Broncos Smith offer

Just read an article saying the Broncos have approached a millionaire businessman to help secure Smith. How is this allowed? I thought it is against the rules for a club to approach an external person/company with the specific aim of increasing the f

Adam Reynolds at Halfback?

Seeing the article in the DT today, it's Interesting that the Bunnies have given him such a poor contract extension...
While I'll admit he's not outstanding, you can't deny he has been a pretty important and reliable feature in their success in the la

Eels Trial Game thoughts?

It was pretty obvious which players had played in the NRL or not. Will Smith, Papali'i and Lussick were the best players in the first half. Arthur looked very good in all aspects of the game for such a young half. He goes so deep in the line which is

Trial Team v Dragons (Players with 12 games or less from 2020)

It looks like the trial on 18/02/21 is only allwoing players who played 12 games or less last year. Having a look at the numbers, that leaves very few to choose from.

Not too sure about how many of the new recruits will be available? Anyone keen to tr

New Signings: Bryce Cartwright

I have previously discussed Cartwright’s recruitment, however this is a piece more on how the Eels will look to use him.

Arriving at the Eels from the New Zealand Warriors, Papali'i is a promising recruit who adds further backup to Parramatta's middle forwards.

Although beginning life as an edge player at the Warriors, he spent most of 2020 in the middle of the field,

2020 Year in Review

Well what a disappointment 2020 turned out to be. Whether it be the Eels petering out to meekly bow out of the finals in straight sets or a year that promised the Olympics and a T/20 world cup and instead we got a global pandemic and everything locke
