CAN'T SEE THE GAYLORD DOGGIES GETTING UP

I can see them giving Parra an awful lot of trouble, if they play to their strengths and are interested. These sides have such history that an expert motivator like Des could well lift the Dogs to great heights even though they have nothing to play for. He's done it enough times before.

The thing with the Dogs is, you know they are going to strike form some time or other, but you don't know when.

 

[Das Gupta]

Don't worry Des is throwing off the shackles so the Dogs can play a more exciting brand of attacking football.
Been hearing that one for the past 18 months. Must mean more last minute panic passes that result in more handling errors.
Eels to put this match out the dogs reach by half time.

 

[Hawkins]

Eels.

IF you do the math Bulldogs are done right?

 

[Rhino_NQ]

if des gives them more of a license to attack will that mean Reynolds will just run sideways faster?

 

[WaznTheGreat]

We should win by 80 which means we will lose by 80

Bulldogs by 80

Cap cheats v cap cheating infidels.

Cap cheats got this

Eels.

IF you do the math Bulldogs are done right?

Mathematically I think only Newcastle are actually the only team who cannot make finals by any combination of results. WT are 14 and the 8th place are 24 so there's still some miracle I think?

Realistically everyone from Canberra down is no hope, though.

The Raiders might make it if they win every game, but they've got some tough ones.

WT are 14 and the 8th place are 24 so there's still some miracle I think?

The Tigers could make 24, but the two teams in 8th place on 24 play each other, so one of them at least has to move higher. Thus the Tigers are also officially eliminated.

 

[ed-grimley]

If Parra play like they did the last 70 min of the game v Brisbane they will win - hope they can keep the momentum going.

Nah,I really doubt it froggy.The Bulldogs are a busted arse.And you can't beat confident form which Parra are in ATM.

It's a fisting by Parra to the tuuuune of.....30 points.

 

[typicalfan]

I think Parra about 20-6 or something.

 

[natheel]

Can't get complacent after a very good performance v Broncos. Even though dogs are out of the hunt they can still rock the boat a bit and will be looking to do that to us. Need to be on our game. Eels by 4

HASLER IS POO ( )

 

[wittyfan]

The Broncos of Western Sydney will win this in a canter. Eels by 26.

 

[footy75]

Eels eyeing off a top 4 spot...need to win this if serious.

 

[Clifferd]

Can't see anything other than a strong eels win. They look the goods

 

[hineyrulz]

The Dogs will drag us down into a derpfest, hopefully we do enough to get the win. Anything more is a bonus.

 

[AJB1102]

The thing with the Dogs is, you know they are going to strike form some time or other, but you don't know when.

I don't think they're a good team in bad form though. Not convinced they got another gear to find.

Parra by as much as they like if they're fair dinkum.
