Eels coach Brad Arthur reacts to controversial golden point loss to Brisbane

They didn't get the rub of the green but Parramatta coach Brad Arthur isn't seeing red after a dramatic 17-16 golden point NRL loss by Brisbane. Brad Arthur addresses the media after the Parramatta Eels clash against the Brisbane Broncos in Round 24.

Loss to Broncos - Blessing in disguise?

Of course a loss sucks but I was looking at what is to come over the weekend and Round 25.

I think we all agree that facing the Broncos in a semi is 10 times better than facing a battle hardened and experienced Sharks team who know all about do or die

Broncos

Honestly how good are their young players with the help of the thoroughbreds they will stay at the club for the next 10 years no doubt im predicting big big things for the brox over the next few years.

Imagine if we had a crop of players and the abili

Manly Lose Tom Trbojevic With Pectoral Injury

Manly star Tom Trbojevic has left the field early in the side's clash against Melbourne with a pectoral injury.Replays suggested Trbojevic suffered the injury reaching out to tackle a high-flying Josh Addo-Carr, who crossed for Melbourne's first try

Missing Person Please Share

I love the bloke but last two games when it really mattered he went hiding.

And if you watch the press conference BA eluded to it without naming names.

3-2-1 vs Broncos

3. Kane - 160 m and a great forwards try

2. Sivo

1. Fergurson

Honorable mention to Alvaro - did OK today - I usually criticise him so credit where it is due

Dylan Brown big fail tonight

Moses got zero help from Brown tonight - in a game where a plan B half was essential (as Moses being well tagged by Gillett).

A severe MIA from Dylan drastically reduced our chances of victory in the clinches.

0-3 going into the finals?

So what does the Brisbane loss (heartbreaking loss at that) really now mean? Given we have Manly next week, there’s a very real likelihood we’re going into the finals having lost 3 in a row. Can’t be good for morale, confidence and therefore, form.

We Need More Forward Thrust To Make Sure Moses And Brown Have Time And Space To Kick - Enter Utoikamanu And Kaufusi

Our bench needs to be revamped.

We need more thrust which our bench tonight was unable to deliver..... Gower, Terepo, Alvaro, & Taka, putting immense pressure on the kicking games of Moses and D Brown from the Broncos defenders rushing through.

R24 v Broncos preview: Eels need to handle the fight better; 5 points

In the Eels’ Friday night’s game at Suncorp Stadium, the Broncos are rightful favourites $1.65 to $2.20 and hungry to stay alive and in the top 8.

On the form showed last week the Broncos would win and probably by a safe margin. Last week both teams

Round 25 v Sea Eagles if Raiders beat Sharks

What will be the point of this game? Eels will finish 6th win or lose.

Broncrefs 17 beat Eels 16

In another yet overwhelming display by the NRL referees they are now hot favourites to win this year's, 2019 Telstra Premiership! Although the Eels scored 3 tries to 2 the difference between the Broncrefs and the Eels was the Moses shepherding penalt

Perfect time for BA to blow up at Presser

This would the ideal time to blow up about the refereeing performance. Highlight the mistakes and in return hope we get a better than 50/50 calls from next week onwards.

I doubt it will happen.

Field goal

We deserve to lose due to that last tackle defensive effort falling off tackle after tackle.  That said the field goal was questionable. As per NRL rules the opportunity for our defenders to chase the kicker didn't allow our a player a chance to get

Could we have had David Fifito 2 years ago?

Reports suggest that David Fifito  agreed to join the eels as a 16 year old but at the last minute the club baulked at paying a $100,000 sign on fee believing this was excessive for a 16 year old who had yet to play NRL. If this is true it is a deves

F.M.D. Our season couldas Tomorrow fortnight ( yes only 15 days if our first and only final game is the first one no doubt to be fixed for Thursday fortnight )

Yes . Like life each footy season comes and goes so quick !!! This  season could finish for the Eels as close as Tomorrow fortnight ( yes only 15 days,  should our first final  game be the first of the finals and allocated on Thursday fortnight ). Th

Takas/ Bench

Ok, i've been one of Takas biggest critics . He's a lazy, ill disciplined footballer. BUT in recent weeks he's done a solid job as a back up winger and cut some of the shit out of his game without being perfect. He's done a job. Regardless of how thi

Cheated

Sure we didn’t play that well, but we were cheated big time. Fergos first try wasn’t a forward pass not even close. Even the commentators said it wasn’t forward . It didn’t even float forward let alone go forward out of the hands.  F@$%ing refs f d u
