Where Team Gutho is going wrong

To all who were present, it was clear that a Fortress was born on Monday afternoon.

At the last General Meeting when those agitating for an all-in general election got the opportunity to put their proposal to members, I got up to say one thing. I begged those supporting the proposal to make this their last final effort. If the membe

Fluke or future?

Everyone I've spoken to that was lucky enough to be at Bankwest Stadium on Monday has agreed that there have been few better nights to be an Eels fan. It was at once a fairy tale, a party and a celebration. The big question is, was it an omen?

Well done EVERYONE - Blue & Gold Army

Today I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing the sheer joy that comes when the football gods play fair.  The Script was already written, but some chapters went missing.  We had our hurdles losing FERGO, ALVARO and having SUTTON as our referee.

Outstanding victory to open the new stadium. A moment to remember for the rest of our lives.
