Met the great man at his Gerringong Pub today for the first time. What a gentleman! Thanks for all the great memories over the years Mick.

"There was a play, I think Eels last set close to Raiders line where Tapine was so far offside, he was almost with the Eels attack - it was blantantly obvious yet they refused to call anything"
"like many have mentioned the grit and ruck control were the highlight for me the compressed middle and discipline on the edge were definite standouts and a much deserved result for the grit on display.
The errors have been there since day 1 of this…"

"It's a joke. It's obvious who the refs want to win. With no 6 agains, the ref is basically saying that the Raiders were always back 10 and markers were square every single ruck for 80 minutes "
"I love Volkman's demeanour, he is so calm and level no matter what is going on in the game - at least that's how he appears on the outside. Moses doesn't do a good job of hiding his emotions and I believe it has an effect on those around him. I…"
"So happy for the win. They have played their guts out vs Knights, Dogs and Raiders so we deserved a win.
There is a lack of quality and playing their guts out won't save us when we can't complete sets because of park footy knock- ons.
We desperately…"

"He is a space cadet. Ryley gives us so much more."
"All the arguments and negativity....apologies guys what a WIN GO PARRA ....one thing we may fight and disagree a great night"
"Sanders showed tonight he has a long way to go still. He was average at best."
"Issue is, he is playing well lately, but also playing for a contract. If you can have him on a 1 year deal, sure why not. But on a long term deal could be a risk."
"The touchy called that one."
"Totally get where you're coming from. I can't help but think how good he can be when he wants to. "
"I understand where your coming from Angry but I still think we'd be better off using that roster spot for someone who will take that opportunity and prove they belong. He has a poor commitment level and professionalism."
"The forward pass one was a deadset disgrace. I was in line with it. Went back 2m"
"Oh my beautiful boys....a win! But getting punished by ziggy relentlessy with 6agains but alas none for us, our defence won us the game. and wthout a goal-kicker in the side. What about our 1st try. Samrani can do that, always surprising the…"
Remember Rodney Hogg
Rodney was a late arrival to Test cricket at age 27. Born in Victoria he was overlooked by state selectors and moved to Adelaide to find an earlier path to Shield.He was selected and within a year he was noticed by Alan Davidson who mentioned his…

DISGRACEFUL REFEREEING AGAIN!!!
I think it's fair to say the NRL has it in for us.No 6 agains for the Eels every game.This game with a few minutes to go, the ref clearly calls the marker not square on a delayed call, the Eels challenge and he says you can't challenge, it was a 10m…

Should we keep Kelma?
Unsure on his contract status but he's a damaging ball carrier lol. At worst he could come off our bench for punch

Game Day Blog R15 v Raiders: Response or Reward? (W15-12, Gritty)
Besides pride and bragging rights, the R.S. Cup is at Stake. Both met at Parramatta once in a blue moon. Twice in a decade. This is one to frame. Both are struggling. One win separates them. The Raiders have won two of their last five. The Eels…

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.
