I can't fathom why the Cowboys are favourites. Home ground advantage doesn't exist in a preliminary final and the temperature and humidity will have no bearing it's all bollocks.
Parra are a battle hardened semi final side with plenty of finals experience throughout the squad with a plethora of dissapointment to draw on for inspiration to not let it happen again.
Weve played the Panthers twice in the last couple of months, the Storm and Rabbits giving us a semi final steel.
The Cowboys haven't had the hardened preparation for a title shot and for the most part are bereft of semi final experience. Eels comfortably for mine 28-10 MOM Mahoney finally finding his feet and producing a dominant running game from dummyhalf.
Going against all my inner fears of Parramatta letting us down yet again , I'll say 26 - 0 to us . BAs root and boot fly in fly out approach proving a masterclass .
I am worried about he NRLs desire to have a QLD team in the semi finals however . We could get totally stitched up here just like we did against the Panthers last year .
Quick question, not worth a whole blog...hows everybody's nerves going, ive been picturing big moments and potential results for days now. Need kick off to be here
Nerves are good and expectations are low . Just how an Eels fan should go into these games . It all really hinges on two players , maybe 3 tbh . If they turn up we can win convincingly.
I hope the football gods shine down on us . We deserve this . Sometimes in life things eventually come to you . Our time is here .

Watched Cumberland oval grandstand burn and thought this is unbelievable. Seen all 4 victories and the next one will be significant . Enjoy the night up there 👆

"Pezet had 3 runs, 5 kicks, 2 errors, and 3 try assists. Let's be frank, two of his try assists were fluke kick/regather efforts by others and his try a fluke kick/regather by himself. Ryles played possum about what he has to work on in the press…"
"Naah. JDB and Kelly are good options, but they are here to take the sting and lessen the pressure on younger players with higher potential. They should be alright being jersey 18 and 19 every matchday but it won't hurt their development if they…"
