Eels NRLW analysis and best 17

Parramatta's quest to bring a wealth of western Sydney talent home for the NRL Telstra Women's Premiership was a huge success as the team prepares for their first season in the competition.

The Eels are one of three sides set to enter the NRLW in 202

Junior Paulo to be the best Front Row Forward in the World next year!

I don't believe he has in any way realised his potential.....I suspect he doesn't know himself what he can do yet.

This year I think he will announce himself as the best Prop Forward in the game and be a decisive factor in Parramatta going all the way

Hodgson and Rein: The Bridge Players

There has been a lot of discussion over the age of some of our recruits, especially seeing as we've released younger players. Hodgson, Rein and if we get him, Tariq Sims, are all over 30. 

Now I don't have any real inside information into the ongoing

Musical Players, wily hookers and unhappy hookers

I just posted something similar on a Hooker blog and feel this may be worth a discussion on its own.

Now the question arises how much bad blood may exist with Reed if he wanted desperately to get out. Not good for anyone if he is not happy,including t

Monopoly, Play Money, Patience and Recruitment.....Oh and Retention! and lets not forget Reincarnation

I essentially posted this already on the Josh Hodgson blog and given it was on about the 19th page of absolute shit and rubbish, I decided to maybe take the discussion into some sense of surrealness.

Retention and Recruitment.

Arthur should be pissed

Brad Arthur deserves to be right royally pissed off with the way all this has played out. Between the players showing him no loyalty and the club having no idea how to negotiate a new deal, Arthur has been sold short. Despite the criticism he receive

When we hit rock bottom last year BA was gone for all money...... I think we can all agree on that. I was a long term BA supporter but I had turned against him because of what I saw as flagrant nepotism to Jake. I started off thinking he was an ok fi

Hear Me Out

As angry as I am right now, is it really that bad?

RCG is a gun and we signed him with Penrith still paying for him somehow, lol.

Gutho extended and no matter what your thoughts on how he went on about his business, he is the best defensive fullback in

Premierships, Tpa's and Limp dicks.

I am not driven by premiership's like many on here. I just want us to be the best, when we are premierships will just happen.

I was bitterly disappointed after 1986, not because we ended a run of premierships, but we stopped being the best.

JOEY LEILUA - Should we offer him a one year deal ? I say Yes.

On his day he can be a game breaker, hes a tough hombre with a lot of experiance and still a few years of 1st grade in him.

He can play in multiple positions including centre and would give us some x factor off the bench.

I heard him say he's willing t

I have been reading alot of different post about player value and such recently, and not really seen anyone comment on the following point. By adding a team who can add another million dollar player and several 750k+ players, what were previously hel

The Recruitment Discussion

Recruitment and retention is always fraught with different levels of risk and reward. Players are handed big money deals and don't perform, while the guys on lesser wages play above their pay grades.

For the last few years, the Eels have had the good

Penrith Phillistinism.

Good to see the NRL taking action oner the outrageous behaviour of the Penrith morons who smashed the NRL trophy in their drunkin or drug state. Good fines were given to all concerned. The club itself was fined which was a necessary first which one h
