It’s official – tomorrow’s Eels v Knights clash is now the ultimate Spoon Bowl. With the Titans knocking over the Tigers tonight, we can just about hand chimp Matty Johns – and the incoming Dylan Brown – the dreaded wooden spoon 🥄.
And honestly, how sweet would it be to see Matty cop it? The “human chimp” loves playing the clown on his show, so there’d be nothing better than giving him the biggest prop of all – the spoon.
As for Dylan, you’ve got to wonder… how’s it going to feel knowing the team he’s about to join knowing he might be the one dishing out the embarrassment? Surely he’d have a hard time knowing he's leaving a team on the rise and heading over to the reigning spoon holders - how embarrassing.
Biggest crowd of the season expected tomorrow – time to fire up, Parra fans. Let’s make it count.

Few questions mate
1 . Whats BS are you referring to and be detailed?
2. Why play set for set footy against a team running in 17th place? Wouldn't you pull the trigger when an opportunity presents itself?
3. Is that you brad Arthur?
Lol. That pic is so funny 😁 😂 that has to be poppa back in the early 60s
The roaring 20's chief that means pops has already turned 100 assuming he was born in 1925 or possibly 106 some next year lol
This is ploppa listening to the Cumberland throw podcast while doing some gardening lol
Haha.
Not concerned with who gets the spoon. I just want to win this game. That is no guarantee. I've watched enough footy in my time and especially parra games to know a win here is definitely not automatic. It wouldn't be a crazy super shock if newcastle randomly play well. Its happened before.
Matty doesn't bag Parramatta, what are you going on about?
He hates Parramatta. + its payback for the 2001 gf. Sounds like you have a soft spot for matty and newy . Plus, they've paid stupid money for a player they think is a 7 lol. Good luck with that
Matty also said he predicts Ryles will win a comp at Parramatta.
It's not an official spoon bowl game chiefy, to qualify as a spoon bowl game both teams need to be able to win the spoon with a loss.
The eels are undefeated in official spoon bowl games,

2024 Eels 60 v Tigers 26
