Eels v Week One Finals Team List Thread

[Poupou Escobar]

Would have fits better than 'would of'.

*better then

We won't win, who are we kidding.

They are too clinical, too perfect a football side. For us to have a remote chance our completion rate HAS to be over 90 percent.

Plus we need them to be off their game, particularly Cronks kicking. Moses and Norman need to be on song, a couple of 40/20s would help

Storm by 14-18 points for mine

nobody thought we could beat the broncos either
we love the underdogs tag most of our losses have been to teams under us if we go down there determined to have a red hot crack and just add a little bit of patience we will be competitive

Form vs Top 8 sides.

My analysis is better.

Yeah it actually was

Round 14 was not origin affected - f**kin JT beat us
Round 18 was origin affected - we beat the storm without their merkins

Considering playing finals football is new territory for this team as a whole this will primarily be a litmus test for BA as a coach and how he responds IF we get done over. From my point of view I am liking this game first up in the semis. There's a lot to learn from playing the minor premiers on their home ground without the prospect of being punted from the finals if we lose. Give us the blowtorch first up and see how we respond. Every man and his dog thinks we are going to get done on Saturday and BA knows this more than anyone. I reckon we are a decent chance and he will prepare the team accordingly. I will be heading to Brisbane on Saturday but staying overnight in Yamba. I will be glued to the big screen TV at the pub like Pou is to a stat sheet.

The chances are if we wanted to win the GF given our finishing positions, we have to beat the Storm twice. So that being the case it would be better for us to lose this week (in a very close game) and then take the lessons from this game and add French in the GF and we just could get them.

No way we beat them twice in the finals though.

As long as we drop Mannah for the grand final. That merkin has lost every one he's played.

I don't think beating the Storm this week makes us more likely to lose to them the second time around.

if we beat them this week it opens up the possibility that we won't face them again

So, Brad is going to tell the lads "We are going to throw this game because we can't beat them twice. Of course, this makes this weekends game easier on me because nobody expects us to win and we have no chance anyway."

remember back in 2009 when the dragons were minor premiers then we beat them and the broncos knocked them out wouldn't it be great if that happened to the storm

if anything it would make us more likely to win knowing we have done it before
