The run home

[T.S Quint]

Or the Dogs lose to the Rabbits and Titans.

Which would mean Parra would need to win both the Knights and Raiders games, and pending other results could see the Dogs drop out of the eight

Warriors losing is step one.
Now we just need to win our last 2 to stay in front of them.

 

[eels_fan]

Main thing is it's in our hands now, we don't need any results to go our away etc.

That's it. It's up to us to get the job done or stuff it up. There are no excuses now.

 

[Bandwagon]

Dragons win today means one of either the Broncos or Dragons will be on 28 points end of next round.

 

[The Phelan Folly]

Its OK - I've done the ladder predictor thingy.
As it turns out, we end up 7th on 32 points & beat the Dogs in our 1st Semi.
We then go onto beat the Panthers & Rabbits in the other Semis, before playing the Roosters in the GF.
I haven't bothered to look up who we play in the world club challenge yet as i cant find a predictor for the esl.

That will be good, coz that will make my pre-season prediction come true. Unfortunately, I f**ked up on some other predictions:

Where will we finish: 7th (I'm banking on two clubs being disqualified for cap breaches or just for being f**kheads)
Who will captain the club: A senior leadership group comprising all players over 24 years of age
First grade player of the year: Tanginoa
best forward: Tanginoa
best back: Fui (he's shifting to the wing)
who will we have our best win against: Canberra at home
Highest Try scorer: Fui
1 player who will have a breakthrough year or Most improved: Kenny
predict a player who will have his first grade debut Santi
Rookie of the year: Santi
predict a surprise packet player: A booby trap left outside the turnstiles
clubman of the year: Tim Mannah
give us a headline that involves our club: Hayne out for season after freak coke bottle injury: 'I'd locked myself out of the house' Jarryd Explains
Name a big loss to our club that will be announced next year: Lasalo Eaten by Sandow
as above, but signing: Thurston
name the players who will play rep football on what level: Hayne (NSW) Norman (QLD) Tanginoa (City) Fui (NZ) B Smith ((Metro Cup All Stars)
name a wenty player of the year: Alvaro
name an NYC player of the year: Tepai Moaora

As it turns out, we end up 7th on 32 points & beat the Dogs in our 1st Semi.

Eels v Dogs @ ANZ in the Quarters isn't exactly a bad result for us. If we're 7th or 8th after the regular season finishes, that would be my preferred option.

 

[hineyrulz]

The Dogs are very beatable, we played poorly last week but should still have beaten them.

 

[oldmancraigy]

So you got them all wrong except that we might finish 7th, and the predict a headline one.

You did quite well to predict the headline though!

I did ok on the Kenny prediction too. And Tepai was so good that he was too good to stay in NYC. And Alvaro has been pretty good for Wenty. So not too bad.

You really f**ked up the Fui Factor. Dickhead.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

You really f**ked up the Fui Factor. Dickhead.

I was half-right. I knew he'd get marginalised...I just thought they'd stop when they shifted him to the wing rather than putting him in the grandstand

Fair nuff. He is, apparently, the fastest merkin at the club over 6.25 meters.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Bonus points for correct use of 'comprising', Barry.

 

[Gronk]

As I see it, Rnd 25 will end up like this

 

[oldmancraigy]

Agreed Gronk! But, honestly, I really don't care as long as Parra is on 30 points.

 

[strider]

so ...

need to cheer on:

1. Titans
2. Melbourne .... ewwwwww, makes me shudder

last resort ... Penrith


and get our fingers out next week ... i reckon we can if 1 & 2 go our way

 

[Chipmunk]

Forget it.

If we get a win against the Raiders then so be it.

 

[Bandwagon]

Broncos haven't beat a top eight team away since round 1 against the dogs.

They will lose to the Storm in Melbourne.

You just don't know which warriors side will show up, but if we beat Canberra, I reckon we'll be relying on Penrith to come up with the goods.
