Paulo standoff with Eels

AI Team we think it will be....Yes a Team List

AI Team we think it will be....Yes a Team List

I had a long discussion with AI (Chat Box) over this and this is what came out. I like the format the actual discussion will I am sure raise the ire of many. 1EE EXCLUSIVE: The 2027 Parramatta Eels 22-Player Squad PlatformThe Starting Side (1–13)1. Isaiah Iongi (Fullback): A dynamic, lightning-quick young fullback built to inject raw speed and modern ball-playing options from the back.2. Josh Addo-Carr (Winger): A premier, established Test-level speedster brought in to score tries and provide…

Eels not happy Paulo is playing for Samoa.

So this apparently is a thorn in the contract negotiations and is leading to some bitterness between the parties.Begs the question. If his knee is chronic, is us even giving him $650k for one season even worth it. The value we see with Junz is experience. But that experience we want on the field too. We have a lot of good young middles, Junz is valuable to them. But as well when on the field he is.How many more games does Junz miss with this issue? Added to that is the fact he is already rested…

Would Blaize Talagi be a worthy investment for Parramatta?

Former Eels junior Blaize Talagi is at a cross roads in his career. Upon debuting for the Eels in 2024 as a 19 year old, he would go on to play 19 games in his rookie season, playing Fullback, Wing, Centre and Five-Eighth. Talagi had an option in his favour for 2025, upon which he turned down for a chance to partner Nathan Cleary at Penrith. Sounded like a sweet deal, go to the best organisation in Australian sport to hone your craft alongside a future immortal.Issue is, it has not been all…

Parra high level talks with Ex Super League Boss

 EX-SUPER LEAGUE BOSS IN TALKS TO JOIN PARRAMATTA Former St Helens boss Mike Rush has emerged as a leading candidate to join Parramatta in a senior position. It is understood Rush has held high level talks with the Eels about relocating to Australia with Parramatta on the lookout for a new chief executive after Jim Sarantinos finished last week. Rush spent 27 years at St Helens including 13 as chief executive before stepping down from his post in February.  

Strong chance Blaize comes back home

Now rumors and reports saying eels are chasing Blaize now who is set to hit open market November 1 and will most likely be squeezed out to make way for more resignings.Now ryda has got a first grade game under his belt and possibly will get more next year and beyond.Is it enough to get Blaize back home.Personally wouldn't mind it as he ll be solid coverage anywhere and with experience next to clez could benifit us.

Coaching Mark Rusell's appointment and Ryles Coaching Shake Up

This information is google research with an AI construct. Yes, Mark Russell’s appointment is the focal point of a wider coaching shake-up at the Parramatta Eels heading into the 2027 season.  Mark Russell has built a highly respected resume over more than a decade coaching across elite NRL pathways and high-performance systems. Known for a disciplined, defensively minded approach and exceptional player development, his coaching record is highlighted by championship success in the lower…

Finals attendance figures

The NRL must be stocked with the attendance this weekend... 28k on Friday, 26k in Auckland, 17k last night and plenty of empty seats for today's game. And that's despite most of the stadiums holding much larger numbers.With Souths now gone, and Newcastle without a home game, there are no other clubs that will pull big numbers. Imagine a finals series with Parra, Canterbury, St George, Souths, Brisbane, Newcastle, Wests.

Liam Martin and Jacob Preston

On NRL360 last night Braith Anasta stated that Liam Martin had given Penrith until 25 August to start negotiations and sort out his future. It was also stated that Martin is looking at a $1 million paycheck.  Now I doubt Penrith are in a position to offer such cash for Martin with the likes of Yeo and Cleary yet to put pen to paper and the Chiefs and Bears circling being cashed up.  Anasta also said that the Dogs had offered Jacob Preston a 3 year deal worth $1.9 million or as was put $630K a…

Just before this Lillee and co had debarked to Packer's World Cricket.So Hoggie was picked to play in the home series against the Poms and then take on the Pakistanis in the summer of 78-79.The games purists were as shocked…
