The one thing that upsets me the most about the NRL this season is that 4 sides have outstanding defences and one if not two of those teams will miss the finals the four sides are the Bunnies,Sharks,Warriors and Storm.The Warriors should make the eight as will the Storm but the other two's fate rests firmly in their own hands the Sharks are gone in my opinion but the Bunnies are still a decent shot,but they need to win this week as of all the sides their Race for the Eight firmly begins now.

The Bunnies played very well last week and if not for Meritts two missed conversions they would of potted a field goal and won the match,but Bunnies supporters should blame David Fa"Alongo who was back here in NZ and never returned for the Storm match a shocking thing to do and I would garauntee you all that if he would of been playing the Bunnies would of won.

The Eels were absoloutly flogged by Danny Buderus last Monday night and that effort was to be expected as this Eels side is no where near as good as their position on the table would suggest,they have a wonderful side and will make the eight but that performance last week was due and it happened so put that behind them and advance to this week where they play the Bunnies without Burt and Cayless,now those two players are rather big losses,imparticular Burt who has been a points scoring machine,I see Reddy has been called into the centres and Inu has been pushed to the back,but the Bunnies would rate their chances here by playing dummy half runners as they would of seen the sucess that the Knights had in doing so last week.

Even though the Eels will make the finals,I doubt they will last long once the finals start,they are very up and down and look like world beaters one week and also rans the next,even though the Bunnies have a terrible record against the Eels,I stll rate the Bunnies as the far mors consistent side and their forward pack has looked up to the task against all the top sides so the Bunnies season hinges on whether they can score some points to go with their rock solid defence and the signs in recent weeks is that they can and i'm picking them to follow up on that effort last week and take it to the Eels this week,if the Bunnies can replicate that performance from last weekend to this weekend then they will win this match,Good Luck.
