Gus: Eels Showed "Real Grit"
Curled up in the foetal position, the noise is getting louder from some of our punters. Drop Pezet. Move him on. He’s been labelled “a mistake” by some, along with the usual tomatoes thrown at R&R, the team, and the front office. But not Talyn Da Sil

Poppa's Corner: We made a mistake, lets admit it, move forward; and it looks like we are overrated!
This heading is probably something we don't like admitting to. Yes it implies criticism but I don't want to start looking for blame or scapegoats, just accept it and move on.
The main issue in my mind is the "Pezet" experiment. It hasn't worked and t

Timoko given the tap to explore options
Should we have a crack at Matt Timoko, they have let him explore options. He is the kiwi center. Has flaws in his game, but under new structure Ryles can improve him

Where do we see the EELS finishing?
Just eager to see where everyone thinks we will place on the table come season end?As of now, I have us between 6th-10th, just depending on injuries and how much our middle defence improves throughout the year. Another factor is if we unearth some yo

Charlie Guymer send off
I know we won, but the Jacob Liddle "strip" penalty at the 24:21 to go mark needs to be called out as a failure of the ref's knowledge of the rules.
A penalty restart cannot legally occur until the referee has officially designated the mark. Yet, as t

Sneaky ploy which makes Panthers defense so good.
Willie Mason is onto something. The Panthers give away a set restart on the first tackle if they lose the contact. They value getting their line set, and not allowing the opposition any momentum that they're prepared to give away a 6 again on the fir

Crystal Ball Time: 2026 Predictions for the Parramatta Eels
It might have been Kerry Packer who once said words to the effect: if you can get more than fifty percent right, you’ll be King of the World. Alas, there could be some Nostradamuses among us.
Will we make the finals and keep improving? What are the

This guy free to speak to other clubs soon
Thats how lacklustre the people running recruitment and retention roll. Our best prop, yet he can talk to other clubs in a few months, and were extremely short on go forward props.
When he was only signed until 2027, I honestly couldn't believe it. A

Jonah Pezet so far
Only 3 games into his eels career, plenty of ups and downs from Pezet but for the most part he seems a solid young half. His defence needs a lot of work but not sure moving to Brisbane and facing all of that pressure is going to help him. Looks like

How do we shape our forward pack for the rest for 2026
3 games this year have all had one thing in common. Paramatta have started all games horribly as they have been rolled through the middle by the opposition with ease.
This has resulted in JDB being dropped. However, JR said JDB still has an important
