Tigers second try shouldn’t have been given

Either the video ref was cheating, doesn't know the rules or has a tv worse than my 4 year old tv. Either way this was a wrong call. Tackles before having a chance to catch it.

What are everyone's thoughts now?

Are those who are leaning one way convinced as you were last week that a change at the top is needed. Or with a win, though not convincing, are we confident to see more good results leading into good teams and think BA will pull us through? At 12-0 f

NRL Market Watch 2022: Parramatta Eels’ plan to lock in Mitchell Moses for life

Parramatta has started contract negotiations that could lead to gun halfback Mitch Moses being signed to the Eels for the rest of his NRL career.

Moses, who turns 28 in September, is under contract for 2023 and is expected to take up an option in his

"Hasn't said too much" Eels star seeking clarity over future after 'very tough' month.

Nathan Brown has mentioned that BA hasn't really spoken to him. Not sure how to take that but i know what Brown means, tell him what he needs to do to get back to where he wants to be, not sure if BA is putting trust in Brown working it out himself o

Rohan Smith

Next eels coach. He is the chosen one.

Surely N.Brown is a better option on the bench then M.Makatoa

Surely N.Brown is a better option on the bench then M.Makatoa. 

I cant see what BA can see in M.Makatoa, even last night i thought he was very average and he has been all year.

When R.Matterson comes back in the 13 i think N.Brown should have M.Makatoa

Fittler denies pushback from Blues’ Panthers pack on RCG

Blues coach Brad Fittler has hit out at suggestions the Penrith players in the NSW squad pushed Reagan Campbell-Gillard out of the team because of a fall-out in clubland.

Fittler was surprised to learn former players had been pushing the line about th

Why don’t the video refs know this rule?

Nofoaluma second try in the corner was technically a no try. You can't lose it and ground in with your fingers or hand for that matter. You have to regrip it. Sure you can guide a loose ball down to the ground with your finger but you can't be holdin

A win is a win, maybe one that is very important

This was an important win, bounce back from a dismal performance. Even worse, we were down by 12 after 30mins. Stuck to grind a worked out way through. It is important as it is a win we should have gotten regardless, we have that now.

On a side note,

Enough is Enough

Even if we pull our fingers out and come back

This isn't a team that should play finals footy.

How much longer can BA stay in charge? 

When does start holding players other than N Brown accountable for our results?

R17 v Tigers: How Goes Sybil's Exorcism?

In the Captain’s Run media fronting, Shaun Lane was disarmingly blunt. “We got phased” by the Rabbits’ in last week’ 12-30 loss.

To many, it wasn’t a huge surprise that Rabbits made us their bunnies; stunned-in-the headlights. The Eels are one of th

WHO WINS COMP - NOT PENRITH

I've had a visit from one of the Footy Gods.

He told me the Panthers will not win the premiership this year.

Then he disappeared.

So if not the Panthers, who wins the comp this year?
