We have the best record against the Tigers over the last six years, say from 2017, than any other club: winning 10 of the last 12 (83.3%). The next best is against the Dogs (9 of the last 12 at 75%).
But who can forget last year's round-six Easter de
A picture tells a thousand words. The emotion tells us far more.
And so, last night, what a bounce-back win for the Eels against the Panthers in a golden point thriller it was.
Backs to the wall, under pressure, largely written off, and under fire
A grand final rematch, that feels somewhat of an anti-climax after the Eels' dismal 0-3 start; their third-worst start in NRL history. Rightfully so, the Panthers are hot favourites at $1.35 to $3.25. Can the Eels stay in the game and finally find a
No one knew how important the collapse of the Colchester wall, in the summer of 1648 during the English Civil War, would prove for generations of children. Unfortunately, the wall where Humpty Dumpty (the King's cannon) sat, collapsed because of the
Last night was disappointing. Despite some positives, we were rusty in our 16-12 golden-point loss to the Storm. It's time to make amends next week against the heavyweight Sharks.
We also haven't lost two straight in the regular season since 2021 (lo
Tomorrow night it all begins. The 2023 season opener. Can the new Storm ambush the new us, or will we end their 18-year streak continuing our winning ways over them?
It's Time. To create history. Will the Eels finally break the longest drought in NRL history (36 years) or will the Panthers become only the second team to win back to back in NRL history and done only once before this century (Roosters 2018-19)?
Th
The Eels were ultra-impressive in their 40-4 demolition of the Raiders where the Eels played one of their best games of the season, bouncing back from last week's implosion against the Panthers.
But now, they face a daunting challenge.
Up in the swea
The Eels host the maurading Raiders with everything on the line, as the two clubs meet for the first time in a finals series.
Can the Eels break a 13-year hoodoo to progress past week two to a preliminary final (first time since 2009')?
Will Moses pl
The reigning premiers will look to remind the resurgent Eels who Rules The West and prick their bubble. The Eels celebrate Junior's 200th & have had a renaissance of late. Are the Eels the real deal or set to disappoint long-suffering fans yet again?
Round 23 couldn't have been more different for these two clubs if they played on Mercury.
The Eels recorded their biggest win of the season, a 42-6 36-point thumping of the listless Dogs to get their mojo back for two consecutive halves - something t
After yet another largely soul-less 0-26 slaughter at the hands of the rampant Rabbits, some Eels' fans might well be asking, "Can things get much worse?" Clearly, they can. None of us should forget what the Bulldogs (then 16th) did to us on Black Mo
Rabbits look adorably cute. But behind that harmless bunny face - lurks something else. One that has beat us around, and skinned us alive over the last 5 games conceding almost 37ppg; to feed us to the bunny farm.
Friday night's R20 win over the Panthers 34-10 was almost as spectacular a miracle as when Moses last parted the Seas to temporarily free the long-suffering Holy Eels people from their multiple personality team in 2022. Here's some good news and some
Panthers are on top of the mountain. Daylight second. And we're at home, but up against it next Friday night. Ripe for another mauling?
We've only won 1 from 5 games (20%) v the Panthers over the last two years. But to the surprise of many, we won t
A Thursday night Blockbuster.
Both are on 24 points and need the win to stay in the hunt for the all-important top four, especially the Eels with an inferior for and against.
The Eels have won only 1 of their last 4 Thursday night games. Contrarily,
Both teams had last wins over the Tigers, with the Eels winning ugly. And both are looking to record two-straight wins for the first time in three months since round 5, early April.
It's also been three years since the Eels met the Warriors at Commba
The Eels lost 12-30 against their bogey Souths last week. Not particularly surprising, but in doing so missing a golden opportunity to get closer to the all important top-four with an ordinary, middle-of-the-road performance against the resurgent Mit
It's been five years since we've beaten the Rabbits at Accor (R26, 2017; 22-16).
We have lost 6 of the last 7 against the Rabbits that have been our second biggest boogey (after the Roosters) since 2014.
It wouldn't surprise me if we see a much-impro
There’s a lot riding on this game. Both reams really need the win to stay anywhere near the top four, and for confidence as much as anything. The Roosters could even drop out of the eight, whilst how scarred the Eels are after last Monday’s mauling b
