[JamesRustle]

North QLD to give Parra an absolute whipping. Cows by 38.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

BA cooking up a master plan

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Moses is out then suddenly the whole castle of cards is falling down. I'm tipping Parra just because they're at home, but if they find a way to lose this, gee whiz.

 

[The Man Shake]

Cowboys by 6 in the Battle of the Bald.

 

[Parra Pride]

Hoping the Cowboys warm it up and it leads to BA getting sent packing.

 

[mozza91]

BA is the ultimate tactician. After conceding 41 points the only option is to bring in a defensive dynamo like Morgan Harper!

 

[This Year?]

Eels will win. I can feel it in my scalp.

 

[Phil McGrawhan]

Eels are not going well …but neither are the Cows .
Our defence would let in tries by an under 9s team.
.we’ve beaten easy beat teams ..some just getting the win .
Lol the Tits nearly rolled us last week .
could go either way but I expect the eels at home will beat us ….

 

[GongPanther]

Cartwright plus a few other changes will spark up the Parra players in getting in their heads that changes will be made, and from now on nobody can simply blame the coaching staff alone as a whipping boy.

This is about players taking responsibility, and start showing pride for the jersey and the fans.

Parra by 24-12.

 

[hineyrulz]

No matter what happens in this one bald will be the winner.

 

[Apey]

I can't see many upsets this round, I feel like this has to be the game. Cowboys are like the Titans of previous years, great attack, awful defence. Parra are better at home.

Wait I just saw Morgan Harper has been named again. Never mind.

 

[Cowboyz]

Until the Cowboys fix their defence, Eels by 20

 

[Valheru]

Cowboys nowhere near as good as their ladder position IMO

If Parra doesn't offer some bounce back after last Week Arthur should sack himself

Parra by 8

 

[84 Baby]

I’m lubing up the 50 thread. Could be a fire sale of Eels players if they continue with their awe inspiring efforts of past 2 weeks

 

[Fangs]

Carn Eels 1-12.

Cowboys are pretenders put them to the sword boys (Or perhaps I should say the pearl handled six shooter).

 

[KOMORI]

Hahhahahah f**ken bunker lols

 

[KOMORI]

That was too easy…

 

[mave]

Parra playing like they want the coach sacked.

 

[The Rosco]

Great crowd, Parra faithful.
