wow, he sounds like a total dumb ass, how embarrassing. 2 More years of that. I think the Eels will get hammered this week against a team that has a lot to play for and they are away from home. Couldnt even win at home against a team that is poor at best. Broncos by 24. Lol BA is not a coach. A great coach like Wayne Bennett, you would still take serious, even when he doesn't talk. Parra a chance this weekend, but only because the Broncos are not one of the top sides. I hope Parra win one more game before the finals. Losing 3 in a row would set them up for a certain failed finals campaign. |

I hope the Eels win there last 2 games of the regular season, I just dont think they will. I think they will go into the playoffs with 3 straight loses and then bow out first week. They are not coached well enough, simple as that.

They are not coached well enough, simple as that. I think they'll win one of their last two and then get smashed in the finals. Good chance at beating the Broncos, but Manly will beat Parra. If Parra play to their best on Friday, they'll beat the Broncos. Eels by 4 |

glad to see you have some confidence. I cant say that i do. This game is huge for the Broncos. Thursdays game was huge for the Eels and look how they played.
I still think Broncos by 24.

Broncos by 24 is a massive win. I think Parra will be in this contest, but could be a Broncos win due to the home ground advantage. I'm still thinking Eels. If Parra can win the forward battle, they'll win because their backline is better. |

The Eels do have a good backline, the forwards just dont build a platform for them. Good to see Furguson is back this week.
The Broncos have a lot more to play for and they are at home. On the other hand we know how bad the Eels are away from home. I still think Broncos by 24.

So disappointing to make a lot of ground or be given a penalty to then lose the ball not far from the try line. Mistakes do happen, can't prevent them all, but Parra need a better skills coach. Obviously another area, BA is not familiar with. |

Look at how the players respond to Wayne Bennett. Won't see that with BA.

I hope the Eels play mistake free football as well and finally learn how to play for 80 mins? Wouldnt you think that if BA was a good coach the team would have learned to play for 80 mins by now? If they can do those 2 things I might get a huge shock and see 2 wins, rather than the 2 losses I predict. Broncos by 18

Could make a Grand Final based on their ability to lift the team on game day. Parra do have some decent players, they just need the self belief. Eels by 4. Bounce back after a terrible performance against the Bulldogs. |

Imsy be very wrong, but I dont think the Eels have a hope in hell of winning this game. Remember the last time the Eels played in Brisbane, it wasnt pretty. This will not be as bad because the Broncos are not a great team this year.
Broncos by 18

They were due for a loss and hopefully that is now out of their system. Once again, we'll know after the first 20 minutes, how they'll go. |

Disappointing finish!! Fifita carved Parra up which set up the winning field goal. Mitchell Moses had a quiet game and his goal kicking was ordinary. Parra did well to comeback and take the game into extra time, but couldn't pull off what would have been the best win of the season. Eels needed more offloads (second phase play). Their metres gained was impressive, but a lot of one out.
Eels can throw the last game against Manly and now just prepare for the finals, unless the Sharks beat the Raiders. Can't believe I want Ricky Stuart to win.

I dont think you can ever blame a goalkicker. The Eels simply made too many mistakes and gave away too many penalties. The Broncos were the better team and deserved to win. Credit to the Eels for hanging in there. Kane Evans has really come on great this season. He was pathetic last season. What a sensational try by Ferguson.
I cant believe it that I am going for the Raiders as well.
