Eels v Week One Finals Team List Thread

[Kornstar]

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."

Not quite what I'm saying. I'm thinking it from my own point of view. If we lose to them but it is close I would be more confident of beating them in the GF, rather than beating them now and then having to face them again in the GF.

Bellamy is a pretty damn fine coach with some pretty damn good players.

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

I hope the boys can look at a recording of that game. I watched the replay of it today and there's so many things that came back into my memory from that day. Leading up to it we weren't given much hope cause of the week before getting beat by 30-0, only once in the McIntyre system history has 8th beaten 1st, everything was against us. We were given no chance.

Similar story going into this one, although some experts reckon we're a big chance, most of the talk has been how good the Storm are.

Anyway, if you watch the Dragons game in 2009 they basically threw everything at us for the first 20 minutes and only came away with a penalty goal. Our defence was on, if the wingers got close to scoring there were about 3-4 defenders sliding and pushing the bloke into touch.

Then we got down the other end, we put a bomb up and contested it which resulted in a try.

These are the sort of plays that can keep us in the game against the Storm. Grab every opportunity. I don't want them going into the game thinking that if we lose we're got a second chance.

I'm confident they can really challenge them. Cmon boys!!!

The storm can get f**ked, f**k the storm!!

Absolutely! I think the Eels are primed to cause a massive upset.

if we are seriously up to go all the way to the GF, then it really starts this weekend. I won't be overly pissed off if we lose, but I will be if we lose like f**kin' loosers lose.

Nah . That was the most thrown game in the history of thrown games. We didn't try one bit !

Almost as much as you when the Duke talks about 5 year plans.

Don't test your luck. You'll eventually start ejaculating blood.

There's more than one reason why Gary's no longer allowed to swim with the sharks. And that includes under supervision.

My tip. Vave omitted replaced by Gower on the bench.

What makes you think that mate? More mobile, safer?

I personally hope we go there to play some footy. Teams often get caught trying to grind out a win there and you don't do that to Melbourne
