The Cowboys need to go 2-0 plus favourable results. They and Thurston struggle at times off the ball. The Broncos with Thaiday and Hodges fully back and Lockyer dominating are backing themselves. They’ve tightened the defence and will plan to cover any freakish Thurston plays.

R17 was about the turning point for the Eels. It went 38-34 for the Panthers but maybe not this time. They both need 1 (maybe 2) of 2. Waterhouse, Pritchard, Jennings and co opened up Souths, but the Eels are 6 straight. They’re playing the offloads and bringing belief and Hayne.

The Titans are 11-1 at Skilled Park but that they’re certain of the top 4 may assist Wests. They couldn’t hold the Eels roll in a talent display last week. A try-penalty turned it but they moved it at pace and Marshall is flying. They need this and the next but have what it takes.

You might put Storm’s destruction of ample possession in their home loss to the Eagles down to the 40k winds. Endless wrong options allowed Manly in. Probably they were hungrier. Storm’s attack was indifferent but you wouldn’t think they’d be troubled here.

Now injured and gone Souths capitulated v Panthers. There’s no attack plan not that there was much. Still, the Dragons were poor in Canberra and outplayed by the Broncos last week. In Sydney you’d expect they’ll bring it back now and they’ll plan for teams targeting Soward.

After a poor season start Manly brought desperation v Storm and now probably only need 1 more. They’ll be inspired by the courage of Lyons last week and are unlikely to let this go at Brookvale. The Sharks couldn’t take the heat, literally, v Titans. They’re low on strength and lower on plan.

The Dogs have been pushed at times lately by average teams but coasted v the Roosters. The front’s good and they’re showing some width but its largely based on Kimmorley and you wonder if he’ll get the freedom in the play offs. If the Warriors brought last week’s licence they’d have a runners chance.

The Raiders no doubt went to Auckland reluctantly and went down. The Knights have found under the refreshing Stone. Mullen is peaking and they dug deep to change the momentum from 8-22 at the half v Cowboys. They need 1, maybe both, so will come with everything.
