"There was an article a year or two ago which ranked supporter-bases for teams and the Eels did well for memberships, and for average crowd attendances. That kind of suggests, as JC hints at, that the Eels enjoy a loyal base.
But the Eels…"

"You've got to wonder how sustainable that is. When you get to a stage where no fans remember winning a grand final, will Parra still have such a big fan base? In any event, Parra knows that they must be successful despite what the NRL throws at us…"
"NOS, was that $30 for an entire jug?"

Imagine if the club had the 1EE attitude: “Oh, we’re so crap, we shouldn’t go to Las Vegas like every other club.”
Might as well just forfeit the NRL licence. We almost lost it recently when fans had more decision making power.
I know right 😅
It's been a tough week/month/year for some 1EE Fans.
LoL, Clintorian. Or a tough 40 years.
The price of passion.
Our love and loyalty of the Eels can outlive marriages and family members. I do wonder why...
My love and passion is always for Parra HOE, but I can tell you now I would not be forking out over $10k for a Vegas game; I would rather head to Brisbane for Magic round tbh.
To me its all piss and wind for one game / show on tv; and no doubt the players love the experience but I cannot justify the cost.
You are right, if i was going i would make it a proper holiday instead of seeing Eels players and leaving. But also, the prices for everything double now because it is an event.
But LB, you can go visit the Grand Canyon, at the bottom of which can be found the Eels' edge defense
I have seen it, was in a small propeller plane. If i wanted to see a giant hole i would go to Shark Park.
LB, I was in it (grand canyon). Hiked down some trail from the from north rim after watching the sun come up. Did not hit bottom, was too far and getting hotter as I descended. But hit bottom in Bryce Canyon, a few hours north in Utah. It was snowing at the top of that canyon hike and singlet-weather at the bottom. Which is like watching the Eels, hot and cold
Wow that's incredible. Bit like when my mum went to Cairo, said in the daytime it was sweltering, shorts and shirts. At night it was freezing, beanie and scarfs.
Mitchy, just think of it as a free deportation to El Salvador, via Orange Turd Air. Once they check your 1EE messages to the radical communist proagandist marxist woke elite prof daz, you're toast, first flight to San Salvador for you buddy.
