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
A win would see us win five-straight and break a 43 year record (not bettered since we won six straight 1977-1979) against the hapless Dogs whom are well positioned for back-to-back spoons.
Not many Eels fans, other than an individual who might be pa
After celebrating Ice's 100th with a hard-fought 28-20 win against Canberra in Canberra, the team gets a week off to recharge. It was a historic win on Indigenous Round on the back of courageous second-half defence. Defence with Soul.

This is a danger game against the on-fire, physical Raiders who outmuscled Souths and the Sharks in the last fortnight.
A win would see us do something we've not done for 22 years, win two straight against Canberra at Canberra.
Also, we have not won
It's The King's 150th NRL game. A real emotional game for the Blue and Gold's this Friday night.
Both Manly and Eels need to fight back after demoralizing losses last week.
The Eels have lost 3 straight against the Silvertails and haven't beaten them
We have lost 5 of the last 6 against the Roosters, and haven’t beaten them outside of Parramatta for 14 years. It’s also superstar Tedesco’s 100th game for the Roosters. Can the Eels, fighting for consistency, create history, record back-to-back wins
Parramatta will need another 80 minute performance if they want to get on over the boys from Bondi.
The Eels look to entrench themselves in the top four against the improving Cowboys.
The Eels head to the Territory for their annual match in Darwin, facing off against a Cowboys side that put the Gold Coast Titans to the sword in round 7.
The Eels look to bounce back against a struggling Knights team in Newcastle. Can they repeat the does of last season?
We face off the long-suffering Tigers, on their worst ever run. Will normalcy prevail, or will the Tigers be desperate enough to pull off an upset?
The Eels look to make it three wins in a row and complete the double over the Titans when they head up to Queensland.
