Tonight's halftime entertainment, or lack of!!

For a 70th birthday I thought the half time entertainment was really poor. Come on Bernie. I don't want to see a guy kicking goals to win money.

Forgotten men in Parramatta’s purchase of Mitchell Moses play match winning roles against Tiger

Parramatta Eels stun Wests Tigers with second-half rally as Mitchell Moses exit awaits

Adam Pengilly APRIL 17 2017 SMH

Mitchell Moses almost undid his future employers and Brad Arthur wants him wearing the blue and gold within a week after the Parramatta Eels waged a stunning second-half revival to snap a four-game losing streak at ANZ

Cleary denies Moses release

Parramatta will have to wait at least another week to get Mitchell Moses after the West Tigers blocked his release on Tuesday.

The Eels want their new signing as soon as possible after he signed a three-year deal, but at this stage the Tigers are refu

Hall of fame

Can anyone clarify what the criteria is for selection into hall of fame?Surely Hindmarsh and Burt would be shoe ins !

Why We Need Peats...

It is clear to me that this year the defensive effort from the boys has been different.  The up and in this year is much more noticeable than last year but the biggest difference is line speed...

Watching the boys there is no clear leader of the d lin

Captain Taka

It may not have been noticed by everyone, but today when we were at what i thought was the lowest point of the season to date, Taka got angry. Taka got vocal. Taka stepped up and urged the team on. We have needed an on field captain for some time now

We finally have a good problem!

I am really confused as to how we can sort out our best 1-7

With Guth, Auvaa and Taka playing out of their skin today, Lelesiaou being absolutely dominant in u20s, French to return, Moses to join the team, Norman Jennings and Semi being must starters

Taka to 6 if Moses doesn't come in 2017

Like the heading says Taka was OUTSTANDING at 6 yesterday and i think ne needs to be there if Moses doesn't don the Blue & Gold in 2017.

I would put Gutho at 4 and let Hoffman and Auava fight it out for the wing spot.

Post Semi getting found guilty, Ho

Tim Mannah needs to lift big time

Look at Mannah's stats for today's game.

A paltry 28mins for 68m from 7 runs. That's just not good enough from our co-captain who's meant to lead the way and be one of our best forwards. Less than half an hour of game time is pathetic to be brutally h

What's up with Corey Norman

Does he seem injured. He's not running the ball anywhere near as much as he was the 1st 2 games. He went from 2 man of the match performances to zip. Is there too much pressure on him? He just hasn't been himself the last 4 weeks and that reflects on

Replacements for injured players

Both Peni Terepo and Frank Pritchard are injured and we obviously need more players, so why doesn't BA put in players that are young and can learn. Players like Marata Niukore, Kelepi Tanginoa and Alex Twal. I don't know about Tanginoa but the other

Rd 7 Post-Game Stats Blog v Tigers

It was an ugly win but a much-needed win, as the Eels came back into the winner's circle after numerous straight defeats. 
Was it a game of two halves or was there a clear indication as to where & why the game was won? Let the stats speak for themsel

Defence Line Speed-Major Problem

When Beau Scott came to Parra he brought with him experience, mental toughness but most importantly he brought in really good line speed in defence. Between Scott and De Gois our defensive line speed was excellent forcing rushed decisions from the op

Was Suaia Matagi Told To Turn The Intensity Down After Round 2 2017?

He seems to have cut back on the ferocity since round 2. Did BA or whoever tell him to cut back so he can last the season instead of possibly ending up on the scrap yard by mid season? 

Has gutherson won the fullback spot

As the title ask in your opinion has gutherson done enough to snatch the fullback spot off bevan. If moses came next week and when bevan is back from injury where does he go? I know it is now looking unlikely moses will come early just curious on peo

Well Done Peni "butterfingers" Terepo

shout out to Peni! seems like he has had a big off season and learned from his mistakes. Really improved from what I have seen so far of him this year, and most importantly, keeping his mistakes down. Keep this up and its "butterfingers" no more.

Grea

If moses comes this year. The forward rotation has to be this
