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.
"We should not of agreed to his release in the first place. You just watch parra get dudded now the nrl steps on.
V'landys is full of shit pokes his chest out threatning 10 year bans blah blah blah. He's full of hot air. "
"I'm well aware the Eels dont want him but logically its they are the only 2 scenarios that make sense unless the biased NRL come in and screw us over like usual"
"Eels don't want him, he's burned that bridge and club has already moved forward with players they trust. He'll end up in Melbourne but we should at least get Howarth out of it "
"The NRL by rights should tell Lomax to head back to Sydney and commence training with Parra if not sit out for the next few years. Seems like Melbourne have gone running and sooking to the NRL to get what they want"

Yes I think even the NRL know we need our Cinderella story too

I hope the football gods shine down on us . We deserve this . Sometimes in life things eventually come to you . Our time is here .
