"My take away - Olakau'atu is one hell of a player."
"Cut Kelly errors out his great. Story of his career "
"There are more changes that we can do, but after that first half we needed to do what Manly did second half and throw the ball around.
Manly have pace and energy and they exploited that.
The way we played against Titans would've probably worked…"

"My feeling exactly. Every team that is dominant has big packs. We have no go forward at all."
"Kelly will not be sacked, and he will be picked this week.
Ryles will persist with him due to his strong yardage carries that help us make metres in our first few tackles each set. However, Ryles needs to coach the errors out of Kelly's game.…"

"Kelly isn't the answer but he's completely acceptable in his current role. He gave 110% today and made some great plays. He put his body on the line. Put some respect on that. DeBelin also hung tough. Is he good enough? If he was the 4th bench spot…"
"Did you see him slice up Penrith twice today? "
"Agree, he bent the line a bit with his first few carries. His second stint he tried the Dylan walker role and it didn't work. Think they need to keep his role simple "
"Perhaps better for Funa-Iuta to take the Mataele route of becoming a full-time middle. Build up a little more and focus on that area."
"Yeh he is...you stoopid shitstirrer
"
"
"Think a bit harsh on de Belin actually. Felt his first stint was pretty strong. Paulo was ok, though moving him to the bench would help moving forward if we can get a starting Prop.
Kelly, though getting through work and trying, he is way too rocks…"

"Do you have to ask that before interacting on the internet because of parole conditions or have you just got to do it forever now?"
"It is what it is. We are really missing Browns defensive plays. Hopefully this new kid they have so much hype about is great. Just my opinion who thinks Smith would make a good lock. Using 2 creative players him and TDS helps our team. Smith has…"
"Great line"

Game Day Blog R8 v Manly: Back-to-Back Or Back to Reality? (L33—18)
Last week, the Parramatta Eels showed they can win with controlled rage and a plan. This week, they’re up against it again. History says so. Form says so. The bookies say so. The venue says so. “Fozball” says so. Last week’s win was fuelled by the…

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.
