Josh Addo-Carr faces 12-match NRL ban and Eels sacking after positive drug test

Hooker dilemma 2027: Smith or Edwards

Hooker dilemma 2027: Smith or Edwards

During the off-season i am looking at various positions some questions around them. I started with Lock, now onto Hooker.Coming into 2026, Ryley Smith had the clear running, based on 2025 form, to start in 2026. Tallyn Da Silva, upon his move from the Wests Tigers, was still finding his feet while learning to be an 80 minute Hooker. When Da Silva was signed, the thought process from many here was "We have Smith". Then the realisation was could we see a Grant/Smith combo that Melbourne had for…

Josh Addo-Carr faces 12-match NRL ban and Eels sacking after positive drug test

Josh Addo-Carr is facing at least three months on the sidelines should any club throw him a lifeline following his recent roadside drug test failure. Addo-Carr’s camp is still awaiting formal notification of his B-test sample after he tested positive for cocaine in September. The NRL and the Eels will wait on that result before any sanction is handed down. While Parramatta are yet to make a formal decision on Addo-Carr’s future, it is highly likely that the Eels will reluctantly sack the flying…

3 months for addocizzy

addocarr facing three month ban.Just sack him off now fmd.But expect us to be in the market way harder now cause simmo always injured.

Will Penisini??? No contract. For real???

 “Will Penisini - Cronulla SharksWill Penisini is yet to ink a new deal with Parramatta for the 2027 season and beyond, but a centre of his stature and potential will no doubtedly remain in the NRL if the Eels do not secure his services.Still only 24-years-old, the Tongan international would fit right into the backline of Cronulla Sharks after the departure of long-tenured centre Jess Ramien.With Michael Gabrael not yet experienced at first grade level with just one game under his belt,…

Jack howarth will be a eel in 2028?

Adrain prizekeno pretty much confirmed we signed howarths brother. He also said storm have offered howarth a three year extension and he rejected it 👀.Very interesting,I think his coming eels 2028 and another thing he spoke about is Bradman best.Who feels like his been lowballed and knights are only offering 700k which is 50k less then his on going into next year and were reportedly offering 850k with possobly ratchet clauses.Thoughts?

Howarth to Parramatta

Getting some messages that the Parramatta Eels have apparently signed Queensland u19s representative Frank Howarth.  Younger brother of Jack Howarth and shows a lot of promise. Big bodied second rower who is certainly going to be an Nrl player in the future.  Could this mean both the Howarth boys are coming to Parra?Also a 1ee member mentioned it a week ago. Trent from the cupboard house of il repute.

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…

Remember Rodney Hogg

Rodney was a late arrival to Test cricket at age 27. Born in Victoria he was overlooked by state selectors and moved to Adelaide to find an earlier path to Shield.He was selected and within a year he was noticed by Alan Davidson who mentioned his name to National Selectors. 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…
