Oddly enough, unlike most, I had no problems with player options.
Sure, they're instruments to get players across the line but they're misunderstood. People on here do not understand them or consider the bigger picture. Options were offered in lieu o
This is an article similar to what i posted a few months ago. Ryles is doing what many, if no rookie coaches do. He could have had the likes of Lane, Matto, Ofahengaue, Cartwright etc. still playing, let them see out their deals and ease the young ki
The last time the Eels beat the Storm, we had a Moses-Brown-Guthorino-Reed spine and were singing Happy Days with The Fonz. That was 2022. Since then, we’ve lost a record-breaking five-straight against them. And in those games they treated us like th
The Kaizen Way 改善. Constant Improvement. All for One, One for All.
That journey continues tonight against the high-flying fifth-placed Broncos on a five-game winning streak are looking to win five-straight against the Eels for the first time sin
This is receiving a fair bit of discussion and was touched upon in NOS' outstanding blog on the now-injured Iongi. I thought it could be better discussed in isolation where some may like to offer their observations over the years of similar compariso

It is a little known fact that the new Eels coach, Jason Ryles, is a science-fiction writer. The Future is Now is a 2025 novel depicting a bet on the future of humanity, or more precisely a multi-generational cohort of mentally and emotionally fatigu
Whether we like it or not, as Eels fans we find ourselves again remaining ‘patient’ as results become secondary to experience for the remainder of 2025.

"No. They weren't swap deals.
These were three separate deals across two seasons. And JAC fulfilled the final year of his Storm contract in 2021. Smith was released in Nov 2020, Addo-Carr signed a future deal for 2022 in Dec 2020, and Meaney was…"
"Ohh one thing I wanted to add on Munster is that when you get up to marquee type money it's not just their skill set, an important criteria is the influence the player has on his teammates. Could you get a better leader than him?"
"I've been fairly committed to internal development so was reluctant to offer him as an alternative. Charlie Munger once said a young man knows the rules, an old man knows the exceptions and I think Munster is an exception.
He's everything we need…"
"I've mentioned Munster awhile back also counter there counter if it comes down to it give them Lomax for 26 as the sweetner for Munster 27 onwards of course there not having that and I mean that's the rub why should we take what there selling.
