Cleary and Moses do not work as a combo....... when Sterling and Mortimer vied for the NSW job, they never picked them as a combo."

"This might sound unpopular, but Cleary is leading the Dally M's, kicked a 40/20 to win the game, kicked the ball that Tedesco scored from, scored a try and lifted the team......Oh and Moses should take his place because Moses has been only…"

"So I've learnt this morning that the rules around punishment are different for rep games. The same charge would have resulted in Ponga missing 2 weeks if this was an NRL game. On the one hand I get it, but on the other it comes across as though head…"

"To be fair though, Sualli had to 2 heads to avoid where Ponga only had 1"
"Mose will not be ready for game two I think"
"If we had a Walsh or Ponga at fullback that would be a great option. Cleary was terrific last night. He struggled early on being the only kicking option. The line speed (and the fact that everyone is offside in origin) really cuts down his time when…"

Podcast Debate: Have Your Say
Some fans want major changes and sackings at the club. Some want minor changes. Others think the club needs stability and patience. And some, like me, are strongly against calls to sack people like Jim Sarantinos and want to leave club decisions to…

Which players would you target as a value investment?
Which players in the NRL do you see as being a value investment that you would like to see Parramatta sign? Often when we discuss player signings, we talk about a player's rumoured market price and their current form. Is that how we should be…

This man "THE CROW" is my all time fav EEL. When I played rep league as a youngster I tried to mould my gam and goal kicking around him
Very classy player and man 👏🏻👏🏻👊😎
Theres the carlo kiss of death right there.
Mick, please be safe in the next few days/weeks.
😆😆😆 far out lol
Bit overrated though, wouldnt want him kicking a goal to save your life.
Wouldnt want him coaching to save your life either
i was just throwing out a few crumbs HKF, looking for a nibble
Nice one Garry, good to see you got out ok, rumoured to be a few bodies buried under the Gerringong.
Your opionion mate. To be honest It was mentioned by the rep coach back in 84 when I played school rep footy that I played a bit similar to the crow. My all time fav and always will be
There is a reason he is the first "Champion" of Parramatta. Played in all of our Grand Final wins. One of the all time greats and worthy of Immortal status. I laugh at anyone who knocks him as a goal kicker. He held the all time ARL/NRL point scoring record for years kicking leather balls from sand mounds. More importantly, a champion human being. Great photo Garry.
Also needs to be remembered he didn't start playing NSWRL until he was 26 so his total points scored could have been higher if he started earlier.
