Team list Tuesday ~ Rnd 12 vs Raiders ~ The Clinton Schifcofske Cup

[Poupou Escobar]

Raiders halves playing together for the first time in an NRL game. Weak in the centres. We’re morals.

Not if we take them lightly. The way these merkins are carrying on there’s a good chance the dopey players will also go into the game thinking we’re specials. But have no doubt, this is a danger game for us.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Canberra is our worst opponent away from home when it comes to win%.

Its really bizarre this table when you consider Brisbane & Melbourne have been powerhouses since they entered the competition. Our record against them is excellent on the road.

Most teams have win% under 30% in Brisbane & Melbourne.

While Canberra since 1994 have been mediocre to say the least and we barely can ever win down there..

Is it the cold or just bad luck. We didn't even win down there in 2001 when we basically lost 4 games all year

Canberra have been a bogey team for us until recently and are in way better form than us. We have the stronger team on paper but this is the sort of game we could easily drop because they’ll be motivated and you never know what side of the bed we’ll wake up on.

 

[eels_fan]

And it’s bloody cold down there atm..

I was at Brisbane airport at 5am this morning and it was 17 degrees. Flew into Canberra and at 10am it was 5 degrees.

Glad we got the 4pm game not 7:30pm on a Saturday

I thought we liked the cold.

I heard or read the eels have a better record at night games coz it's cooler.

Bewilders me still to play Nth Qld in Darwin

 

[Happy MEel]

You’d have to think that RCG and Matto in particular are going to rip in as they are potentially playing for an origin spot.

 

[Gronk]

If we are contenders and not pretenders we steam roll them. We are full strength basicaly

I’m just to at your use of the word “we”, as the Eels are clearly your second favourite team.

Otherwise I’m not going bother with your weekly pre-game trolling, very used to that.

 

[hindy111]

So you no longer rate the Sharks….

I don't think they can win it. I only see the top 2. Parra and Roosters some chance. Penrith did crush them but I felt Roosters where only a try or two away from being competetive.

Sharks did have injuries against Canberra but still.

 

[hindy111]

Yep, that's how it works. If you don't thrash every team when you are at near full strength, even if playing away, you win the comp. Those mumpty Panthers couldn't even beat us and they were at home. They're f**ked.

Two contenders. Who are Canberra? A middle of table team at best without their star spine hooker

[hindy111]

Ffs we will beat Canberra. We are superior.

 

[hindy111]

Pou is a moron for taking raiders.....

Did anyone else get on Miks bet at 10-1 Golden state warriors?
I caused half of mine out so pocketed $500. Will win another $500 if they take it out. But would of won $1500 Had I not cashed out.
I figure $500 in pocket and maybe $1,000 is still ok.

 

[Gronk]

Throw me a gif

The Panthers are $1.18 favourites this week vs the Cows who are blowing out to $5 plus.

If Penrith don't put 40 on them then they are flat track bullies.

How'd I do ?

But if we lose or fail to thrash Canberra, we are not contenders, right? So when the Panthers lost to us, they lost to a non-contender.

Still a f**kwit. Perhaps an even bigger one after that comment.

I'd be concerned yes. We just beat a Manly side without Turbo with 12 men.
I'd question our form for sure. Beaten by Roosters, Tigers, flooged by cowboys. Personaly if Manly didn't loose Tom and 12 men I doubt we win.

We have beaten Knights, Penrith and Manly in our last 6. Prior just beat the Titans. Not a convincing win. And yes if it wasn't for that last minute win against Manly we'd be 2/6.

The Penrith win is what give me a lot of hope tbh. Had we lost that I would almost rode us off.

So yes if we lost to Canberra it would mean we've lost 4/7 and lucky not to be 5/7

 

[Soren Lorenson]

We just beat a Manly side without Turbo with 12 men.

Turbo played. 15 runs for 163m and a linebreak. Good performance before his body failed him again.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Don't take your insomnia cranky shit out on me merkin.

It's poor form to mention a poster's medical history.
