Eels v Week One Finals Team List Thread

[Poupou Escobar]

Are you sure that is right? We lost to Storm in 2009 but wasn't our last loss before that 2005 against Cows?

And knights before that in 01?

Edit: Apologies Pou. I had somehow forgot about 06 and 07.

Don't apologise merkin, we're all too f**king lazy to do simple research sometimes.

The last final we lost to a team under the salary cap was 2005 to the cowboys.

And that was nightmare that day

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Its ok ... i have pretty much blocked out all our finals appearances since 86

Did we even make the finals in '86? I'm sure it was a lot longer than that.

 

[Bazal]

What does it mean?

It means 5 whales died and 300 ha of coral bleached while australias #1 marine biologist f**ked around on excel all morning

FFS

Number One?

What's this prick been telling you?

He's talking about our last finals appearance in 1786

The stage is set for an upset:

* Haven't beaten the Storm in Finals
* f**k the Storm
* Fairytale run to the Finals
* f**k the Storm
* Fairytale run to Top 4
* f**k. The. Storm.

Needs more "F**k the Storm".

Strider knows quality when he sees it.

Well then who have you paid to pass themselves off as you?

Gary described it to me as the anus of the sea.

 

[Gary Gutful]

That sounds like something I'd say.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

That sounds like something I'd say.

Remember that movie you made, Fish Can Fit Where Now?.. Were there ever charges?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Why would he make changes? That documentary turned an entire generation of perverts into conservationists.

 

[jk13]

Yep, f**k the storm, if only we could tear their pecs for some good old fashioned revenge

 

[The EELiminator]

Yep, f**k the storm, if only we could tear their pecs for some good old fashioned revenge

winning would be good enough and if somebody can knock them off the next week so much the better

 

[The EELiminator]

The stage is set for an upset:

the upset could have happened last week if the raiders concentrated on building pressure and completing their sets instead of going for the miracle ball

 

[emjaycee]

You asked and I have delivered.

I weighted wins as follows:

Beat 1st placed team - 8 points
Beat 2nd placed team - 7.5 points
Beat 3rd placed team - 7 points
Beat 4th placed team - 6.5 points
Beat 5th placed team - 6 points
Beat 6th placed team - 5.5 points
Beat 7th placed team - 5 points
Beat 8th placed team - 4.5 points
Beat 9th placed team - 4 points
Beat 10th placed team - 3.5 points
Beat 11th placed team - 3 points
Beat 12th placed team - 2.5 points
Beat 13th placed team - 2 points
Beat 14th placed team - 1.5 points
Beat 15th placed team - 1 points
Beat 16th placed team - 0.5 points

The revised table ends up looking like this:

Despite not playing as many top 8 teams as others, we still beat plenty of them and therefore finished 2nd. The Raiders and the Dragons also slip into the top 8 by virtue of some of their performances against better sides. The Titans also moved up considerably due to some solid wins over the likes of Parra and the Storm.

What does it all mean? F**k all really...

That's a fantastic effort Gary, really it is.
Did you use the relevant ladder position of the opposing side at the time of the game or at the end of round 26?
When we played St. George in Round 2 for example, they were first not the 9th they finished on.

But seriously, really good job mate.

Yep.

Good formatting can sometimes compensate for lack of substance.

Funny story. As 1000s of supporters walked out to their cars including me and old man and two friends we found a parking fine on our windscreens.Every car on street...
Apparently was a sign at stary of street. No parking on special occassions.
To rub salt into the wounds. merkin of a day.

I used the position at the end of the season. Thought about doing it at the time of the game but that would have been a lot more difficult.
