The run home.

[Chipmunk]

We won't lose in week 1 if we play the Roosters!!

Because our record agaisnt the Roosters at Allianz is so awesome of course we will win.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Just as long as we don't play Kenny Edwards at 9 we'll be okay.

 

[Chipmunk]

I dislike the idea of planning for a loss. 3rd presents us the best chance of a win whilst still getting the second bite, so I'm hoping for 3rd.

I'd be more confident of beating a team we've already beaten at their home ground this season (Storm) than i would be of beating a team that generally puts 50 on us at their Home Ground (Roosters).

Didn't have alot to do with them almost puting 50 on us earlier this year.

Lol.

We haven't beaten Melbourne at home. We've beaten their reserve grade side.

A semi in front of 20k+ Eels fans at the SFS is far preferable to one in front of 15 Eels fans and some blokes who thought they were going to the AFL at AAMI Park. Anything else is bullshit.

I can't see us beating the Roosters at Allianz, if we finish 4th or 5th we more than likely don't have to beat the Storm to make the GF.

We won't beat the Storm anywhere and it's unlikely either will anyone else.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

The second chance is far more valuable than "oh we have to play the Storm in Melbourne"...fmd

Don't be so negative !! Our record of making finals hasn't been that awesome recently either ............

 

[Joshuatheeel]

We won't beat the Storm anywhere and it's unlikely either will anyone else.

Of course!!

However, the Storm were even money or hot favourites in their last final games in 2011, 2013, 2015 and 2016 (3 were in Melbourne), they choked each time (yeah last year probably wasn't a choke but look at the other 3 finals).

Storm do know how to f**k up a finals match !!!

 

[strider]

And I got on us @ 23-1 so f**k you lot.

And i got on at 19 ... so not f**k you lot as much as loser baby, but f**k you lot a bit

 

[strider]

The second chance is far more valuable than "oh we have to play the Storm in Melbourne"...fmd

But what if we whip one out of our ass week 1 of the semis and those f**kers a damn good thrashing? ... suddenly we are all buying tickets to the world club challenge

 

[Bazal]

You get a second chance for finishing third too fmd.

It's out of our control anyway (and we still have to beat Souffs) but I reckon anyone who would prefer to go to Melbourne than go to the SFS has a skull full of manure

Yeah guarantees two finals in sydney playing the roosters at SFS.

There will be more than likely 20k parra fans at sfs compared to the roosters 12k.

 

[T.S Quint]

Of course!!

Storm do know how to f**k up a finals match !!!

They also know how to win plenty of them too.
I guess you are able to have both when you get to play so many Finals games.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Cowboys probably need to win to make the 8.!! Good for us!!

 

[Bazal]

Top four looking good and third is a real possibility...a desperate Cowboys side playing a Broncos side that's got a history of losing big games to the Cowboys and who will be scratching their heads a bit after Thursday, Souths with absolutely nothing to play for and off the back of a real belting and all we need is to win by any margin to guarantee fourth...

Obviously the Broncos/Cows result is out of our hands but if we can't get up for this game the boys should be beaten with hoses.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

The Cowboys could make the eight if they lose but to guarantee it they need to win.

 

[emjaycee]

I mentioned this earlier in the season but may as well say it here again now we are definitely in the 8.
We currently hold the record for the longest streak without losing a finals game of all the top 8 teams.

Whoohoo.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

So which of you merkins are coming to Melbourne if we finish fourth?

 

[strider]

Do we know what day its likely to be on?
