Rematch: Saints Vs Parra

[18to87]

Well Penrith didn't show up so its on.

Parra will be fired up but so will Saints!

 

[W.B.2.S.O.S]

Yeah Ill take Parra. So far this season, on average we have had our best defensive games against them. IE, we have only conceeded 8 points in 160 minutes of football, conceeding only 4 points each game. Our second best defensive stat is against the runner up spooners in the scum with 5 points per game.

You realise you're going to have your head bitten off for not writing 'spoiler'.

I wouldn't be too upset about having a 35 blot game spoiled.

Anyway my apologies, I do not live in Australia atm.

I don't see why, like most I was only interested in the final result so we know who the Dragons are up against next week. Personally I couldn't give a rats about seeing the game, and went straight to NRL.Com to find out.

 

[dragondad]

I actually don't watch the Sunday afternoon Channel 9 match because it's spoiled with so many ads.

 

[Dragonheart]

I'd rather play the Knights, and have the Eels and Dogs beat each other up. Either way we'll do 'em again. They may put up more of a fight this time around, but I think even Parra realises the end result is inevitable.

 

[God-King Dean]

That was such a heartless performance by Penrith. They deserve to be in the 8 after what they dished up.

This game isn't going to be as easy as Friday night.

No actually, we don't.

I'm glad 8 in my family are Parra Members even though they don't even watch footy.

I can get 16 tickets and give to Parra fans.

They have confirmed Kogarah as the venue for this game on Ch9 news.

Yes, I dont think Dragons fans here realise just how perfectly last Friday went, which made us look better than we really are (same thing happened to a lot of sides this weekend with blowouts)... dont expect a repeat of last Friday, but we are certainly favourites.

I may regret my words, but I am glad we are playing Parramatta, I dont really fear them as a team.

 

[STG-Dragon]

I am nervous about playing any team 2 games in a row especially after smashing them!

 

[Steel Dragon]

The Knights were never an option.
If Penrith won - we'd have played them. Since Knights won, we play eels.

 

[W.B.2.S.O.S]

If it was a draw between Penrith and Newcaslte, we would play Newcastle. Sorry steel dragon, it was a possiblity, but a very very very slim one :lol:

 

[TheRev]

- Penrith looked terrible, like they have for quite some time, such a horrible back end to the season for them, and they didnt deserve to be there.

- Newcastle have some potential (Gidley went off today), but I still think they are the softest team in the 8.

- The top 5 all look pretty lethal though (even Manly are coming into form at the right time), with the exception perhaps of the dogs, because we dont know if they can win a tough game without Kimmorley yet.

 

[Dragon_psa]

Anyone, anywhere, anytime.

Let them come to our fortress. Kinda reminds me of '77.

 

[Steel Dragon]

Nearly as slim as the Titans beating manly by 138 and winning the minor premiership!

KNights will cause havoc don't you worry they have beaten the Saints and Dogs so they can't be too bad. On their day they can beat anyone.

Parra will also be up for this game and will be no easy ride. Hindmarsh will make a difference that is for sure.

Yeah im sure the big slap in the face we gave Parramatta last week will be the wake-up call they needed + their captain returning. But I still think we have their measure even at full flight.

But im not 100% confident with our ability to chase scores in pressure games if we get behind, the Storm game a while back was the last time I can recall us doing it.

 

[Gaba]

Lets face reality here again

The eels dont have the 6 or 7 to do damage against good defence, the eels dont really have a another attacking option then hayne, the person who could be a threat making impact is mateo.The eels defence is not good against the good attacking teams

the dragons are comfortable

 

[Dragonheart]

No actually, we don't.

Not according to your forum. Those that are trying to remain positive keep quoting Parra performances from 2005, etc.....and those stating that IF the Dragons play like they did against Souths........really, c'mon.

A couple of bad games and the fact that we led the comp and played unbeatable football for so long is forgotten. I'm not taking anything for granted, and I don't believe Parra will be so easy this time around, but Friday night only showed that the Dragons are back on track, with their heads back in the game......it's an ominous sign to all other teams that the boys mean business.

Parra fans are hoping we fall over again, as it's the only way they can beat us.....good luck with that.:crazy:
