Personally, I think we're going to get a reaming or three in the first half of the season. But for some reason I can deal with that far more than what's been served up by the Eels in quite some time. I expect to see quite the amount of blood letting on here as well.
I dunno. I'm cautiously optimistic at this stage. Getting the Storm away in Round 1 might be the best thing for us. The Storm will be pumped. If we can stay within 16 with some of the outs we'll have, I reckon we can build on that.

If we pull one out of our arses and manage to beat the Storm round 1, it would be a massive confidence boost.

I’m not sure. Off the cuff, do you think we’ll beat the Storm at home with the imposing Round 1 track record that they have?
We're a chance its not like Melbourne actually blow teams away in round 1. There average winning margin is 9.28

They haven't won 13+ since 2018.

3 of there 1st round wins in the 21 years under Bellamy have been golden point wins.

Including the one at commbank 2 x years ago. Which really we should have won.

Rd 1 under Bellamy

* Equals Golden Point wins

The HOF has nothing to do with the cap.....

You've outdone yourself this time
I'm sure he's in the list management group, along with all the other decision makers. Why would you leave multi million dollar contract decisions in the hands of one person? Have you never heard of corporate governance?

But but but we just want someone to blame!!!

Everyone knew he was talking about Collins and the way he took the bomb over teddy in origin. You just missed the joke.
Well I've said before I lost interest in Origin about 20 years ago when I realised they pick f**k all Parramatta players. Who wants to cheer for a bunch of Roosters, Manly and Penrith merkins ffs. I'll watch the start of the game until I get bored and then just check score updates. If it's still close with 15 minutes to go I might watch the end.

I dont give a shit if you watch origin or not. But dont come in and blindly argue with someone over something you admittedly have no clue about .... just admit you missed the point.
