A Mare`s Nest

Some years ago--about six--when it was first mooted that Tod Greenburg should be CEO, I wrote that if he became CEO it would be the beginning of the end of Rugby League in Australia. Well, here we are then. Not quite there yet but closer to it than a

Kyle Schneider

Is it too early for Kyle? He is 19 this year - not sure when his Birthday is. Reed made his debut at 19, although Kyle has lost quite a bit of time through injury. However, if the comp is running after June, could we see a debut from Kyle? Unfortunat

Eels vs Titans 3, 2, 1

We started great and finished great but there was still a lot of scrappiness in the middle. What is clear is that we need a genuine hooker replacement on the bench; before the Titans lost interest our attack looked so stifled. Still, our forwards wer

How very Nice?

Great to see South Sydney taking the Corona Virus heath issue so seriously. The players are drinking out of the same bottle passing on god knows what. As an example of how people should react to the crisis, it leaves everything to be desired.

Eels vs Bulldogs 3, 2, 1
