2020 SF 2 - Eels 24-38 Rabbitohs @ Bankwest

[The_Frog]

We're missing more players from our top 17 than they are. They still have their first choice spine, Paulo, RCG, etc. They didn't fluke their way to 3rd. It'll be a close one IMO.

Yeah I know Latrell, Jimmy the Jet, don't know who the others are. But you've made it to this game without those blokes. It's a mad backline when you have blokes like that out and don't bat an eyelid. Paulo, RCG (when he wants to be) and Brown are quality middle forwards and will have to completely control the Rabbitoh pack to have a chance. It's getting harder and harder to control games with your forwards, the aim seems to be more and more attacking play and more tries, right up your alley.

You didn't lose yours less than a week before this game.

QLD? Illawarra? That's in Queensland Penrith!

Both at the Windsor Wolves about 10 odd years ago now when they were the NSW Cup feeder.

Recycle the old ones if you’re stuck. They never get old

Works for 2 Weeks.

And we love him for it.

 

[SDM]

Not bad, but its more like 4-3. Walker and Cook came through us too.

First Grade only, only smugthers care about junior footy

Speaking of smug, tonight's result depends how far up their own asses our players have got after the last fortnight. If we think we'll score 40+ and defend accordingly we're in for rude shock.

There's potentially a lot of smug there

 

[BranVan3000]

Why would someone do that to Sterlo?

 

[BunniesMan]

We are the form team of the comp over the last 2 weeks. And whatever drama off field we have, the Eels have just exceeded that. I can't see how we lose this.

 

[Bazal]

The only question is who will enjoy the Eels loss more?

The inexplicable number of Eels haters who for some reason think themselves geniuses for saying what Parra fans have been saying for 40 years, or the majority of Parra fans themselves who are actually deadshit loosers with the patience and intellect of a mayfly?

That's the real battle

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

I would gladly do this to Sterlo

I thought he retired last century.

 

[Jason Maher]

Not sure the Eels can win without their inspirational leader, Nathan Hindmarsh.

in other old news, Michael Cronin also out.

Jarryd Hayne is also out. Walked out to have a go at NFL. True story, you heard it here first

 

[Tipster]

Wild to think that both top 4 teams may got out in straight sets. Demonstrates how even this comp is this year.
