Rnd 1 vs Warriors

[Gronk]

If anyone saw NZ flog the Broncos yesterday, our first match could get ugly unless we man up and focus on defence. The Warriors have points in them all over the park.

I think we will see a lot of ugly scorelines again this year. Anyone who seriously thinks we are a chance at any better than a 13-16th placed finish are kidding themselves IMHO.

Hope to be proven wrong of course.

Parra at home last year where always competitive.Plus it could be warm

Saw it and we will get thrashed. Tomkins is a an awesome player.

 

[Tooooks]

Warriors are a top 4 team this year, I reckon. Don't know if I'd be predicting round 1 results off the back of trial form though.

 

[Pazza]

the warriors are the definition of inconsistency!

they could be complete rubbish against us for all we know.

Lets not forget that the trail game was the first time a lot of our boys had played together, its going to take time to build continuity between the players. but i highly doubt with the talent we got that we are going to be completely shit again (as long as our roster stays healthy).

 

[PARRA_FAN]

I reckon the score will be a bit closer than last year's game.

If we get them early, muscle up in defence, the Warriors wont have much room. Except probably out wide, I know it was only a trial but our defence our wide against Manly was ordinary, really needs to improve.

 

[Joely01]

The broncos were rubbish yesterday, we will put in a much better performance at home against them.

Match will be a very close one I reckon, don't forget we have points all over the park as well, Hayne, Hoppa, Norman and Sandow (if he gets the spot)

 

[T.S Quint]

Hard to gauge trial form.
Warriors on their day will destroy any team. On the other days though they just fall to pieces.

 

[Eelementary]

I remember reading the same things last year before round one. I'm not suggesting we will see the same result, but I'm not willing to write the Eels off just yet.

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

I didn't see any of the game, but i don't rate Brisbane's chances this year. Round one will be a different story for the Warriors

 

[ParraSteve]

Id sacrifice getting smashed in round 1 if we dont end up with the spoon again

If anyone saw us smash the Warriors last year, round one is meaningless, much less the trials.

 

[The Elephant In The room]

If anyone saw us smash the Warriors last year, round one is meaningless, much less the trials.

If anyone saw the Eels in 2009, the first 18 rounds are meaningless, much less the trials.

 

[Gronk]

Yeah but did you see us in 2001 ! The past 13 years mean nothing.

 

[Juju]

I am a Warriors fan. But I will gamble on you guys rd 1.
Warrors played good yesterday but the Broncos were really really poor

Eels play good at home. Add +2 penalties for home game advantage. It could be closer than we all think.

Judging on how shit my team is at Round 1, me like Juju will place some $$$ on the Eels to win but if the Warriors click and put a great performance in. I'll be happy to lose money

shitting your pants over a trial game against the yesteryear show ponys? :lol:

Eels by 18 plus, nothing surer

In Round 18 when we play you for the 2nd time in 2014, I'll be as confident as you are. We always play our best in the 2nd half of the year. We are slow starters going by our history
