Qualifying Final Eels v Storm Gameday Thread

[Wally21]

Outmuscling them, out enthusing them and playing against 15 players on the field. Not sure if we can win, but can't help but dream!!!

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Fair to say that this is going a hell of a lot better than just about everyone expected. Keep it up and please refs, grow some balls. We're gonna need them.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Got to give credit Smith, wasn't confident in his fullback positioning but has been great so far!!

 

[Gronk]

Go us.

 

[The EELiminator]

Keep up the effort in defence and no early kicks use up the whole six tackles at least for the first few sets

 

[Parra Pride]

We need to start this half strong, can't let Melbourne get closer than six points.

 

[Suitman]

who they want to win

That's rubbish.
The NRL would much rather ANZ filled with blue and gold on Grand Final day than a few thousand Storm fans and 70000 people sitting on the fence.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

It's probably a good thing Auva'a ran out. What would BA rip into them about with a 100% completion rate?

 

[The EELiminator]

Run at them and keep using up their energy in defence

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Competition rate is the key!! And the line speed needs to continue!!

 

[woddy]

Have we lost a game leading at halftime this year?..... We're good to go on with this ,just worried about the 15-20min clock off period

That's it mate, if the refs do what's all refs have done to us this year, we will be playing 15

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Everyone know if Moeroa can come back?

He was great !! Would nice to have him on the field for the last 20, could be the difference

No. It's a fun little stat, but it's not going to mean shit against Melbourne in Melbourne. We can't afford to let them get any close than they are now or they will make us pay.

 

[El Diablo]

What an effort.

So proud win lose or draw.


Have a bad feeling Ben Cumstains will have to get involved.

Beardo called him at h/t

 

[hineyrulz]

Half time came at a bad time.

 

[El Diablo]

That's it mate, if the refs do what's all refs have done to us this year, we will be playing 15

plus the bunker

Definitely need to keep up line speed run at them

 

[Bandwagon]

You'd have to think Moeroa is gone given he didn't come back on, it's a free interchange?

 

[oldmancraigy]

Storm try was a forward pass.
Kenny didnt knock it on.

8-10 point swing in Storms favour in the first half... like they needed a legup
