Parramatta need to beat Manly by 11 points to go to 5th place on the ladder (11 points makes it a draw on for and against but I understand it then comes down to which team has the greater "for" points and that's us).

If we go to 5th, we want Melbourne to win their first semi and Easts to lose theirs. If Easts lose, it sends them into the Melboune side of the draw and we don't have to play either team to get into the Grand Final.

If we fail to beat Manly by the required points, we go to 6th on the ladder. We then want Melbourne to lose their first semi and Easts to win theirs, to send Melbourne to the same side of the draw as Easts and again, we don't have to play either team to make it to the Grand Final.

It's not a totally unbeleivable scenario but at least now we know who to root for in the semi's depending upon where we finish and of course, we have to keep winning.

  • U are cooked

    • 33 year droughts can do that to a fan....

      • What’s wrong with being optimistic? Seriously the amount of negativity on this site is becoming toxic. 

        • Go find a safe space then you chump.

          • Hi Alan, you must be a joy to live with. FFS do you EVER see anything at all that is positive?  Chronic whinger and moaner.  How about, just to change up your boring, hateful and monotonous shit, you create a blog with any positives that you might just see in a team that has gone from wooden spooners to making the eight?   Go for it. I am sure you can do this, but it will be difficult.

            • And you follow me around in this place like a whiney little bitch complaining about anything i post.  

               

              Put me on ignore or something if you don't like what i post otherwise STFU.

              • Are you and Fongy married together. Judging by your comments your the bitch in the relationship... 

                • Andwho the fuck are you again???? Another Nobody.
