If I have read correctly, we could end up playing both the Bulldogs and the Storm (or Rabbitohs) just to make the GF.
Assuming the top 5 finishes like this:
1 Bulldogs
2 Storm
3 Rabbits
4 Sea Eagles
5 Cowboys
Our first match would be against the Bulldogs, and assuming we lose that match, we will then meet the winner of 5 or 8 which would be the Cowboys.
If victorious in that game, we would then play the Storm in the preliminary final - assuming, of course that the Storm win their first finals game against the 3rd place team (Rabbits).
If the Rabbits beat the Storm in the 2-3 game, then we will then surely play them in the prelim final.
----
However, if we beat the Bulldogs in week one, we go straight to the prelim final and will play -- most probably -- the Rabbits. A much easier task.
