Has mahalia Murphy and eels parted ways?

Read somewhere on Facebook a post on insta where Murphy has basically said she has left the eels, something around injury management? Has anyone else heard or read this? Not sure how I feel if the case, the squad does need a refresh, but she is a leader there so maybe a loss? We do however have some really good women coming through the grades so maybe it is a bleed the youth policy in the ladies now as well as the men's team?

Who is our Lock in 2027 and beyond.

Starting 2026, Jack de Belin was signed from St. George Illawarra to be an experienced middle in our squad, particularly at Lock where he can be a link man workhorse. J'maine Hopgood was our starting Lock before that, however he was moved to Prop in 2025 to simplify his role in order to get form back. He ended 2025 postively, leading to de Belin's signing being understoof as Hopgood would be starting at Prop for the season. Issue is, de Belin showed very early on he was washed and regressing,…

moses to be 7 in world up now?

I was kinda hoping moses would not play world cup so he could focus on the eels and not be a risk injury wise, but alas, with Cleary out of action now, surely moses is a walk up start to the 7 jersey. Lets just hope he stays injury free, and will also come back later into pre-season trianing. i know im being selfish here, i should be saying good luck and well done, but i just know he will pick up an injury and be out at the start of next season as a result. 

The coach we should have got?

Is that Holbrook, I mean what he has done there, he was in the mix at the eels.... Look, I like ryles, and think he will succeed at the eels, but can't help thinking what could have been if we had got him. 

Pay best whatever the fuck he wants

I'll chop my limbs ribs fingers off GET HIM TO EELS.He said in a presser he cares about his family and wants to take care of them.Thtow the cheque book and his fcken coming.Knights can't match the mill.

A curse is gonna be broken wow

Knights outside the 8 and chooks conceded 50 wow

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…
