Let's start by saying the sky is not falling, there are no real concerns and season is not over. I think that is very fair to say. It is also fair to say i was pleased with our performance considering the circumstances. To lose a Winger, then to have
On Friday night's hyped-up Battle of the West, the Panthers are overwhelming favorites to bounce back from some recent knock-downs when they host the Eels.
However, the Eels have been the biggest thorn to the Panthers of all clubs since the Panthe
Hope you all did not get 3rd degree burns from sitting out in the stands waiting for the match itself. To make matters worse were the pyro flamethrowers that were put out to add ambience to the arena. I thought well i am burning up here, but thank go
Shakespeare’s The Tempest is about betrayal and revenge. For the past thirty-eight years the Eels have betrayed their fans, dashing their hopes against the rocks of disappointment. Fans have sought revenge, adopting a wary cynicism of never bestowing
Finally, the off-season is technically officially over. Cricket season passed, tennis season passed, Christmas, New years all gone, now to the game they play in heaven. My word was it shivers down my spine watching the game yesterday, making me reali
Hope you all had a splendid and enjoyable summer. Almost ready to go for another seaosn. Call this a "Warm Up" for me as you will. Back to do the Team Lists all again in 2024.
Most important thing to say after the game is it is a trial and also majority of our depth tonight were playing their first ever game against men, so of course they would be nervous and bit overmatched. They will grow and get better. I was there at J
Talagi - had an alright game, a decent one considering it was his first ever game playing fullback. You have to give him time before just giving up on the plan to move him to fullback. Had a couple of good moments. If Gutho goes down immediately, he
Roll up, roll up the Leagues Club elections are on again. It wasn't that long ago that these were a hotly contested, insanely political, circuses taking place every two years in the car park outside the Leagues Club. The media absolutely loved the ch
It's been troubling me for a while, how much negativity is generated towards players, coaching staff and admin within these forums and it got me asking - how well do we stack up as a Parramatta Supporter? What are the KPI's we should be judged by?
So it seems at this stage, Kelma Tuilagi and Morgan Harper are the only two signings so far for 2024. Meaning we have 27 spots locked up for 2024. Now Luca Moretti has not be signed for 2024, bet he will be therefore it will be 28. So usually clubs l
So now the NRL season is officially over, now comes the speculatoin point of the season, quite frankly the worst part of the year. The month of October is the worst as November is when training starts and can start to get an idea of the team structur
Back in August I dissected many of the issues surrounding Parramatta's style of play that led to their lacklustre 2023 season. Now I'm here to offer some solutions and, at least, some reasoning as to why that occurred.
"Agreed Chiefy - if we land Ando it would be good to see what his role includes and land another to move on MON.
We need astute minds at the helm. And new thoughts around the table. We need to be at the table when these schoolboys are playing / along…"
"I don't know why but i have this feeling this time next year we are all seeing Koina as our starting 13 in 2028 and demanding he extends. With Hopgood off-contract and a younger and cheaper option, probably one of the best middles for his age,…"
"I am not sure that he wont be in the 17, Ryles does like him, but again i would not be surprised if he is here in 2028 and sittting behind some juniors. I do wonder if the extension is only a year til 2028? If so then yeah makes sense having him at…"
