Round 26 – Wow!

What a round we have this weekend with a number of games to determine the Top 8. Let’s have a look at them and the key players who could make the difference.

Cowboys vs Titans – Can Jarryd Hayne lift his team into what looked an unlikely Top 8 spot eight weeks ago? Or will JT pull off another masterclass to give the Cowboys a Top 4 position.

Storm vs Sharks – Minor Premiership battle. The Storm are hurting from last week and rarely put in two poor performances in a row, but the Sharks bounced back last week and if Barba can fire up, then the Sharks may get their first Minor Premiership in 17 years. Game of the Round.

Tigers vs Raiders – Both teams are on a roll and the Tigers will know if they are playing for eighth position. They have showed they can play through adversity and under pressure and the form of Mitchell Moses has been inspiring for them. Coach Ricky Stuart has already indicated he may rest a few players but he will also know before kick-off whether he is playing for a Top 2 spot.

Broncos could get a Top 4 spot if they win and other results go their way and the same can be said for the Dogs in their game verse the Rabbitohs.
