I think Tigers will eventually improve and get out of there. I think the Roosters will win it, but it entirely depends on the injury lists of Sharks and Parramatta TBH.
For sure. If Hayne for example got injured next week I'd go out and put money on Parra getting the spoon.
Cronulla. If not them, Parramatta. The Roosters team is far too similar to the one that made the top four last year for mine. They've been playing ridiculously poorly but I can't help but think they'll eventually snap out of it if they don't panic too much. The Tigers are mediocre. They are every year. They're not very good but they won't get the spoon.
Roosters. Ive never rated Brad Fittler as a coach and based on last nights performance, Beetson hasnt helped them. I think they're all out of answers.
Roosters to get it, too many liabilities in their team. Cronulla's youth shall revive them, Eels and Tigers to scrape enough points together to avoid it.
Melbourne. The NRL finds out that they have gone over the salary cap and takes away all of their points/
Tigers actually have a decent, top 8 quality squad. We've just gone through a really rough patch with injuries and tight losses. For a period, we'd lost our 3 best players in Galloway, Farah and Lawrence. If we don't lose those 3 games to the Dogs, Souths and Broncos which we should've won all 3, we probably do better in our last 2 games and could just as easily be sitting in, our just outside the top 4. For a team who plays John Morris in the halves, Dene Halatau, Beau Ryan and Corey Payne we are pretty good. For mine, it'll be the Eels. They are a rubbish side. It looks like the Sharkies may start to come good after dropping the deadwood and the Roosters are horrid and may challenge the eels.
