2025 built on the 2024 season and 1 Eyed Eel continues to grow. Numbers-wise w
After the first minute of the game I immediately knew that no matter how good we try to play that we would not win the game. The corruption was pretty clear. But wow we played awful.
Denan Kemp, the former Broncos NRL player and SEN commentator was equally scathing of the Eels as the officiating in the Eels’ Round 1 loss to the Melbourne Storm in his podcast.
“The jersey deserved better than that second half," he admitted.
Zac Lomax has settled his legal dispute with the Parramatta Eels, agreeing he cannot return to the NRL without the club’s written consent before the 2028 season.
In a surprise development in the NSW Supreme Court, both parties reached a settle
The Parramatta Eels are pleased to announce that rising talent Teancum Brown has been upgraded to a development contract for the 2026 season, and an NRL contract extension for the 2027 and 2028 seasons.
Even if the Iongi photos are legitimate with alleged illicit substance use, it likely happened years ago while he was at the Panthers. It appears to be a personal smear campaign. Hopefully, we fully support Iongi. He's young and players aren't angels

"I believe Api has a much higher ceiling than Joash, however, Api is still in development mode in regards to his body maturing. Joash is a ready now utility role player and with the incoming expansion teams starting up it will be, and is, always…"
"Nah he is no chance of FG this year. Maybe cup towards the end of the year. But this is only if they let him go back to fullback. He is not a 6 what so ever. I feel he looks more like an individual type player than normal now due to him being an out…"
"I think there is a chance that Davis becomes a better player than Bamblett. I am a little bit of Bamblett due to his recent performances but a large factor is he has been playing 6 rather than 1. I hate him at 6."
In our well-justified praise of Ryley Smith, there is a big thing being missed: his ability to read the game and footy IQ.
He is a couple of plays ahead and anticipating every move both in defence, primarily at present, but also in setting up the a
