    Simi Sasagi returns from injury for Canberra Raiders' match, exciting fans during Indigenous Round alongside other squad changes.

    The Simi Sasagi chant is so back.

    Canberra Raiders fans partial to enjoying the catchy cheer for the Green Machine cult hero were no doubt grinning with delight when Sasagi was named to return from injury to play this Sunday for Indigenous Round.

    Sasagi's inclusion for the Newcastle Knights clash at Canberra Stadium was one of three changes to the Raiders squad that was thumped by the Panthers in Mudgee last week.

    Young second-rower Joe Roddy returns to the NRL for the first time since round nine. The 20-year-old missed several weeks with a broken hand and then was suspended in NSW Cup upon his return.

    NRL run home: Panthers’ to lose, the battle for eighth, Knights safe but Bunnies teeter on the edge

    North Queensland faces finals elimination after an embarrassing loss, while the Panthers dominate, nearing minor premiership despite injuries.

    The Australian

    Will the most embarassing loss in living memory end North Queensland's finals hopes?

    And will Canterbury's recent run be enough to make it from here?

    We take a look at the next five rounds for every team still alive in the NRL, to see who will finish in the top eight and who will flunk out at the final hurdles.

    Played: 19, Won: 15, Lost: 4, Differential: +308

    The Panthers have hit their stride now, and despite some tricky games on the run home it's going to take a miracle to stop them even with Mitch Kenny (leg) and Dylan Edwards (shoulder) sidelined. Their complete demolition of Canberra in Mudgee has them flying at the top of the ladder with a ridiculous for and against, so even if they drop a game (unlikely) over the next five weeks they're basically assured the minor premiership. Six grand finals in seven years? Looks that way.
