No, the Bullets lost South East Queenslander
Ha! Who do you support in the NRL?
Ya mum

I guess all Breakers fans now have to cheer for those Perth bastards when they play Brisbane.
And the Hawks playing matador defence against United tonight hasn’t helped our cause either. United with a massive win.
-
TAIPANS!!!!!!!
No one will want to play us.
-
@mariner4life I hope that's true for Melbourne United. I think the Breakers will need you to win that.
-
Win their last game. Hope the Bullets don't win again

If we can't beat the Phoenix then we don't deserve to make it. I wonder if Perth will do us a solid and play a full strength team?
-
@mariner4life Breakiers still have two to play don't they?
They appear to have had a game against the Hawks cancelled - so I think they still have to play the Phoenix and the Hawks.
They need to win both those and hope both the Wildcats and Taipans beat the Bullets and the Taipans also beat Melbourne United.
If those things don't happen and they end up even on points with either or both of Melbourne and the Bullets - I presume the tiebreaker is points differential.

Isn't the Hawks game the one that got rained off? It was a win to NZ because they led at the time the game was abandoned
-
@Chris-B The Breakers were credited with that win.

The Breakers have the better Points % but it is close, and Melbourne Utd are still alive. They have a Melbourne derby to end the season so the Phoenix could play spoiler to 2 teams.

@Bovidae said in NBL: Breakers and stuff:
Perth has beaten Brisbane so the Breakers are now in 4th place before the last round.
I don’t think we are. Brisbane only play one game in the final round and both us and United play 2. So Brisbane are still a game ahead of both Breakers and United, but have a lower points diff.
United beating Hawks by 20+ has moved their points diff above us.
So we win both and if the Taipans come to play and beat United and Brisbane, we are in.
-
@ACT-Crusader The Breakers only have one game to play. Both us and Brisbane have a 14-13 record but the Breakers have a better Points % (101.55 vs 100.57). If United beat Cairns then they can still finish 4th.
-
@ACT-Crusader the abandoned game was a win for us. So what are the permutations? We need to win with a better F/A than Brisbane if we both win, we win and Brisbane loses, or we both lose and we have a better FA? We are playing the second to bottom team, great chance and we really should do the business
-
@ACT-Crusader You're probably looking at that same google table I was - it's wrong.
-
Yep it is. Bullets and Breakers have 1 game each, Melbourne have 2. Easy to see all 3 teams ending on 15 wins.

So if all 3 end up on the same points who progresses?
