       My predicted top 8
       1. Bulldogs
       2. Raiders
       3. Eels
       4. Sea Eagles
       5. Knights
       6. Dragons
       7. Storm
       8. Cowboys
       Spoon: Roosters
       Hard to look past a Bulldogs v Raiders Grand Final

       Yeh I love this time of the season!  But I think its going to be
       tight with the Warriors, Panthers,  Sharks and Titans.  Even
       Storm are teetering on missing the finals for the 1st time since
       the salary cap rort! As they have 2 very big games coming up.
       It appears 14 points will get you in to 8th place.  So F/A is
       crucial here...
       We got some real tough contenders in the comp at the moment so
       the draw for the next round is always hard to predict and it
       will come down to form for each team.  Take your time to prep
       for each game here guys, we will announce the deadline for the
       finals weeks to begin soon, so make sure your getting your 8
       hours, thai massages, set play structuring and V/Coffee/Tea hits
       in prep for each game.
       Looking at who has "easy games" I have put down my prediction
       for the top 8.
       1. Dogs
       2. Raiders
       3. Eels
       4. Cows
       5. Sea Eag
       6. Dragons
       7. Titans
       8. Storm
       9. Panthers (on f/a) -unless szauc can keep the upset train
       rolling!
       The top 4 1st week will be a cracker and Im gagging to get a
       seat on the couch for each game =/
       I think we may just see a Cows v Raiders Final -based on the
       amount they have been playing lately!
       Champion for bottom 8 finals? -Maybe Knights

       It is so tight. Looking at my team, I play Melbourne and the
       cowboys who are biting at my toes on the ladder and my next game
       is vs the Sharks who are a win behind me also. EVERY game is
       vital for me. I know my position in the finals is not secured.
       I am tipping a Bulldogs vs Storm grand Final. The Raiders have
       been strong contenders all season but I think in CC games he has
       shown that he is human on rare occasions. Anything can happen.
       My final 8
       1. Bulldogs
       2. Raiders
       3. Eels
       4. Manly
       5. Storm
       6. Titans
       7. Sharks
       8. Cowboys

       Yeah I have made it tough on myself with the blow out score
       lines when I have lost, it is amazing that my 'against' is the
       worst in the comp yet I am up in 9th.
       The only way in is to cause potentially the upset of the season
       and take down the Bulldogs and then beat the Roosters which I
       could lose too because Sane knows my game and I know his.
       So 16 points is my only chance.

       I can tell you I got this figured out.
       1.Bulldogs 30
       2. Raiders 26
       3. Eels 20
       4. Cowboys 16
       5. Dragons 16
       6. Titans 16
       7. Sea Eagles 16
       8. Storm 16
       I gave myself one win of the last 2 games (i lost to titans) if
       i can't do that i'm gone from the 8. And I hope I haven't put
       the mochas on myself for predicting. I reckon from 4 to 8 will
       finish on 16 points and it will come to for and against.
       Finals will play out to a Bulldogs V Dragons final. With Dragons
       just pipping Raiders in the Semi and Eels going down to Bulldogs
       with lag issues.
       You might as well not play the finals now that you know what is
       going to happen.  ;)

       I'm cheering for Raiders. I hope the team can pass up to 1st.
       That will make me very proud.
