It’s the home stretch, the final game that decides your ultimate NRL Finals fate. Though we already know seven of this year’s eight combatants, every spot between second and eighth is still up for grabs!
So with 80 minutes of the regular season to go, what does your team need to go their way?
4. SYDNEY ROOSTERS
Best finish: 5th
If the Roosters can overcome South Sydney and Melbourne can beat Parramatta, a superior for-and-against will take the Tri-colours over the Eels and into fifth place.
Other option: 6th
If the Roosters beat South Sydney and Parramatta manage to overthrow Melbourne, the Storm’s far superior points differential will likely leave the Roosters in sixth – barring some absolute blowouts on the scoreboard.
Worst finish: 7th
If the Roosters lose to the Rabbitohs, they’ll only fall one spot, but will suddenly become the away team in an Elimination game against the Eels or South Sydney.
