Rd21 2024: Eels v Storm GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank Stadium July 26th

[Suitman]

I'm more excited about going to Henson Park tomorrow for the Beer, Food and Footy Festival (Jets vs Eels), than I am watching tonight's game.

 

[Stevie]

I am loading up on Melbourne massively. The last game I got a great multi win.

A craft beer festival with a game of rugby league, what is not to enjoy...

Indeed.

 

[lingard]

Based on my mathematical model program I've recently started this week, Parra by at least 14 tonight.
Quote me later boys
*Sips absinthe*
Cheers!

According to my model, we win by 50 - with Lussick scoring six tries and man of the match.
(*sips kerosene*)

Dan Kier debut!

 

[Gherkin]

Glad to see Maka drop out

 

[Gherkin]

Wiremu having to push out big minutes is a worry. Grant and Hughes will be targeting him through the middle

 

[Noise]

Dan Kier debut!

But we didn’t see the jersey presentation on Instagram!!!!

Melbourne so confident they are going with a fullback and a halfback on bench along with a player who doesn’t play big minutes at the best of times on a return from injury, and a guy who has played 2 NRL games in his career.

they think they can do it with their starting 13.
And I believe them…

 

[Chipmunk]

Dan Kier debut!

His father was a former Raiders, Easts and Norths player in the 80s.

Was a very large figure in the local Canberra league scene as player, coach and administrator in the 90s, 00s.

Bro put on 10k. Not a gambler, but it has to be a lock right.

Sorry I won’t be able to make it. My parents have organized a lunch with my brother for his 45th

Thank gods for NSWRLTV

Eels by 30. Nothing surer.

 

[oldmancraigy]

I have made the necessary preparations and am now ready for this game.

Goals

1. Concede less than last time vs Storm (48), which was BAs finale. If more than 48, Barrett may as well pack up and clear out

2. Lose by fewer than 64 (the points differential advantage we have over the Tigers prior to this round)

3. Lose by less than the Tigers lose to the Warriors (<12)

4. Win by more than 82*. Unlikely.





*no significance in the number, but how satisfying would it be to beat the Storm like that?

 

[Cumberland Eel]

That Fa’alogo kid will probably only play 10mins tonight and still score a hatty

 

[Mickyd39]

Wow, that crowd looks terrible, totally understandable.

[Wally21]

There is literally no one there. The club will still say there was 14800
