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!

"Polley got injured as well. Looked like a hmmy or knee injuries. Was assisted of the field which is not a good sign. Started the year injured. Returned and got injured. Returned this week and injured again. Holy."

"I reckon he's made of tougher stuff. Not everyone wants to dip when things are tough / The next month will tell us a lot about where we are actually at. 2-2 after this scheduling isnt all bad. "

"The rest of the NRL are making up the numbers to Penrith at the moment. Even then, at some point Cleary will purposely have them a little bit underdone to not peak too early and slow everything down and they will still win."

"Doesn't look interested? Are you kidding me? I would say he is trying to do too much, trying to score on every play. You cannot watch that game and think he doesn't give a damn. Excuse his performances? Not at all, but come on."

"I wonder if Junior has been tapped on the shoulder for 2027. He's played like a pillow first month of the comp. No real desire to be physical from him. Hes been shown up by a kid in our side let a lone the opposition. "

"They didn't find Jenkins, they brought him back after he left Penrith for more secure game time at Newcastle and failed out of the Penrith system. He played Newcastle park footy then Ron Massey and Penrith got his confidence up."
