How good is Hopgood?

Honestly people, how is all the talk today not about Hopgood. Everyone wants to focus on negatives from our trial yet i think Hopgood is 10 times more attention worthy. His stats yesterday were awesome while punching out 80 minutes. This guy is somet

Guess who's back!

Im hearing whispers that this man is back and re-signed or about to do so, anybody hearing anything?

Settle the fek dow Carls, go change your panties!

Our Juniors and an early comparison to the unquestioned top of the line rivals. I will be interested to read the responses given that I suspect not many know much about our juniors

I have cut and and pasted the relevant sections from The Cumberland Throws report on these trials as I believe we have a lot of nisnomers about our juniors and there current levels. Tarsha Gale is the womens u/19's, Harrold Matts u/17's and SG Ball u

Matt Doorey, 22, a former Australian Schoolboys star and NSW under-20s second-rower, has been snapped up by the Parramatta Eels.

There U go.

The club and its poor use of this site

Looking at all the banter from other clubs signing or proposed signing news it is as though Parramatta are not in the new player market. Almost everyone on this site are wondering what the club are doing when  other clubs are announcing player transf

Panthers will win the comp again in 2023 to make it 3 in a row . Agree or disagree?

I reckon the Panthers will win the comp again next year and make it a threepeat to equal ours in 81.82 and 83.

They are still on the upwards curve, they still have the best team, they have a smart coach, the experience in the big ones and theyve shown

Junior Pathways and understanding the problem

It appears that we have lost Nathan Brown (ex coach) in our junior structure, reference was made in Slippery's blog that referred to the Parramatta development process.

I suspect it may have been his (Browns) report on "nepotism" that stirred the rats

The Story Of Our Season

The spectacular roller-coaster of the sweet-and-sour 2022, our best year since 2009, is finished but far from forgotten. 

The grand final still haunts many Eels fans. 

Dylan Edwards, the Panthers' grand final hero and Clive Churchill Medalist, knew

Early Days but something to think or worry about.

It seems the fad is becoming that a secondary hooker starts the game and the established hooker comes on after 15/20 minutes and completes same.

Qld did this in Origin, Penrith in the Premiership (and others) and Australia overnight in the WC,

Congrats to Stan1974 (ParraFanOnTheHill), this years 1EE tipping comp winner. If memory serves me correct that's at least two out of three he has won so far.

Thanks to everyone for joining, hope to see you all again next year.

Going forward and fulfilling our next level of Development.

I wrote this as a post on the other Blog I posted after the game.....Hopefully it outlines a thinking process that can take us on the next leg of the journey.

The pathways concept is something that is dear to me and I am pleased to see they addressin

We will be better next year

I was at the game and yet to see replay on tv , but from my observations we can come back from this .

At end of the day we played a team and club on fire ( a club that won all grades and created a record has hardly lost a game in 3 years - been in the

Nathan Brown should be scouting St.Mary's saints

Big highlight from fall out yesterday, Nathan Brown needs to scout around St.Marys saints obviously, half the panthers team out of there

Fact- Geoff Daniela also from there... People on 1eyed for long time know what this means

Also Mick Jennings & Br

Dissapointed, of course, surprised yes but in hindsight not good enough. Don't knock what we came up against tonight!

Just came in from my son's house where we had family and a few friends gather round the fire for our GF party, yes bloody cold in Brissy today!

Reading the match day blog I was surprised there was so much criticism of the effort. 

I though Laui was bri

It’s Time!

Sitting here in my living room and thinking back to all the highs and lows of being a parra supporter. As a kid, watching my team win grand finals and thinking it would always happen, as a 25 year old watching from behind the posts as my Eels lost a

This is for us

So I've been reading a lot of the blogs and posts on the site over the last few days, and there are so many wonderful Eels inspired stories and memories. So many involving loved ones past and present. Many have brought a tear to the eye.

My city, my people, my heart

Scouse musician Jamie Webster has a song called This Place. It's about his love affair with his home city of Liverpool, UK. In it he sings about the people, the places and what makes it feel like home to him.

Parramatta is this home to me. It's where

Watch GF live at Commbank Stadium

I don't know if this has already been mentioned anywhere but you can watch the game live on big screens at Commbank stadium for $15.00. Tix from Ticketek. This would also make an ideal place for an afterparty if we win but I doubt you will get in lat
