After 4 rounds we've seen enough to make a realistic judgement of our top 4 or even top 8 chances.
The answer is simple......injuries.
As soon as I heard we had lost Snake, Wolf & Georgie for the Souths game I thought we would struggle.
If you look at the Newcastle game the week before, Snake & Wolf were involved in every scoring opportunity we had. So my assessment is, if we have speed in the backs we will make the top 4, if we don't we won't make the 8.
As an aside, assuming Snake, Wolf & Rose are available for next week, with Matai back we will be at full strength for the first time since GF 2008. I know Rodney is still out, but I don't think he is in the top 17 now.
If I'm right we will belt the gummies
