Johnny Howard to run NRL!?

An independent commission to govern the entire ARL/NRL is looong overdue, I'm sure you'll agree. From what I've heard and read, the running of the game is a dead-set joke. Gus nearly has a fit every time he talks about it.Recently there has been a ge

Not too many changes...

I am looking forward to the 2010 season and anticipate some great new players. HOWEVER, history has shown that you need to lose one, to win one. I beleive that we should really be sticking to a very similar team for next year with only the necessary

Parramatta street parade

Everyone should get out to the end-of-season parade at Parramatta tomorrow. Obviously there isn't as much fanfare as what there would've been had we won on Sunday night; but the boys still deserve to be rewarded for a fantastic season.Street ParadeTh

No need for the video ref

Tell me this, how can you go through just about every game in 2009 (correct me if I'm wrong) and the ref inevitably has to use the video ref on numerous occassions because they can't /won't make the call. Archer is the main culprit for this and guts

Dear Mr Gallop

Firstly, yes I am a Parra supporter and yes im upset that we lost and yes, as is often the case when you lose, you can find a way to blame the loss on something other than football as the case may be here.I know that the general consensus is that peo

My Say

I just want to make a couple of points:1. The penalty in the 74th minute was the most appalling decision I have seen in 45 years of watching footy. I agree with others who claim it is motivated by the NRL wanting Melbourne to be successful.2. Melbour

Why we lost – my take

Why we lost the grand final? This question will be in heart and minds of PARRA fans for months to come. Some says Tony Archer‘s horrendous decision robbed us the GF, some say we conceded some soft tries. But this is my take on this. The first two qui

Jarryd Haynes Contract

Hey guys i know we definately don't want to lose him but do you think it would be worth asking to Jarryd to take a pay cut in the up coming negotiations. Maybe 2 million over 5 seasons? With some potential salary cap issues coming up i don't think it

The game is a disgrace

The game is a disgrace. You can't convince me that the game isn't about $$$$ and the battle with the AFL for market share. Put simply, the Storm have to be successful and making the finals 9 out of 11 times is unheard of, as for them being under the

Frank The Tank replied to Make Parra Great Again's discussion Latrell try?
"Yeah but that try was irrelevant to the final result 
It was just not in the spirit of the game IMO."

Mind you I think we found our 9, not sure about the 6."

Axel replied to Bert de Naturál✌️™'s discussion Tim Smith
"Enjoyed reading that article. Thanks for sharing Bert.
Almost forgotten about the talent around Smithy in that 2005 side. Too much to expect from a rookie half to carry that side to a title. The expectations of him must've been unbelievable.
I hope…"
