2020 QF2 (2 v 3) - Storm 36-24 Eels @ Suncorp

[greenBV4]

Nicho on the bench is an interesting choice, and I though Leutele would of been named in the centres

 

[Rhyno]

Eels by 7

It'll be close, Storm over the last 4 years have struggled week one of the finals.

2016- Won by 6 v Nth Qld
2017- Won by 2 v Parra
2018- Won by 1 v Souths
2019- Lost vs Canberra
All these games were in Melbourne

In saying that, I'm sure the players will be up for it and I still see a win, but it will be close.

You’re right! Clearly Melbourne are the underdogs

No it wont.

Storm... unless Cummins is the ref and decides to do it the same way the last time these two teams met...then it may be close.

Gutho whingeing about everyone writing off the Eels.

The bloke could sook for Australia.

Storm by the length of Martina’s strap on.

Martina prefers a chode.

Or so I’ve heard

The Eels could start today and the Storm would still beat them.

Eels have overachieved this season in a crazy year.

This is where the story ends for them.

It's the season's mystery in how that they led the comp for 8 straight weeks after the 2nd rnd, then clinged on for he rest of the season.

If the coach can snap Parra back into the early weeks of this season, they'll get the Storm. It'll have to be the game of their lives to do it.

I believe it has something to do with beating your mob

Won't even be a contest, Storm in a blowout.

Eels are, and forever will be shit... and that makes me so happy.

Moses to vanish again up against quality opppsition. Paulos constant offloads tore.brisbane up.last week but cant see that happening again against the WWE so melbourne will just suffocate them

I watched Storm today and they were shithouse, who lets the dragons come back and get the better of them? Cripple fight incoming.

Well, we did, for one!

 

[Eelementary]

Great that Storm will meet the Eels at Suncorp (pretty much their home ground when not at AAMI). If there is any upside to this game it's that we seem to be increasing our Qld supporter fan base. Brad Arthur's comment that the Eels got some confidence in beating the Tigers last week has some merit. So I am only able to pick the Storm by around 20 points.

Twenty points...you mean by half-time, right?

First Storm final I won't be at since 2015 v Roosters. Had a good run!

You think they got a bit cocky?

Thing is ppl are in a mindset that most of these finals are decided before they are played. Expect a couple of upsets across the board.
