Ryan Matterson: The Super Sub

Coming into the season Ryan Matterson was viewed as a starting player in the side. A strong, powerful backrower with good hands and good defence, he's the type of backrower Parramatta likes and is needed in today's game.

However, after starting the s

Wile apologises to Eels Marketing

What moron is making our players wear only their playing gear to talk to the media in the freezing cold.

Have a look at the last three pressers. All Gutho does is complain he is freezing and wants to get out of there as soon as possible. Same with Dyl

Trying to analyse this Parramatta Team through the smoke Haze

Watching last night I had mentally resigned us to losing, they were not doing enough when down by 10. The previous week I thought the same with Easts skipping out to 25-6.

We must be a reasonably good side to come back in both circumstances.....if you

Eels- Manly 3-2-1

3: Moses - Not a good first half but the 3 is for nailing a difficult kick and winning the game

2: Shaun Lane- one of his best

1: Matterson: thought his presence helped - except for the stupid offload 

Des you liar

Press encouraged Des and Des repeatedly and strongly claimed was not a head high tackle but a try saver and said the ref needed to review himself.

Both lied - see pick. Tackle was worse than Brown's penalty for headhigh try saver last week and the hea

Arthur pre-game: It will be a Real Emotional Game For Us

Brad Arthur and Clint Gutherson spoke to the media ahead of the important clash against Manly, and the King's 150th milestone.

Arthur noted "he's so proud to be a part of it" and explained why.

"I'll always be forever grateful to Gutho".

EELS THROW BARRETT LIFELINE

Parramatta coach Brad Arthur has thrown a lifeline to recently departed Canterbury coach Trent Barrett.

In a move that nobody saw coming, Brad reached out to Trent to offer his support on Monday and the Telegraph believe a proposition has been put for

What do the Bulldogs do in the coaching area and does it affect Reed?

So Trent Barrett has fallen on Gould's Excalibur and his NRL head coaching career is pretty much done after two failed stops at Manly and Canterbury, after two goes and one of the two only producing 4 wins, coaches hardly ever get a third chance. It

A Frightening Prospect

A bookmark: What does all this mean for the Storm?

Most pundits probably expected a weakened Papy-Hughes-less Storm to lose.

But not like this.

In last night's round 10 post-match presser a calm, philosophical Craig Bellamy, at least on the surface, described how the Panthers Strangled his team.

Segeyaro would have been a great backup

Just read that Segeyaro is getting a train and trial run at Manly which is great. He was a solid player and pretty dynamic at creating, so I'm glad to see he's getting one last crack and didn't just give up or fade away. We all know he had his troubl

Here is another Parramatta supporter looking to break records......No doubt all our social conscious supporters will be behind the Long time Parra supporter!

This is a human interest story about a Parra fan.....against the rich Labour blowin! Lol

Gang Tackles....are they really a part of the game and do we want or need them

Lifting players in the tackle and then carrying them backwards was once never part of the game in my memory i.e. you pushed them back whilst they were on their feet, as soon as their feet leave the ground they should be called held. Stops the wrestli

The Victory Song: We Proved Everyone Wrong; What's next?

"Played Strong, done fine" is what the great Jack Gibson might have said.

Before the game, Reed admitted "We want to prove everyone wrong", and last night they did. I'm ultra proud.

It was against the reigning premiers. Hungry, young lions, with a f

Well done BA

Good strategy and good presser.

Like the use of offloads against the Panther gang tackles

Made sure the media noted we got a really bad call without criticising the ref. 

It was a tough assignment with injuries and players backing up with a short turn a

Eels vs Panthers 3, 2, 1

Outstanding performance. Filled with grit, patience, and whole-hearted effort. And how nice to break the Panthers' home run! Their fans certainly hate us more now if that were even possible bahahaaha!

Moses, Gutho, & Reed Interviews: We want to prove everyone wrong
