Putting on the "highly optimistic" (read deluded
) hat it looks like this year will be one of those where just 11 wins will be enough to play finals or even as low as 10.5 wins with a good %. The top 5 sides will win most of their remaining games while the bottom 4 will lose virtually all of theirs. So it's up to the 8 mediocre sides in the middle to win the 8-point games like last night's. A bad loss for the Dees as they have the bye next week. If we were good enough
there's a finals spot there for the taking with possibly 6 sides separated by just 4 points after this round if the Saints beat the Roos.
