Eels Team vs Cronulla

The Dyldam Parramatta Eels side to take on the Cronulla Sharks at Pirtek Stadium on Saturday 29 August for their third annual Johnny Mannah Cup has been named by Head Coach Brad Arthur.

Arthur has made one change to his line up with Blue and Gold skipper Tim Mannah returning to the starting side with Darcy Lussick moving to the bench.

The game will be the third annual Johnny Mannah Cup, in honour of the late Johnny Mannah, who was a member of both the Eels and Sharks NRL clubs.

The Eels NRL clash is part of a massive triple-header with the Eels NYC and Wentworthville Magpies NSW Cup sides also in action.

Gates open at 10:30am with the NYC kick off at 10:40am, NSW Cup 12:40pm kick off and NRL kickoff at 3pm.

"I think Braith respects Ryles as a coach and what he's doing at Parra and obviously believes Lomax did the wrong thing, listened to poor advice and brought this all upon himself and did the wrong thing to Parra"

"I'm putting last year down to the new style of attack and defence that had been implemented, as well as relying on Volkman at half. It was a disatorous 1st half without doubt, but I can't see that happening again. We should be much better prepared…"

That's a good side. Hopefully the boys can get the win this week. It's all about playing for pride now. It's always a good good game when we verse the Sharks.

No Jospeh Paulo would be a gain, even if he did run some straight metres against Manly.

  Funny how the so called experts didn't rate him highly or talk him up, this is the problem with this club, it's the show ponies or freaks (pauli) that get accolades instead of the honest, hard working team players.
