Nassim Taleb’s Antifragile: Things that Gain from Disorder (2012) argues that the most influential events are often the least anticipated, which Taleb calls ‘black swan’ events. Taleb says our world changes according to a mix of unintelligibility, lu
He has gone from being a back-rower more so used as a game breaker, but not a worker. His flaws in his game were defence and decision making. He was a five-eighth in the body of a back-rower. Went from being considered on the bench for NSW, 18th man
5 in a row, first time we have done that since round 6-10 2021. What a wonderful sight to accumilate 14 points in 7 weeks, pushing us into the 8 with some comfort, we are at a point where we could afford a loss and stay in the 8. But top 4 is still a
A 10 out of 10 effort in the first half, set this game up for the win. Allowing the dolphins to get way too many points in the second half needs to be addressed for the future.

Our Eels have shattered a 77-year-old record for the club with a first-half masterclass scoring 42 points in one 1st half of football. The never-before-done feat secures this Eels team a place in our history books. It is now the highest-ever first-ha

While as Eels fans we have tripped far too many times to ever get a step ahead of ourselves, is there a sense something different is building out West t
After a very up and down opening 10 rounds, the Eels languished in 14th place and were staring down a South Sydney side in first place and playing some breathtaking rugby league.
Given Parramatta’s well documented recent struggles against the Rabbits
One positive of Brown's stand down is the emergence of Daejarn Asi. A signing that surprised me, yet made complete sense to me. It was confusing at first as when he signed it was not mentioned how long for, then it was reported that he signed with us
What a great display by a depleated Eels side. 34 - 4 with several tries disallowed, we were always in control . Our forwards led from the front and paving the way.

Noiseworks released the song Touch in 1988. The lyric “reach out and touch somebody” was repeated, wait for it, six times. Hypothetically if one was born in 2000 one may not have been overly influenced by such advice. Noiseworks is off the hook. Oh,
A long weekend, Parramatta win, Canterbury lose and a spot out of the 8. God save the King. King Gutho I that is. Not a complete performance but an overall good one. At this stage it seems were slowly getting into our groove, Barrett's attacking sche
The R15 King's Birthday clash against the Bulldogs marks King Arthur's reign as the Eels' longest-serving coach (244 games) over-taking the renowned Brian Smith.
No doubt Arthur would have some pride in the Eels' resurgence over the last two weeks w
I mentioned on a blog last week that i do not care if it is by 50 or by a FG on the buzzer or in golden point, just want a win. That is what we got. Though not an impressive win, a win nonetheless. I will say it was not our worst performance of the y
"I think by Round 1 I believe? Not 100% sure on the 97.5% question.
As for your idea of having players come to us instead of chasing. Not happening, we are not Roosters or Melbourne or Penrith where you ring their agent and they want to go…"
"LB, perceived fair value and expectations are important nuances.
If a player feels undervalued, grievance is inevitable. If he’s overpaid, pressure intensifies. And if he’s unhappy, money won’t fix it.

Easy walk over the bridge to the sporting precinct, bit of a walk into the city but not to bad.
Hopefully we go better than last year, that was a hard sit in the stands "
