Poppas Corner: Delusions, Not Good Enough — While Errors Exposed Again

The reality is we were simply not good enough.

The Bulldogs smashed us in the forwards. They were relentless.

We did a remarkable job in line defence up to 20 minutes to go, but the writing was on the wall well before Galvin came on.

The Ice-Cold Assassin Shows: Heart Isn’t Enough

“He just killed us," Moses shrugged. Killer sidesteps, jimmies, double pumps and sideline conversions. 40/20 daggers. Nathan Cleary, the ice-cold assassin. He didn’t just lead — he sliced through like a surgeon with ice in his veins.

How Gould hoodwinked Eels to sign Galvin

Parramatta Eels believed they were on the verge of signing teenage star Lachlan Galvin after positive talks with his agent during their win over Manly. The club offered a lucrative deal and a clear development path alongside Mitchell Moses. However,

Player & Team Review

1. Iongi - great game. Ran hard with his footwork. Solid under the high ball. Real player off the future.
2. Russel - Moved to centre and defended very well as he has recently. But unfortunately today his catch and pass went missing on 2 occassions. Its a n
