Nathan Brown played through broken foot

Parramatta Eels lock forward Nathan Brown played much of the 2021 season with multiple lower leg injuries.

It's been revealed that Brown has recently undergone syndesmosis repair surgery and an ankle clean out on one leg and will undergo surgery on a

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

Long time reader, first time poster. Eels tragic since watching my first footy game with Dad back in the 70's and deciding to support the other team to Dad's dogs. Thank god it was the Eels and I havent looked back since.

A war of attrition

This an extract / quote from a post made by Fathead.

You see the nature of the game doesn't allow for the continued policing of either the on side or lying in the ruck. 
If you did, you would basically have a game of NFL where every play is policed an

Ken Thornett Medal Live Blog

The Ken Thornett Medal is once again upon us with Parramatta's season coming to an end.

The reigning medal holder is Clint Gutherson and no player has gone back to back since Jarryd Hayne in 2009 and 2010.

There have been a number of standout perform

2022 Eels Depth Chart

With the club announcing four players departing and there will no doubt be some recruitments and upgrades to come over the off-season, here's what the club's depth chart looks like at the moment.

Fullback: Clint Gutherson, Hayze Perham, Sean Russell

Suggestion to the Board, go for BankWest to take sponsorship of the club, with Comm Bank now taking naming rights on the ground.

Smart thinking now would be Bank West taking on the Parra sponsorship.

Bank West being out of Comm Bank makes so much sense when the team playing there is out of the same "stable".

With due respect to ALAND we need a sponsor with the type of status tha

The Curtain Falls

And with one horrendous call of his whistle while the circus music and streamers went off in The Bunker, Ashley Klein killed off Parramatta's season. Throw in a bunch of terrible non-calls because, once again, the officials are incompetent and they d

Why was Junior Pengai allowed to play and what happened to refereeing discretion and the bunker's role in the whole process. PC is killing us!

How about Junior Pangai even playing in the game at this stage of the season. I'm still don't understand what justified his going  to any club after the June 30 deadline. i.e. he wasn't a Sonny Bill coming from another code or the like. (just quietly

1EE OFF SEASON OFFICIALLY STARTS NOW!

Blogs are open for any topic, not just RL, welcome to the official 1EE off season.

Areas We Need to Improve to Win

Starting to get a bit nervous, I've let myself believe we have a chance on Saturday. It's a big ask, 2nd v 6th and they are a very talented squad. They'll be pumped to try and make up for the loss against Souths.

I'm keen to know what others think are

Tigers sponsor rips apart club

This is an absolutely brilliant podcast. A Tigers sponsor explains the incompetence in the club when it comes to recruitment and retention. Would have loved to hear something from an Eels sponsor during the dark years.

To paraphrase: Justin Pascoe th

Delayed Penalty

Since the crackdown on head high contact earlier in the season, we've seen the refs struggle to keep up with all the players getting reported. We often see, after a break in play, someone getting reported for an incident that happened earlier in the

All season we've heard Brad Arthur talk about front loading effort and playing tough, and aside from the first two minutes, it's exactly what they did on Sunday afternoon.

UPDATE

Hearing some good news for Parramatta fans. Junior Paulo and Marata Niukore will be free to play against Penrith. Will be hit with fines, no games missed.

Poem For Carlo

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought

I summon up remembrance of things past,

I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,

And with old woes new wail my dear time`s wast:

Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow,

For precious friends hid in deaths date

Can anyone explain to me how to reply to a blog and how to reply to an answer to a blog that I have sent?  I can now send a blog but I can`t respond to an answer to that blog. What do I click on for example?
