The run home is less settled than usual this year - with all the byes confusing the ladder.

Three top eight teams have played less games than the other five teams. That's two points they've been gifted without having to actually win a game. It's a also a free week off to rest and recover from injuries which has given them an advantage in the games they have played so far this season... personally I'd rather have those weeks off late in the season.

The sharks for example are 6th, but I pick them to finish 8th or 9th.
