You get what you deserve

We didn't deserve to win that.

Our attack is one dimensional we scored 2 scrappy tries from kicks.

Both Panthers tries came from repeat sets and individual efforts and poor defence.

Panthers were below their best but still better than us.

I still believe

Key stats from Rd 16

A hard loss to swallow.

Stats tell a tale of a Parra team that tried hard, but lacked punch through the middle and lacked set momentum especially from kick returns.

Keep in mind Penrith had 34 vs our 32 sets tonight .

We really lost the yardage battle

The Greatest Teacher - Is Failure.

But when will we learn

Wing and the no go forward

Our wingers were weak tonight. I think fergo needs to come back in. He burns  150m a game dunster is just to small and to light. I think you will see him back in the next game

Tom Opacic playing tonight?

Tom's brother has just been killed in a hit and run. Doubt he will be playing tonight.  Wishing the family and friends best wishes. 

Apparently it was deliberate and something to do with a prison love triangle. Can't copy the article at the moment.  

Marata to start. Junior to bench

As the title says.  Thoughts?

The game behind the game - player managers hold the real power

Would anyone be interested to see a club by club breakdown of their top 30 players and coach to see who holds the power at that club?

For my own interest I've started researching which players and coaches are managed by which player managers. 

Its int

Number 17

If the nsw cup is called off for the year I reckon the last bench spot will be very important for getting players like Hipgrave,Stone, Makatoa Smith minutes in 1st grade in most games this year most teams have 1 bench player who doesn't get big minut

Hi guys

Just took delivery on this today.

Resisted the urge to bust them out until I can hopefully toast a win for the eels tomorrow night.

• They are to celebrate the 40th anniversary of our first premiership 

They are called Jack's pale ale but just wond

Moses - Comes of Age or Not

Tomorrow we head into the begining of our run towards the finals. Its a big game against Penrith, and we will need our big guns to step up. Non more important than Mitch Moses. In 2021 he has racked up 15 games, 2 tries, 12 try assists, 9 dropouts, 5

What happened to Roosters?

Storm 46 - Roosters 0   What's gone wrong with the Roosters? Are the Storm that good or are the Roosters that bad? I've noticed since the introduction of the six again rule and the sin bin head knock/High tackle rule that a lot more results have been

What about Top Blog of the Month Prize?

Does anyone think this would be a good idea? A 'Top Blog of the Month' ? It would be the blog that attracts the most comments and the blogger would win a monthly prize. We would just have come up with some possible prizes for the winner. Any ideas? I

Junior Paulo

Interested to get some views on how people think Junior is going?

I thought in Origin 2 where he started, that he didn't really look for work and when he did take it up, he didn't look to offload, I can only remember him passing once and maybe one off

Moses favorite for Origin 3 - Cleary potentially out for the year.

Clearly definitely out of this Friday's night match, and almost certainly Origin 3 with a bad shoulder injury that could potentially end his season.  

Mitchell Moses is the favorite to make his debut in game 3 - Brandy Alexander SEN Radio.

Eels name NRLW Top 5

The Parramatta Eels have announced the signing of their top five NRLW players for the 2021 season.

Under an NRL plan to ensure the 2021 competition has an even spread of talent, a group of elite female players have been centrally contracted and are b

Dale Finucane

At age 30 you can argue his best years are behind him.

however this guy is a hard nosed competitor and out and out winner.

how you'd fit him in the cap and roster is another arguement but I'd have him at Parra in a heartbeat for what he would bring to

Is a loss this weekend unacceptable?

It's pretty well written that Cleary (their main man) is out, along with that the no crowd and a few of their players backing up from origin means Penrith won't be at full strength.

With all this in mind, is a loss really acceptable on our behalf?

If w

Who should we target to replace Fergo?

I've noticed that there's been a bit of talk on who we should sign to replace Fergo. With 600k we have a bit of cash to splash, so I have created a list of potential targets and their stats this year:

Mawene Hiroti (Cronulla Sharks)

Age: 22

Weight: 95kg
