Poppa's Corner: Five-Eights and Fullbacks

This is receiving a fair bit of discussion and was touched upon in NOS' outstanding blog on the now-injured Iongi. I thought it could be better discussed in isolation where some may like to offer their observations over the years of similar compariso

Round 21, 2024

I was going through my camera roll earlier, and came across this photo of our lineup from exactly one year ago — Round 21, 2024 against the Melbourne Storm.

Upon reading the names, it was mind-blowing the quantity of players who are no longer at th

What does our salary cap look like for 2026?

Under Jason Ryles, the club has been clearing the decks at breakneck speed.

Of the 31 players that pulled on the Blue and Gold in 2024, only 14 remain contracted for 2026.

Since then, the Eels have debuted 15 players.

Given the turnover, there has be

Game Day Blog R20 vs Raiders: The Future is Now

It is a little known fact that the new Eels coach, Jason Ryles, is a science-fiction writer. The Future is Now is a 2025 novel depicting a bet on the future of humanity, or more precisely a multi-generational cohort of mentally and emotionally fatigu

Poor Dylan…

Looks like a rough couple of years coming up for Newcastle.

Poppa's Corner: A Reality Check, But Not Blaming Anyone

Yesterday's game was unfortunate. Not just for the putrid 32-10 scoreline to honour Junior's 200th after looking up for the game in the first half or the second half implosion. But because it told us that we are not going anywhere, despite our hope f

Game Day Blog R19 v Penriff: Junz's 200th; Spine reshuffles, Cleary, Yeo, Simmo, Little Pap in (32-10 Loss)

This blog was largely written by the legendary Dr Holdon T. Wilson, with a bit of help from me.

UPDATE: Eels lost 32-10 after being in the game at half-time behind by 2 (10-12), and arguably the better team. But after the break, the Panthers took

Poppas Corner: Origin Blindness

How can anyone say that the half back that has led his side to 4 straight grandfinal wins and one of them almost single handedly cannot play Origin Football.

Up until last night he had played 16 games witha 50% win record. He doesn't need  to be defe

State of Origin Game 3 - Predictions

Not exactly Eels-related, but keen to hear everyone’s thoughts on tonight’s game. Drop your predictions below! Here are mine:

Margin: NSW by 8

First time try scorer: Harry Grant

Player of the Match: Cleary

Player of the Series: Brian To'o

Mitchell Moses

Does anyone know is Moses playing this weekend coming 🤔 

Jake Averillo & Josh Kerr

As the title suggests, Jake Averillo & Josh Kerr are both rumoured to be free to negotiate with rivals clubs. I believe both players would fit well within Ryles' plan.

Jake Averillo:

There was some mail earlier this week that Ryles had met with Jake Av
