Metcalf Dragons bound.

Posted by Eli Stephens on May 14, 2026 at 10:45am

Bulldogs have pulled out of the race for Metcalf and his asking price is around 1 million dollars. Dragons most likely spot but to get him immediately I wonder if this means they will allow Sua to join us early to free up cap space to get Metcalf immediately. Just seems logical

      Ooh, can I help? So, Chiefy wants Daniel Anderson back as GM so the Eels can go spoon, 10th, 12th? Oh yeah, also so that the Eels can breach the salary cap, get fined half a million, and get docked competition points.
      
      Please, Chiefy, we would all really love to hear why THAT is the kind of management you want at the club?

        I don't want Anderson i want Richardson. Been saying ut all along
        
        Either you guys put your case forward on mark o'neill or don't comment.
        
        These are your opinions

        Issues with Richardson were pointed out. Galvin and Luia were lost under his watch or under eye conditions of contracts he made, for instance.
        
        If we can critique MON for Brown's get our clauses then Richardson is on the hook for same. What do you make of that?

        Personally if I'm replacing MON I'm chasing Braith Anasta. I believe he has the gravitas, respect and pull that we need to get things done

        AE, i actually do not mind that pick. Being close to Ryles if a spot was to open up is a realistic option.

        I doubt he would uproot his entire professional life to be our GM. I can't think of a single realistic reason why this would happen. He seems happy with his life as is.

    Well Anderson is Head of recruitment. MON is GM. Two different roles.
    
    So shouldn't you be asking who do we prefer out of Anderson and Rogers?

  They've over paid on more than a few.

The Parramatta Eels vs Melbourne Storm Rivalry

Ahead of the game this weekend I thought I would do a video on my Youtube channel about the rivalry between Parramatta and Melbourne. What started off as a grudge match has slowly turned into a bitter rivalry over the years and the Zac Lomax thing…
