If you look at all of the top teams right now, one of the consistent elements they have is creativity around dummy half. I was really struck during Origin, at the difference that Grant made, and I thought Cook was the one taking us forward - because
Parramatta have axed forward Nathan Brown for Saturday's clash with the Roosters, with the Eels also recently informing the lock forward that he doesn't have a long-term future at the club.
Sources with knowledge of the situation told the Herald th
You lead by example, that is something lacking from both Gutho and Paulo. Needed someone to grab the team by the scruff of the neck and demand excellence. Gutho is the voice of this team, where it was said Paulo is not much of a talker, though more o
Lol this will be short and sweet in the first part. Embarrassing, no way around it, Wests was bad enough at home, but we gave up i rarely say that but we did. 1-17 were abysmal and derserve the criticism, BA deserves some also, a lot of issues that k
It is 216 BC and Hannibal’s Carthaginians have met the Romans at Cannae (southern Italy). Hannibal is outnumbered: 40,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry versus the Romans with 80,000 infantry and 6,000 cavalry. The Romans thought they could just send th
With news of the Salary Cap sky rocketing expectations to a proposed $10.5 million, questions will be asked how much money will players off contract recieve. Dylan Brown and Mitchell Moses are two players with a microscope on them and rightfully so,
38-0, great win but some stats have really caught my eye. Now of course the result may have actually made these stats a bit better than what they should be, but still good to look at some great and some meh.
This is the sequel to an earlier blog on the quarter-way mark. Here, we are looking at some mid-season markers, indicators and lessons from NRL history over the last twenty four years.
So, we're fifth at the end of round 12 and will be at the end of
Parramatta has upped the ante in the fight for Ryan Matterson, tabling a revised four-year deal in the hope of keeping the NSW State of Origin star out of the clutches of Wayne Bennett and the Dolphins.
Back to back wins for the first time since round 3-5. It was overall a great game to watch, Canberra in form at home and us coming off a win v Manly, it met up to the expectation. 48% possession yet felt like we were in control of the game, particula
Losing Reed to Canterbury was a massive blow. However, I am not impressed with his development in 2022. He may have peaked. He has done some good things but also created some terrible situations by not being in sync with our two halfs who have killed
So with Papali'i, Niukore, Stone now looking like Matterson too, we have Shaun Lane........and that's it for our edge players next year. Yeah we have Cartwright but he can't even make it now how will he for 2023 full-time.
Coming into the season Ryan Matterson was viewed as a starting player in the side. A strong, powerful backrower with good hands and good defence, he's the type of backrower Parramatta likes and is needed in today's game.
"My thoughts now, we have the talent, I want the Eels to push this court case now an not accept the simple player exchange that has been suggested. Lets screw Melbourne into the ground. To accept an offer now would be a victory for Melbourne. Lets …"
