Everyone says we're the team with all the 'pressure on', but doesn't Parra realise that if they lose, they're gone? :D

Good First half from the storm....Second half was ordinary.

Lucky for them that they weren't up against a more in form team or there may have been an upset on the cards.

Inclusions of White and Inglis will help come Prelims..

Sign of a good team when you struggle and still get up.

Worst game of the round it was!!!!

The Doggies and Raiders game was better even with the million mistakes, but they have the excuse of the shocking weather.

Disappointed! I really wanted Parramatta to win and then win again next week... Could you imagine a Parramatta V Bulldogs Prelim final??? HUGE!

Sorry to burst your bubble LF, but Dogs will lose to Knights when they face them. :D

Yeah I wish I went to the Collingwood v Footscray game instead. Did just barely enough to win. But it's good to play average and win, treat it like a loss, and bounce back with renewed vigour next time.

I went and while it wasn't a great game spectacle wise, it was seriously heart-in-mouth stuff at the end. Delaney's run ended right where I was sitting.
Great atmosphere, but just a little subdued. I think everyone knew Parra turned up to play and wouldn't surrender meekly.
The video of Scott Hill after the game was terrific. :thumbsu:

Could understand if some AFL fans were a little bored. Hell, even I was. Storm was awful. Should've won by 30+ to prove they were back.

Sad to say that they will be hammered into the ground in a fortnight's time.
