  I agree 100%
  Remember the tactical mistake in 1976!!!
  If you don't then ask an older fan.

  In 2001 i was saying its going to be great to hold that trophy after the game. And look what happened...
  
  This year im waiting and hoping we win. Much different for me this year..

  I have been nervous all week and have resisted the urge to give it to the saints and bulldogs fans for this reason fact is we haven't won anything yet...

  My real concern is how the boys are coping mentally......
  As supporters, Even we feel drained by the last 11 weeks of do or die footy.
  
  Having said that, I am sure DA will have the boys in the right frame of mind. No doubt the boys will know its a massive challenge and will leave nothing in the sheds for this one....
  
  I agree though its a long way from being in the Bag and any thing can happen in the 80 minutes of a GF...The Storm allways come out hard but I doubt the start we gave Newcastle in 2001 will remanifest itself this year.
  
  The Boys are really Hungry for a premiership......so are the Storm!
  
  So long as our defence is solid as has been over the last 11 weeks, we play our natural game and the passes stick then we are a big chance.....
  Go the mighty Eels

  I was reasonably confident until the weather forecast came out, wet weather is not going to suit us at all.
  You are right about the GF experience, as they always say you have to lose one to win one, im afraid that is going to be us this year. The bright side being I think we'll be a red hot chance to take it out next year.

    Slaytanic I agree, wet football the way we have been offloading and throwing it around is a worry, give the storm an inch and they will run with it , i'm damn nervious.

  i agree totally,,,, i for one am ecstatic that they are even there and they have done extremely well to do so but we still have to play the game yet and Melbourne aren't about to stand aside and say there you go haynsey score a couple you deserved it mate and Fui run all over us with one of those great charges, as much as i hate to admit it but we will have to play well to win it despite the storms easy run in to the game.
  
  i will be at the game and i will be chearing for my team and i will be full praise for their efforts over the past 11 weeks.
  
  GO PARRA!!!!!!!!!!!!
