’s true Frankie.Whats the status on friends injury?

      • Agree Mick, Robinson is in shock.

        • Academy award for Robinson pretending to look shocked. No. His body language said it all. Who cares who you play in finals. 

        • Roosters will lift next week there to good a side.But if friend is out that’s a massive loss as verills is out also

      • As they kept reminding us eels fans last year. No team has won a premiership when they have had 50 points put on them through the season

    • Slugg are Parra resting players also

    • My thoughts exactly
