So, your team is finally good: How to cope with expectations

Coming into this season you'd excuse Parramatta Eels fans for being skeptical about the top four tags being slapped on them.

The Eels haven't done particularly well when expectations have been placed on them. In the past they've excelled when not muc

Cautious Optimism: My years as an Eels fan

There’s a popular saying: Once bitten, twice shy. Well, for an Eels fan try 200 times bitten, 400 times shy.

For those lucky enough to experience the halcyon days of the 1980s where the Eels were kings for three consecutive years and then gave legend

Stefano Utoikamanu: The Next Big Thing

Moan, Moan, Moanly

How do people see Jai Field's performance....... I felt he went ok, potentially a liability in a defensive sense but likely to improve with the confidence behind him. I thought Guth could have let him have that last penalty attempt to just give him t

Eels vs Cowboys 3, 2, 1

Ricky Stuart

I know this is ancient History .......but the nerve of this dilusional guy.    He is whinging about John Bateman and him jumping ship and he did the same to us in 2014.  Left us in an absolute mess and ran off to the Raiders...

The Parramatta Eels will have to do without livewire halfback Mitchell Moses after he succumbed to a calf injury midway through his side's match against the Canberra Raiders. Head coach Brad Arthur has revealed it's a recurrence of a previous calf in

BA and media gone missing

1. Moses tapped the ball back on the 20 m line, the ball landed behind the 20 m line, yet this was rulled a knock-on!!!

2. Blatant forward pass infront of the touch judge for Raider's try not called!!!

3. Rapana punches Sivo in the face. Unprovoked aft

Eels vs Raiders 3, 2, 1

So proud of the team for such a courageous victory. Everything, including the refs, was against us yet we toughed it out and stood up under pressure. A special win this one.
