Hello Parra fans

Who believes that playing at telstra is more fair for bulldogs than Parra. We win and they get home gound advantage.

If we do win we have to go to melbourne and play them there.

if we win were are we going to play in the WACA !!!!!!!!!!!!!

NRL WAKE UP Give PARRA A chance.

So we are Playing the WA Reds in the Grand Final. Nice.

As I have stated more than once. they are 4 from 11 (that means they have lost 7 home games this year). So I would be happy for them to feel nice and at home.

If we beat the Bulldogs we go to Melbourne. Do you want that one moved as well?

Not necessarily a home field advantage when the Bunnies and Tigers also play from the same venue and up until this year the finals have been played there since it opened. Their home record this year is pretty ordinary as well.

It was always going to be either Telstra or the SFS as the second week involved the home region finals.

And if Parra fans are serious we should have as many fans there as they do..... hell I'm driving from Moree on Friday night to be there.

The GF's at Telstra - think of it as good practice ;-)


I see what you mean, but i think as long as there are thousands of Parra fans there in full song, then Telstra is a good venue for the game.
At Parra or at the SFS there's always a chance we may have missed out on tickets. Which would have broken my heart to play 3 Semi's in '07 and not have been able to attend any of them (if we went NZ, SFS, Melb)

To win the premiership, your most likley have to go through the storm to do so, id rather face them coming off having the week off than playing them in the grand final.

as far as saturday goes, it could be much worse, if we lost we would have had to go to townsville, id much prefer to take the dogs on here in sydney.

Yeah! At least we can get along and support the team in Sydney.


The whole playing at Telstra thing just highlights how silly the 'home city final' thing is, especially when you have so many clubs playing out of one city!

Having said that, it should be a great atmosphere, big crowd, and we're playing a team full of slow backs who can't tackle. If we can get on top of their starting forwards (their benchies are trash) then we really should dominate.

No advantage to either team.

To think its a home ground advantage is stupid.

Canterbury have had a shocking record this year playing at that ground.

Lets all just pretned we are 3 yrs back and there are NO home/regional/[whatever] grounds .... pretned its the old system with only SFS and Telstra in use - chances are we'd be at Telstra anyway

No, it would be at the SFS, sold out already and everyone bitching that it wasnt at telstra, and calling the NRL inflexible for not moving it to a bigger venue
