The Race to 7th and 8th: Who Makes It?

Tigers (16 points, -140 points difference)

Final Four: Cowboys, Sharks, Panthers, Bulldogs

The Wests Tigers have been their own worst enemies at different parts of the season. They won’t go into the final four rounds with high levels of confidence, having just won twice since their win over the Panthers in Round 13.

Their loss to New Zealand Warriors in Round 20 showed how inconsistent their efforts are. In their win against the Bulldogs they showed lapses in concentration which saw them work harder for victory than they needed to.

It seems unrealistic that they can wave a magic wand and solve their problems quick enough to save their season, despite the excellent form of Adam Doueihi throughout the season.
