Grand final this weekend
Im guessing most will think Penrith win, but I would be surprised if many supporting them in the game.
Interestingly given no real supporters of either side..not as much interest either.
I will support the blue and yellow of Parramatta..just hope the good Parra turns up
-
I'm going. I'm taking the kids. My youngest is a Penrith supporter so he will be stoked when he finds out he's going.
I myself will be cheering on Parra (still so pissed the Cowboys couldn't get up)
But i do not expect them to win unless they can offload the ball a lot. Penrith's game style is perfect for this type of game. And they are unflappable, they stick to that structure no matter what.
Parra need huge shifts from their forwards, Moses to kick well, and then someone to break the game open out wider. And as i said, offload the ball.
-
@mariner4life a little worried about a couple of the Eels forwards being exploited by the Panthers halves. I think they’ve got the offload game in them, just that Panthers are better than most in crowding the tackle. So if they do get it off there are potential opportunities, but it’s a tough ask.
-
Lane and Papali'i and Paulo have a good offloading game, Lane especially is running good lines too.
Moses and Brown need to be on their game for Parra to stay in this.
For me Parra need to keep hitting up their big men, running good lines to smash Penrith., cant be passive just looking for space against the riff otherwise you will get hit from everywhere

I dont watch a great deal of league but I'm looking forward to this. Wife's whole family are Parra supporters, her dad grew up in Blacktown. Got a decent crew of them organised to watch this together, and a prime table booked at the Palm Beach RSL for a 6.30pm start.
Let's go Eels!!!

Go the Panthers! Read something funny today in 86 when the Eels last won their last premiership and Top Gun was the highest grossing film on the year the other one was that neighbours premiered in 86 and ended this year.
I've made worse bets on shakier omens
Did you win?

I first got involved following sydney league ( it was all in sydney then ) back when Parra were a powerhouse ,
Even though I was a Manly supporter , I loved watching that Parra side full of superstars ,
Price , Sterling , Kenny , Steve Ella , Mick Cronin , Eric Grothe , it was an exciting team to watch
its been so long for them , and as well as being underdogs , Im going for Parra but expect Penrith to win
