Round 18 - Climbing the NRL ladder

Parra can jump 3 teams next week if Raiders (home) lose to the Knights, Sharks (home) lose to the Dragons by 8 points or more and the Panthers (home) get thumped by the Roosters 34 points or more.

10 Straight Points!

Well, I want to start by saying that I am far from impressed with tonight's win. Given the tigers were without their two best players as well as their halfback, tonight was a golden opportunity to put this team to the sword and really rack up a score

3, 2, 1 Vs Tigers

3. Semi - Tryscoring sensation

2. Sandow - Helped set up Semi

1. Mannah - 175m and was our main source of go forward

Honourable mention to Ma'u and Norman

Sandow to UK in 2016

Holden Cup: Rd.17 vs Wests Tigers

Two changes for the Eels with Alex Twal and Tyrell Fuimaono out of action due to representative honours on Wednesday. Tepai Tepu-Smith and Craig Field come into the team for them.

Hodkinson signs with Newcastle

Big news on player movement... I was wondering if he would join Titans or Knights.

Any thoughts

The decline of the Dragons

They're currently losing 6 - 18 to the Cowboys & it's a Dragons home game - half an hour to go. Thurston's out, but Cowboys are still getting the job done. Looks like the Dragons have peaked early, simply through strong defence. Perhaps big George Ro

Eels Heritage Jersey

Did anyone else really like the heritage jersey we wore last game?

I thought it looked really good and played homage to the jerseys of old.

I think the club should strongly consider making it our alternate/away jersey next year or even start wearing it

T-Rex on the way out at the Bulldogs. Would you have him back?

I remember the outrage when we let another junior go and he quickly made a name for himself in the NSW and Australian teams.According to RLW he is free to leave the Dogs.Would you have him back at the Eels. He is only 26 and could have another good 5

De Gois - fitness test on Sunday

A minute silence for AFL coach at Brookvale Oval?

Not that there's anything wrong with that, actually it does show respect, but it was strange too see the NRL recognizing the AFL. I wonder if the AFL would do the same?

SIGNING RUMOUR - JAMES HASSON

I've heard this morning that Parra have either signed, or are ready to sign James Hasson from Manly. Plays front row. 

Ashley Taylor

Really hope we are looking at this kid, can play a game of footy! There are some people that are just footballers and he is one of them. Would love to have him as halfback with foz at 6 and Norman at 1. He is a talent way above that of having Gordon

My Take on the Foran Signing

Hi Fellow Supporters,

I was a member of this site about a while ago and have been following the site ever since.  I am really excited about the times ahead for the club so I needed to join up again and get on the Eels roller coaster with fellow lunati
