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.
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.
Rivalry, hmmmm. More like we have been their whipping boys for 90% of games. Especially finals.
I suppose most of us do actually hate them though.
