Social Blog Guidelines

So this is your area to discuss non-Football topics.

The goal is, for those who wish to have discussions beyond footbal, to provide a forum for you to do so, all-year long.

However, this area is being provided on the following principals.

The social blogs stick to our site guidelines and code of conduct.

All blogs should respect the fact that Parramatta and 1Eyed's community is large and diverse. Blogs that are divisive or disrespectful to any members of our community will be deleted.

Be aware that blog headlines are on the front page, so they should be written as such; ie not deliberately inflammatory or offensive.

This area will be moderated more liberally than the football blogs, but all the code of conduct rules replies. ie no abuse, offensive images, etc.

For those of you who enjoy going beyond footy, I hope you enjoy this new area of the site.

You need to be a member of 1Eyed Eel to add comments!

"Samrani is a winner...it would be interesting to see his W/L record with him in the team.   Penisini has had a good NRL career so far...he is not a world class centre or even one that can be a clutch player ...hes best games are solid 7/10..

"Lets get real, he has one option that works for us, include him in the 19 and do not put him on unless Moses has a HIA/Injury/ or a rep game.
We cannot carry his defence....wakey wakey hands off Snakey......"

"Saints looked primed for an upset leading 20-18 with twenty to go. But then from 61’ to 74’. Thirteen minutes. Boom.  Saints 4 errors.  Storm 4 tries.  A Faalogo hat-trick.  22 points. Game over.  Storm 46-20. 
Saints imploded under Storm's…"

Parra fan on The Hill replied to Offside's discussion Samrani vs Penisini
"Other way round if it were to be. Penisini is too slow for the wing. 
Wouldnt drop Simo. His hit ups are good and he works hard.
Anyway..Samrani 1st drop for injuries or suspensions. Not bog average Brian Kelly.

"With over 100 nrl games in difference with samrani and will P .  I like samrani puts himself in the game and has a physical presence about it. Will has definitely worked on increasing his pace and defence but Samrani not that far behind him now . "

"Broncos attacked our halves and backrow spot in attack. They didn't actually test our centres defence other a couple times with Russel vs Staggs. I don't think it's fair to compare the Storm and Broncos game. "

Clintorian replied to Offside's discussion Samrani vs Penisini
"The right edge definitely looked more stable with Samrani, but it's hard to compare as Storm and Broncos are two different sides at the moment.
I would consider Samrani at right center and Penisini right wing, with Simmo dropping out."

Samrani vs Penisini

Hard to compare but I think the right edge looked better with Samrani on the weekend.There is no doubt Will has alot of talent but he looks like one of those players who would excel somewhere else since his debut he hasn't really been challenged for…

Ryles/Moses comments on Pezet

Did anyone else notice in the post-game press conference that whenever the journos brought up Pezet, both Ryles and Moses seemed pretty reluctant to lean into the praise?Their body language was interesting. The vibe was basically, “he’s still a work…
