Vaughan sacked by Dragons effective immediately. Do we sign him?
I still rate Vaughan. Yes what he did was dumb but I can get past it. The Dragons saw an opportunity to relieve themselves of a backended 2022 deal worth $800k.
He's a quality front rower, has great hands and decent defence. He's also good mates with
R16 v Panthers: time to claw back?
“Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows,” suggested George Orwell in 1984. It is possible for the Eels to beat Penrith. If that is granted, all else follows. How the Eels can achieve this feat

Interested to get some views on how people think Junior is going?
I thought in Origin 2 where he started, that he didn't really look for work and when he did take it up, he didn't look to offload, I can only remember him passing once and maybe one off

Would anyone be interested to see a club by club breakdown of their top 30 players and coach to see who holds the power at that club?
For my own interest I've started researching which players and coaches are managed by which player managers.

This will be the 150th club game between these two with one of the fiercest rilvaries that began in 1947 at Belmore. And we have played the Dogs more than any other side in the competition.

“I have come here to chew bubble gum, and kick ass. And I am all out of bubble gum,” said the Eels to the Newcastle Old Boys reunion last week (They Live). While a depleted Knights were little more than roadkill in the Eels’ 40-4 victory in Round 13,

With many Eels fans saying our season was dead and BA should be shown the door normal service resumed today. Against an understrength Knights side the Eels were clinical and solid in attack and defence. Forward dominance and offloads were back and th

Farewell to a gentleman
A lot of people don’t get 1Eyed Eel. They see the argy bargy, the cynicism, the venting after each shitty performance, and they can too-quickly jump to conclusions about what the site is all about. Those that don’t get it, never get to learn that it’

He's been sorely missed. We sweated it out vs the Warriors and were belted by Manly and Souths alike. Competely exposed as a defensive unit making us look like a bottom 4 side the last 2 weeks. Blasted away and never had a hope once the opposition sn
