  1. This doesn't answer your question.Melbourne might be tough to roll but I have a suspicion that the team from Auckland could well be the giant killer.I hope so anyway


  2. If 1st place wins,they only have to win two more semi to be guaranteed a spot in the GF.If they lose they have to play whoever wins out of 2nd and 7th,sudden death.Its a bit hard to say until we complete the first round of semi's.Yea go Melbourne,dont get ya hopes up,I can feel a big upset comin there way.The secret attack of the bunny's has gone unnoticed all year,its about to come out of the magicians hat big time!!  watch em go.

    OK ignore all that,I stand corrected,thanks parrrr

  3. go to nrl.com and check out the ladder predictor and all possibilities can be searched

    ps melbourne SHOULD win in a canter but beware the bulldogs

  4. 2 hard to explain in writing but if Melbourne win Nickson Faction is wrong they will go straight to week 3 and only need to win to play in the final, same goes for manly

  5. So there's the top 8 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) and in week one (Qualifying) they play as you say.

    Then they get ranked again...4 winners, 4 losers.  So if 1 plays 8, the winner is A and the loser is B.  2 v 7 - winner C loser D and so on.  After week 2 the ratings are A C E G (winners) B D F H (losers).  Then the top two winning teams (A and C) get a week off, and the bottom two losing teams (F and H) are out of the competition.  

    Week 2 (Semis) - Then E plays D and G plays B.  Again the top two winning teams make it through, and the bottom two losing teams are out.

    Week 3 (Prelims) - And then team A plays the top winning team and team C play the second winning team.

    Week 4 (Grand) - the winner of each game from the week before play in the grand final.
