Poppa's Corner ; "We are no worse than anyone else" "yes we are" and our goals need to be higher and better...FULL STOP

Last week I headed a blog implying/saying, we made  mistake's lets move on.....I was a pessimist to an extent, but not suicidal. Just very critical of Pezet and the knock on effect in losing balance.

Yesterdays game against Penrith has a lot of physco

Timoko told to look elsewhere

Looks like Raiders are moving on Timoko, he's basically a better version of penisni. Wouldn't hate him in blue and gold lol

This is frightning

Today minutes before H/T in Ball one of our own went down, and stayed down.

Great concern for the player, while he was being cared for on the ground for 65 minutes.

It took that long for the first ambulance to arrive, where the Ambos took over and took

How are we so Far Behind?

How Are We So Far Behind?

Another season outside the top 8—and honestly, it feels like we’re further away than ever.

It’s not just that we’re losing games. It’s the gap. The difference between us and the top teams feels like light years. What’s worse i

The "want"

Its not in the who, the why, or the how its in the want. How can  It take 2 front rowers and a large hooker to put down a winger its in the want. How can a so so 2nd rower run thru 3 first up tacklers , side step a 5/8 and get a pass away, its in the

Game Day Blog R4 vs Panthers: Disrupt the Disruptors? (L48-20)

In tomorrow's Battle Of the West, Vincent Lombardi almost foreshadowed the Panthers sixty years ago when he said, “Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence."

The Panthers seemed to have forgotten they're not

Eels hooker opens up on thriving one-two punch combination

Ryley Smith has opened up about the apprehension of Tallyn Da Silva joining the club, but has said they both lean on each other and it works well. Seems Ryles has definately been clear in communication with both lads over their roles to make them hap

Ragged dolled every week?

It seems to be boys V men entry week watching Parra play. We simply have been ragdolled every week. We have skill with the ball but are always chasing given we are on the back foot.

Does the Centre of Excellence have a weights room ... we look weak an

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

The Story Of Colonel Jack Argent

When Parramatta ran out onto Cumberland Oval on 12th April 1947, one of the men in the crowd of 5,266 supporters was Jack Argent.

One half of the two Jacks that had built Parramatta achieved his goal of seeing a local side in the New South Wales Rugb

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
