Would we have beaten Canberra tonight?

Had we lost to Melbourne last week, we would have versed Canberra tonight. My question is, do we believe we would have beaten Canberra had we taken them on tonight? Of course we would never know and hindsight past our game last night and theirs tonight cannot be judged but it is something i thought about, could we have been like Melbourne and been knocked out tonight?

  • Yep no problem. It was the Storm who are cooked and have been for a few weeks now. They gifted the Raiders some very, very soft tries and cheap turnovers. 
    We'll beat the Raiders next week. Fairly comprehensively too. 

  • Nope

  • No. We played too conservative. Panthers also seemed a bit like that in the first half but obviously have a bit more strike power and playmaking accross the park and eventually found their groove. Then there are things such as;our Hooker doesn't run enough from dummy half which is a big disadvantage. Why the cosch doesn't coach him to run more is beyond me.

  • No we could not have beaten Canberra tonight, due to the fact that we could never have versed Canberra tonight. If we lost last week we could not vs canberra

    • Damn this comment is weird on so many levels 

      • Lol

  • Yes, them and after watching sharks verse cowgirls we would flog either of them as well. The grand final will be Panthers, Eels and who wins out of Souths and Roosters, 1 of those 3 will play in the finals and be premiers. 

  • Easily, LB. 

    Really can't under estimate playing the best team, and best defensive team, of the past two seasons at their home ground in a final.

    A completely different mindset and game.

    Storm & Raiders was free flowing & believe we would've won it easily, Panthers is a grind & you cannot beat them without your best player for 30mins.

    We'd played pretty poorly for 50mins and were down by 5 when Moses went off. That game was far from over if he doesn't. 

  • Depends which Eels team turned up and which Waqa.

  • In my opinion on our 2nd half performance on Friday all 7 other teams would have beat us.
