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 tipped it over the edge for me. Feel free to watch the video and leave your comments about the rivalry.

Thanks, Steel.
Don't worry about cheap shots and knockers, mate.
Keep going. I've watched some of your videos.
You've put thought and research into it.
Thanks for sharing that, Steel.
Thanks for watching the video, it is much appreciated.
Steel, I'm actually watching it right now. Keep it up, mate.
As you've pointed out we've never beaten them in the finals (0-7). We've also lost the last 7-straight against them.
It was satisfying getting the better of them in the Lomax saga, and it explosed the ugly underbelly in the game. But I don't think that's even the tip of the iceberg. There is a lot of shady stuff in the game.
Would saying this dude in England only ever posts here to promote his youtube channel be a cheap shot or a valid one?
Neither. I would say it's misleading, or false, but borne from good intentions. You mean well and are expressive (entertaining, intelligent and witty). The thing is Steel doesn't only post to share his video content.
ok. my bad
I post a lot actually and have been a member of this site since 2018, I've only ever post Youtube links on here for my season preview/reviews of Parramatta's year.
Genuine question Steel, do you support Parra. With what team/teams do you align yourself?...and this link is neither a preveiw or a reveiw...just sayin'
I've supported Parramatta my entire life, so well over 30 years. I was there as a 11-year old crying my eyes out when Parramatta performed the ultimate choke against Canterbury in the preliminary final, only to repeat that the following year on my birthday against Melbourne. I was there sat in front of the telly in 2001 for the grand final as I sat there in anticipation only for that to be destroyed in 40 minutes. I was there at Stadium Australia for the 2005 Preliminary final against NQ where we lost 29-0. I was there for the wooden spoon years where people literally laughed at me in the street for wearing anything Parramatta related. I was also at the 2017 elimination final against the same opponents at the same venue. I've also been there for the good times as well. I have done well over 50 videos about Parramatta on my channel, I hope that pretty much explains everything.
