Is it me or does it feel like everyone has written parra off for this grand final?
-Everyone ive talked to tips melbourne.I prefer it this way but suprised most people views seem so one sided.
So how would you like to see parra win it?

Burt kicks winning field goal
Finch throws intercept pass to Grothe who goes length of field
Hindy makes try saving tackle in dying minutes:crazy::crazy::crazy:
Hayne scores Great individual try

Haha aslong as Finch doesnt do something great for melb to win it-That would hurt---

41-0

Pretty much. It's all good for us. Tipping the Storm is the easy option really. 4th GF in a row, won their two finals games without raising a sweat... they deserve favouritism. That won't win them the game.

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

My heart says Parra, head says Melbourne. But if I supported another team, I wouldnt put money on Melbourne winning because we are a f**king good side right now.

 

[Parraren]

We are massive underdogs.

The stage is set...

 

[eels bloke]

I was drawn into calling a winner tonight..... put on the spot so to speak. Out of my mouth without thought or process were the words "parra by sixteen", rolled straight off the tongue.

 

[The EELiminator]

they can pump up the storm all they like they start the game on zero points same as us

LOL talking about seige mentality and trying to make the underdog tag a massivge one. If you look at every bit of media you'll see there's plenty of people picking Parra. Sure there might be a few more picking the Mexicans but there's still a plenty picking your mob. But keep up withn your woe is me nobody thinks we can win rubbish :lol:

celebrity tipsters may be picking parra but most of the league commentators and analysts ive seen are all going for the storm

 

[natheel]

with players that arnt in the finals its actually very even

Morris Bros - Melb
Prince - Parra (b4 finals) Melb Now
Thurston - Melb but didnt seem 100%
Farah - Parra
Dell - Melb
Fat - Melb but had money on parra
Voss - Melb
Sterlo - Parra
Lockyer - Parra
Menzies - Parra
Hazam - Parra
Barrett - Parra
ET - Melb

thats all i can remember from footy show

all players that picked melbourne said u cant ignore the momentum that parra have going into the gf except Jmorris he picked melbourne easily (bitter?)

Prince and Fatty i counted as undecided coz prince picked parra before the finals and fatty has money on parra to win

so as it stands its

Tips for Melb - 6
Tips for Parra - 6
Undecided/unsure - 2

Pretty even, i usually like to take tips from players that tip because they have played both sides and know what each side is capable of.

PLUS every BIG tip vossy has tipped this year in regards to Melbourne hes got wrong

Miss the 8 - wrong
Struggle in Early Rounds - Wrong
Win GF?????? yet to see

Go on League HQ where they have a video with about 6-8 journos tipping who they think will win, it's pretty much split 50/50. That's just one example, let us know if you need more and i'll point them out where you can find them. Not to mention Joey johns picked the Eels as well, like i said i've seen plenty picking them. You blokes probably don't want to acknowledge it becasue you're thriving on the underdog tag and seige mentality thing.

hayne should return serve, and request bellamy pick him at no1 for NSW if he does

 

[natheel]

nah hayne will keep quiet and if he has a blinder in the final then during next week he will have something to say

 

[Eelectrica]

I don't blame people for writing us off. I know plenty of people who would like us to win but don't think we can.
We have to prove people wrong just one more time.

 

[Ziggy the God]

That is great that they are all tipping the Storm.

Less pressure on the Eels, and when they WIN, it will be even sweeter.

Go you mighty Eels, you deserve it, and you will get it!

Cheers

spot on parraboy. slaters quick enough for the wing

 

[jono]

I just got a new mobile phone , and the first thing I did was put a reminder on the calendar for every day for the next 12 months-
"EELS NRL PREMIERS 2009"
The vibe now >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>2001!

 

[Kornstar]

Melbourne deserve to be favourite, without a doubt!

Most people would be reluctant to pick us because they know the Eels have a habit of saving their worst game for last.

If we turn up and play like we have, we are a MASSIVE chance, you cannot ignore our form but i think there are too many games from the last 11 years that would sit in the "experts" minds where we should have turned up but haven't.

If we lose tomorrow i am confident it won't be because we didn't turn up, it will be because Melbourne just happened to be better on the day!
