No, a 40 - 50% success rate is not good enough, at present if they make the playoffs they will only be making up the numbers. I can already predict, 1 playoff game 1 loss.

You think top 8, I don't. The second half of the draw is an improvement, because Parra do not play, Storm, Roosters and Rabbitohs. Parra really should make the 8 based on that. Remaining games Raiders - Darwin Tigers - Home Sea Eagles - Away Warriors - Home Dragons - Away Knights - Home Titans - Away Bulldogs - Home Broncos - Away Sea Eagles - Home 6 of those games are against teams that are below Parra on the ladder.

2 games against Manly should be interesting. They would have to be by far the biggest overachievers this season. Hate to say that about the Evil Empire.
The Tigers game isnt really a home game even though it is played at Bankwest.

The Tigers game isnt really a home game even though it is played at Bankwest. Manly have a decent coach, which can make a big difference. Parra should have signed Des Hasler. Game against the Tigers should be a victory. If played at Leichhardt or Campbelltown it would be a certain defeat.

The Tigers have come good, they just beat Souths, that is impressive. I hope the Bankwest advantage works and we beat them well again.
We should have signed Hasler, much better coach than the one we have, mind you that isnt hard. I dont exactly know if there are any good coaches around at present, but surely there is someone out there much better than BA?

I think Parra will beat the Tigers, but you never know which Parra team will turn up. Good win tonight against the Raiders after being down 16-0. I haven't watched the coaches interviews, but I'm sure RS is blaming and whinging instead of questioning his team after they gave up a good lead. BA would be pleased. I'll give BA a night of no criticism, because of a win against a top 4 team.

I actually think, the Raiders were lucky to lose by 6 points. They dominated the Raiders in the second half but should have put more points on the board. I think an 18 point win should have been about right for that game. Yes, RS slammed his team, it was a good laugh, the prick.

It's not just that we played bad, Parramatta didn't let us play well. Crowd was a disgrace, under 6,000. Two top 8 teams.

Yep, the bye - 2 more points and then a run home which looks very winnable unless the wrong Parra team turns up to play. Interesting to see how Parra go against Manly.

The Eels are so unpredictable, Manly on the other hand have been fairly consistent. They are quite surprising how good they have been this year actually. I was hoping they would get the wooden spoon but there is no hope of that happening. I hope we beat them both times. They will both be tough game I think.

Further from last, cant believe Norman made the Qld team. I know he has been playing pretty well for the Dragons, but I dont think he has totally set the world on fire. Bad selection, Qld lose.

I think Parra will beat Manly, even at Brookvale. Should be a great game, two rivals both in the top 8. Can't wait for those two games. QLD are obviously desperate. Norman in the team. That's embarrassing. No more JT, Cam Smith, Billy Slater and Cooper Cronk, so they select Norman. LOL

I would say that 95% of Eels supporters would be happy that Norman is gone, so funny that he goes to the Dragons and makes SOO. Qld are panicking. They sure have lost some great players in the last few years.
I hope you are right about the Eels beating the evil empire. Those 2 wins will go a long way to the Eels making the playoffs.

QLD will lose the series. Game 3 in Sydney and QLD have selected Norman. I could be wrong, but I'm thinking Parra are about to play some really good football every week. They should make the play-off's. I hope I haven't put the mock on them.
