Social Blog Guidelines

Posted by 1Eyed Eel on December 15, 2018 at 7:11am

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!

Blue Eel replied to Eels2025's discussion Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

"I don't know. I must admit i find this hard to take, immediately after a performance like that.

Does it show any distress or embarrassment. Those are two things i'd like to see, surely players that want to compete for a premiership are a little…"

"The Eels in 1982 lost by 20 points to Manly who beat them 3 times that year but the Eels beat them in the Grand Final. They were also beaten by the Bulldogs by 22 points in 1986 but won the premiership"

Mallee57 replied to Eels2025's discussion Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

"Yes, but last year we had Dylan Brown ( who has great defence) and there was Lomax as well who made a big difference. I hope the Eels can turn this around. It's possible"

BEM replied to Eli Stephens's discussion Hopgood 2 week ban,

"They should challenge it.
He either gets off or gets two weeks.
If he gets two weeks, it's no big loss."

BringBackSemi replied to Eels2025's discussion Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

"Yes I know last night was shit. But lets face it, it's Round 1 against Melbourne in Melbourne. No other team has managed to beat them, and on top of the 2 sin bins, the 6 agains, having no match fitness, and the use of Joash instead of forward…"

BEM replied to Eels2025's discussion Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

"I had us finishing 12th-16th and last night reaffirmed that.
We have a quality halfback and the rest of the team are just average Joe's.
We have a average rookie coach and our front office has to be one of the worst in the NRL.
It wouldn't surprise…"

Hell On Eels replied to EA's discussion Take Aways from the game

"Storm scored 11-2 tries when they belted us 64-10 in 2019 and then 32-0 later that year: our worst vs that mob. Since 2022, it's been one belting after another: 46–16, 48–16, 56–18, and now 52–4. Lest we forget.
"

Michael W. replied to Eels2025's discussion Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

"The rules allow these blowouts. Playing with 12 for 20mins, 6 against, most on 4th or 5th tackle. No team can come back from that, especially when a team as good as Melbourne have 10 and 12 tackle sets. Playing catch up footy just compounded the…"

Nightmare Off-Season replied to Eels2025's discussion Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

"Sounds weird but not a lot has changed for me.
We were never a chance of genuinely competing for a Premiership in 2026 the moment DB left and we failed to replace him (Galvin, anyone else who’s an actual 5/8th).
No team has won a Premiership with a…"

Blue Eel replied to Roy tannous's discussion Attracting big names problem

"NO !"

Clintorian replied to Eels2025's discussion Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

"Honestly, I felt like we were done last night. I was absolutely ropable.
But after calming down and being a little more reflective rather than reactive, remember we started shit last year while missing Moses and had a NSW Cup team, and then came…"

Clintorian replied to Roy tannous's discussion Attracting big names problem

"We always knew Madge was going to be a big chance of getting Barnett, it was Madge who brought him into Origin in the first place that elevated his positioning. Hard to battle the big dogs, but I do know how you feel."

Clintorian replied to Eli Stephens's discussion Hopgood 2 week ban,

"Keep it simple. Tuivaiti to replaces Hopgood, then Teancum or Moretti gets the bench spot.
Keep Kautoga and Williams on the edges and don't disrupt the team positions too much."

Blue Eel replied to EA's discussion Take Aways from the game

"HOE, going further with history, that was our largest 1st round loss since 1963.
This was Jason Ryles biggest loss as a coach.
Storm 9 tries to our 1 try is one of the biggest differentials in tries ever between the two clubs.

"

Nightmare Off-Season replied to EA's discussion Take Aways from the game

"You were missing DB last night too, weren't you EA.

BlacJac replied to EA's discussion Take Aways from the game

Does anyone have hope for the rest of the season?

24 hours ago, I was so hopeful. I seriously thought we could push for a finals spot and be a serious darkhorse.I didn't think we'd beat Melbourne, but I thought we would put up a very good fight and come away with positives despite the loss. After…

One game only, same old story. 40 years of this rubbish (spoiler alert REALLY REALLY LONG POST)

One game only, same old story. 40 years of this rubbish. Every pre-season, big talk, everyone says this is our year. Sometimes we start okay, sometimes we get smashed like last night, 52-4 by Storm. Then the losses start, we lose all momentum, and…
