R5 v The Titans: Who Will Do The Gutherino?

Rock Stars. That is who we were last week. In slaying the Dragons we were scintillating, especially Moses and Kenny Brown who continued their great form in the win over the Storm the week before.

We jump to third place on the ladder, the highest si

A tribute to Moses and Dyllan...... is this Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid ?????

Everyone has an opinion but I was reflecting this morning on Moses game and I think it was just about the perfect game.

Now before anyone gets carried away comparisons cannot be made because of the years of performance, not to mention the consistency

Eels make history

Beating Melbourne in Melbourne is not something Parramatta do regularly. Beating Melbourne isn't something that has happened very often either. And most assumed normal service would resume this weekend after the Eels managed two wins over their south

Future halves

I am concerned that BA appears to think our future halves are  6. JA  ;  7. Moses and we will not retain Dylan.

Based on what I have seen our best halve pairing for the next several years is the current: 6 Moses; 7 Dylan

Up to now I thought Moses was t

There is some intersting info about how the salary cap works in this articl

The Elephant in the room

All things aside there is an Elephant in the room that nobody can deny!

Roosters, Storm or Panthers would never have lost that game leading 16/12 with one minute to go.....untill we can openly add us to that list, then we are pissing into the wind.

Positives from tonight?

Thought we were clunky, in defence and attack. Waqa was good, in both aspects, Kafusi was not as dominant as I thought? Your thoughts???

R1 v Titans: A First For Everything

And so it begins. Sunday afternoon marks the first time these two have met on this ground, and we’re aiming for six consecutive wins against the Titans for the first time. If the Eels win it will also be the first time in our 75-year history that th

New Site Banner?

As much as I love the Xmas sweaters and appreciate someone actually has to creqte one, it's now the middle of March and the season has already started!

Can Dylan Brown stop being a defensive half?

1. Dylan has some rare qualities for a half - he is strong, tough and usually wins one on one contests.

2. "Defensive" seems to be the characteristic of his attack. He seems to be reactive and not proactive. If he does not see an opportunity he takes

Opener From FOX

This is how you do it @ the dopey NRL executives who signed off on that stupid NRL commercial. 

Foo Fighters banging in the background.

At the end where the Panthers are facing the other teams gunning for their title is great. Take the last 18 seconds

A point of view and a pre season wrap up

I am writing this based on observations of a person many respect. I will not name him but many of you know him.

I feel that many on here deserve to read this, simply because there is only one other place you will and many go there anyway , but many do

Position switches between Dyllan Brown, Jake Arthur and Waqar Blake

I just finished reading a very concise summary of yesterdays trial by 60's on TCT

Yesterday Offside made a post over the subtlety of the position change's mooted in the above heading. I suggested it was worth a blog on its own and so I will sow into t

Half Back Values and Judgements

My real focus here is Mitchell Moses who I think will challenge (not necessarilly win over Nathan Cleary as the top half in the game this season). Some discussion was entered in by Wiz of him being paid say 900/950 and him giving performances to equa

Salary Cap 9.1m .....how are we spending it?

This gets done seemingly regularly.....but it is worth thinking about.

Lets get someone to put up the 30 odd contracted players and see how close we get.....'
