Far out the bandwagon fans are shocking. JT has no size to pick from. Everyone is injured so he almost has to pick "light" players on the bench. You can't blame the coach for so many forwards being injured

If we beat the Sharks tomorrow, parra will knock off the storm.

The boys need a rest but I can't say I am that confident. They were flat in the second half - the four day turnaround after a beating from the Broncos wasn't ideal. A nine day break may help them and maybe get a player or tow back. I'd like to hope we go down punching.....

I think it's taken it's toll on our backrowers who are also playing prop, you can really only do so much can you?? tbh they've over achieved as far as I'm concerned, but we'll definitely turn up against the storm anyway.

So what does that mean if we have a game on tonight? Are you meaning it in a way that we have one less day to prepare for it than you? If you are lets not forget thet we're not the ones that had to fly to Nth Queensland, fly hiome and then fly back to Melbourne to play again. Hardly long flights i know, but my point is that we don't have to move from Melboune and that'd more than make up for the one less day we have to prepare. Besides we'll have over a full week to recover anyway so it won't make the slightest difference anyway ;-)

Parra are just grabbing at anything that will give them the slightest glimmer of hope before the slaughter happens...;-)

Everybody is kicking parra while they are down. Injuries are killing them, not bad form. They have made an admirable effort to get this far after their poor start. Every parra fan should be proud, no matter what they do from here.

I am. The spirit this Parra team has shown over the last 3 months is tremendous. Whatever happens from here is a bonus.
3 months ago I never thought we could be in the finals.
We'll make Melbourne earn their week off that's for sure.

no, it means if you pick up some key injuries which might actually happen it may make very interesting..but I'm expecting 2 things.

1] we're definitely playing you guys because I'm not prepared to pin my hopes on Cronulla.

2] you'd be at full strength anf virtually impossable to beat.
