Tips will not be accepted after this time.

Good morning Tipsters,

What an interesting round of football with the top six teams playing their own finals series and the final two spots being less clear after key losses.

Heavyweights Flex Their Muscle

The 2021 Premiership is the Storms to lose. They have an incredible win record in Queensland and the best depth in their playing roster. Only a Nathan Cleary led Panthers and the inform Rabbitohs have potential to cause an upset. Every other team is just there to make the numbers

What Could Have Been

The Eels, Roosters and Sea Eagles all let slip chances to lock in the crucial fourth spot on the ladder. They will make up the top six.

The final two spots in the finals are still open. The Titans (7^th) and Raiders (8^th) play top three teams.

The key match will be the Knights (9^th) and Sharks (10^th).

You can put the red biro through the remaining teams.

Greatest Bunny Point Scorer

Congratulations to Adam Reynolds for being the highest pointer scorer in the Rabbitohs 113 year history. Reynolds overtakes Eric Simms who held this record for 41 years.

1850 points and counting before becoming a Bronco in 2022.
