oh f**k

 

[Grail]

On current form - it is no contest, especially given it is an Eels home game. Saying that who knows with the Warriors, they've got it in them, but this year it's been well and truly lost.

Eels by 30.

30? f**k you're generous to the warriors. i'd be surprised if this pea-hearted outfit even turn up for the game.

 

[One Warrior]

In their current form Eels by 50.

 

[slippy]

The Eels SHOULD win, but whether they do or not is another story, often have trouble beating teams we SHOULD put away..

Im not positive of victory - but we disposed of Cronulla like we should have, and if thats anything to go by then we will on saturday too.

Eels to win 36-10

 

[pantherz9103]

Its amazing how much the Eels have turned their form around. The Warriors are a joke and I'm pissed we didn't beat them. The Eels will not be complacent like Penrith were. Eels by 24

 

[Eelectrica]

Sorry Warriors, but Parra really should win this one comfortably. But who knows, our players might be thinking the same thing and not turn up for this one totally switched on.
The Warriors have had our number of late...

 

[TheFrog]

Parramatta are one of the few sides who on current form could really trouble the Dragons. Thus its hard to see the Warriors troubling them.

the wise man speaks Oz

bring it on, and I'll give you 10.5 start

 

[Tigers_are_Pro]

Had this weird feeling that the Warriors will win out of the blue. Eels really should and probably will but these creeping thoughts keep recurring. Eels by 20+ sensibly. Though I voted Warriors since I'm hoping they win.

 

[pantherz9103]

Warriors very nearly beat Penrith out of the blue, but Penrith were struggling with no Lewis or Pritchard and we were out muscled for most of that game by a rare good Warrior forward display. The stars are all aligning for the Eels. If they miss the 8, I seriously doubt it will be because they dropped a match like this, it would be in close losses that could happen against Tigers or Penrith. The Eels know that a loss to the Warriors probably undoes all their good work, they'll be switched on.

 

[kia ora storm]

Eels by 30...

 

[Whoosh]

The Eels will be too strong here.

[KeepingTheFaith]

This match will be like a cat playing with a mouse before killing it. Parra will ease their way into the match, cautious about giving the Warriors a sniff, and then once they have control and the Warriors lack of fitness shows through they'll open up and score plenty.

 

[Glenn]

Parramatta up 18-0 after 3 tries in 9 minutes.
