[TheParraboy]

Which were the top 4 in the season proper

Friday 750pm Penrith v Storm
Saturday 750pm Broncos v Warriors

Took Webster just one season to get the Warriors to a prelim.

Baldy took what 9 years.

 

[TheParraboy]

There will be a ton of support for the Warriors at Suncorp

Lot of kiwis there, Plus fans of other club who want ponys to lose who will be there
eg hineyrulz will get his throat nice and hydrated

When Warriors played Parra at Commbank, the noise and chanting from their fans was insane, the best ive heard from opposing fans.

But he walked into an average squad......hold on wait

 

[Parra Pride]

Hopefully the Warriors go all the way, if they don’t make it hopefully a meteor hits the ground on Grand Final day.

Cheering on Penrith and Warriors.

Expect Penrith will win by a solid margin, and Warriors v Broncos to be close.

I think both prelims will be blowouts.... hope I'm wrong....

Pure luck, plus the Warriors are a powerful rich club like Manly and the Sharks with heaps of resources.

I would argue some of the week 2 finals sides that we had were better than this Warriors team on paper. Actually our 2023 side at full strength is better than this Warriors side.

Yeah mate we have been unlucky in previous years to get shafted with the draw or circumstance in finals.

Losing a whole backline in 2020 in the week leading in.

2021 we got deadset got dudded by Ashley Klein. Like I reckon we probably make the GF that year if we won that match.

Reinforces what a waste this year was.

I said in the rumours thread and some knucklehead was carrying on.

That it's a weak top 8 this year. Sides have got there with inferior rosters off soft draws.

But would our full strength side play as co-ordinated and smart as the Warriors side play? My money's on no...

See I think they have it in them.

They just don't have the ruthless mentality to do it for 24 weeks.

It's like we have this mindset last 2 years to cruise through the season and wait for September but this year September never came.

I look at Souths and Penrith wins this year on the road. Both teams on top of ladder flying we were coming off 2 losses in a row in shitty form. And not only aim up and play smart but bash and flog them.

Nice to see the Warriors doing well, they've had a pretty tough line of late, with Covid and living in a bubble yet they just got on with it

The warriors game should be 4pm.

Instead it's 9:50pm in NZ when kick off is on.

Another reason channel 9 is a joke. Who would have demanded a 7:50pm kick off.

Took Payten 2 seasons and now they suck again!

Atleast make it 6pm but oh no not the news....

well 36 years of experience at the top level wasn't enough to get a side to the top 8...

he must also suck.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Shame it cant be a Broncos Warriors GF, didnt want Penrith or Storm in the GF again but thats how it is.

Broncos/ Warriors should be a good game but Broncos might just get them. Penrith should be too good for Storm and based on what I saw last Friday, Storm are no chance of knocking off Penrith, but still you never know.

Can you organise the meteor about 15 min after FT whistle? Will be great to land when celebrations/speeches are being conducted, and ill be at least 15min away, if not longer...

I was thinking a time machine like Doc Brown & Marty McFly so we can fast forward 30 years to GF day 2053 when Parramatta break a year 67 premiership drought.

Jake Arthur will have taken over as coach from Brad by then & with his GF experience from last year learning from the mistakes his father made will get the lads on a team bus together and we will beat Chinboy junior in the GF.
