I'd like to know who the half-back is, because if he goes better than Troy Dargain he's a fair player.
Set your Foxtel to record tomorrow Wednesday May 22 - the Fox Sports broadcast of the National Final between the Eels and Norths Devils starts at 4pm!
Also congrats to Glen Vanderwert our HM's manager who has also been appointed to the manager role of the state team. He has been manager of the Eels SG Ball team for about a thousand years and really deserves this appointment. A highly competent and selfless volunteer.

Great news for our Junior Rep Side - four Pirtek Parramatta Eels Harold Matthews Cup players have been selected for the NSW Under 16s team!
Michael Doolan, SImon Fonua, Mark Griffiths and Joey Tramontana have all been selected into the side that will play the Queensland Under 16s side at ANZ Stadium on June 5, prior to the first State of Origin match.
Congratulations to the four boys - the Eels have had more players selected than any other Junior Rep club.
Also a big congratulations to Glen Vanderwert, who has been selected as the team Manager - Glen was the manager of the very successful Harold Matthews Cup premiership winning side.
The boys go into camp the first week of June - we'll be watching them closely during that time and will keep the updates coming.
And don't forget to set your Foxtel to record this Wednesday May 22 - the Fox Sports broadcast of the National Final between the Eels and Norths Devils starts at 4pm!
