R17 v Tigers: How Goes Sybil's Exorcism?

In the Captain’s Run media fronting, Shaun Lane was disarmingly blunt. “We got phased” by the Rabbits’ in last week’ 12-30 loss.

To many, it wasn’t a huge surprise that Rabbits made us their bunnies; stunned-in-the headlights. The Eels are one of th

Is there any Parramatta Eels fan NOT suffering mental issues?

I'll put my hand up first and say i am sufferening mental issues that i feel are made worse by the club, who chose me as a young child to support them.

Surely theses only about 1% of eels fans who are totally sane?.

Im figuring at least 99% of eels fan

Will Penisini - A poor mans Michael Jennings

This is going to be a very unpopular opinion.

Firstly, i think Will is a good player, fairly solid in most things he does and he does a fairly good job for us, especially for his age and limited experience in league.

But im hearing a lot of overrated t

Let's see some change

Another roller coaster performance from Parramatta. The most consistently inconsistent team in the league. 

I know it will fall on deaf ears as the club have their head buried in the sand but the changes that need to occur right away:

Fickle Fans

Fuck the fans, they need to toughen up.....some cement and a trip to Bunnings and get over it......

Where are all the loser's from Monday night after their constant whinging and crying in their beer, what about the one's that said "that'll do me" and

Leadership and a discussion of needs

Yes Parra may have some leadership issues happening, I don't think the coach has changed and I don't think the captain has changed......a few people on here all of a sudden decided that their "shit" leadership is the root cause of our inconsistency,

Pedestrian dummy half play as a root cause to our problems

If you look at all of the top teams right now, one of the consistent elements they have is creativity around dummy half. I was really struck during Origin, at the difference that Grant made, and I thought Cook was the one taking us forward - because

The question that needs answering

Can this squad go any further?

That's the question that club management has to know the answer to if the Parramatta Eels are to break their nearly four decade premiership drought.

After an embarrassing capitulation to the deadlast Bulldogs, the Eels

Lack of True Responsibility by our Coach/Captain/Leader

I recently read the 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership - a really good read if that's your kind of thing. 

They have a whole chapter dedicated to Responsibility and above the line / below the line behaviours. As I was listening to Moses post game

Well that was embarrassing....Laugh out loud

I'm sitting here an hour and a half later and feeling....well? ......I am not hurting like I can after we have been beaten by one of the good sides.

I wonder why? Maybe all the stars aligned for Canterbury, they could do little wrong and Parra could d

Titans make big contract call on utility

Gold Coast Titans utility Will Smith has been granted an immediate release from the club on compassionate grounds.

A club statement confirmed Smith would return to New South Wales.

ANYONE KNOW WHO "THE EELS 1947" ON YOUTUBE IS?

Hi all, long time lurker here from Darwin,

Just a quick post asking if anyone knows the person who owns the YouTube account "The Eels 1947", or if they post on this forum?

I want to let them know, they posted a video called "JUNIOR PAULO AGAINST THE EE

NRL bad boy's mooted return divides club

Talented former bad boy Kenny Edwards wants to rejoin the Eels in 2023 - but the potential move has split the club.

After losing the nucleus of their forward pack to rival clubs for next year, the coaching and playing group want the 32-year-old back-r

With the experience of over 200 NRL games, the hooker adds great depth to the

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
