NRL Round 17, 2016: Cronulla Sutherland Sharks vs Parramatta Eels, Saturday 2nd July 7.30 @ Southern Cross Group Stadium

[Thresher]

Damn you guys must have de-bumped the price: $3.65 and $3.75 is what I'm seeing

Manly at $5.75 versus Cows is slightly interesting

Bookies must know Norman is going to go over there to try and coax him back, only for Norman to also backflip and go to French Union as well.

After 11 wins, mental tiredness has to set in sooner or later. It's pretty hard in the NRL to get up physically and emotionally week in and week out. We beat the Warriors, due to some gutsy defence at the end of the game to keep them pinned down in their territory. Not saying we are going to lose this week, but you sense that the gas lamp has to flicker at some stage. If Parra come out firing, I think it could be tough for us. Hate losing at any time, but you would rather lose a few now, than go into the finals losing your last couple of games.

My sportsbet account doesn't work and William Hill won't let me bet more than $72 on the eels at $3.75... WTF?

The winning streak will continue against Parra. They are in a world of pain and reading the papers today, it sounds as if Semi is going to do a runner. I'm curious to find out the ins and outs of why though.

Hope you are right Cranky, and that this one won't be the one we come out looking flat. Would love to get a record winning streak of at least 12!

While roosters and manly are going like busteds and parra are imploding, it's good for us just cruising along out of the spotlight.. Has the parra debacle been referred to as semi-gate yet cause it seems like it should be about that time.

 

[vicsharkfan]

Newy $8 to beat raiders.

 

[Thresher]

got a feeling that if I went a nifty on every roughie next round I might come out in front

Despite all the bull**** that Parra are going through (I'm loving it by the way, I loathe that club) they just keep on turning up and playing well. A huge test for us this week, because let's face it, despite the results, we haven't been at our best. I think we'll win, but we are in for another tight one, Parra will push us all the way and every bit of chance to snag a win against us. 16-14 to us.

Wouldn't suprise me if the NRL this week whipps out the mythical war chest to keep Semi.

NRL currently has a massive hard on for Parra and doesn't like seeing them hurt.

Imagine the media if they havnt already will go for the jugular of Greenberg for letting him play for Australia then he walks away, still think a lot of this is driving by his manager wonder if the NRL can or will blacklist any dealings with him?

 

[Gards]

We will win 24-20

Much harder to win a game than throw one. I'd back the opposition if Manly was $1.01

We have a target on our chest every game now. Sides who have checked out for the season will lift against the premiership leaders to salvage something from the season. If we can get through this fire before the semis we will be hard as nails for some real tough games. Signs are that the team is building a resilience that will be a massive strength later in the year. Few sides run away with a GF, its normally a grind and we are getting ready for it now.

 

[BlackWhiteBlue]

We will almost certainly drop the game vs penrith.

I hope we can smoke parra on saturday which will all but end their season

'Aussie' Semi...
