"Nice Blog.....with all that is going on with the club these are great stories and a reason why we remain fans.."
"I guess all that information over the years stating that the coach asks for a certain type of player and then RnR get one.
Now I assume JR can then veto it but if they tell him it's that guy or no-one (or the best we can get) what choice does he…"

"Isnt it great we already on to 2027 and we not even half way ....SMH....Sunday what an embarrasing day for the club with all the celebrations around the 86 team......they should postpone it."
"Surely you can't be that naive to think that MON has more say in recruitment than Ryles. "
"100% agree. The FO executives is clearly prioritising and looking at the Balance Sheets results rather than the on field results. As long as the cash is coming in, they will feel that they are doing it right. Sadly, we cannot totally blame them…"
"Most of his first grade games came last year when really he shouldn't have been playing first grade yet, well not as much as he did at least.
He is very raw and should have been slowly introduced to first grade over last season and this but the club…"

"He has really bad technique, he plants his feet early and then leans (sometimes falls) in the direction the ball carrier runs using just his upper body to basically hug the ball carrier. This very poor technique (don't know how he made it past…"
"Imo Kelma is one of the laziest defenders we've ever had... honestly think he has been lucky with us to have had so many first grade games. Im actually surprised he gonna try his luck elsewhere, unless it's just us encouraging him to do so. Tata!"
"An opposing club that picks him up thinks our coaching and defensive systems are the issue or otherwise they are passing. Just like how Penrith took blaize Talagi despite him being garbage in defence with us. But as we saw against bulldogs Penrith…"
"Where do we need to recruit? List of player and where we have cover and where we dont. Brackets are the cover player

"Agreed, Kautonga's still very young and inexperienced. We have seen glimpses of what he is capable of, but clearly needs much more development. Ideally he'd spend some stints in Cup honing certain skills, but we don't have anybody to take his place."
"Cheika would be interesting, he definitely has a presence. Not sure he has the credentials, but it would definitely be worth the exploration.
As for MON, I agree the actual job description he applied for (it was online) and the statement the club…"

"I had the same problem, I had to sign all the raffle tickets I sold.....it was hard in those days when it was only pen and ink.
Of course what they didn't know was all those raffle tickets had my name on them !!!!"

"The job description MON was hired under and the club statement of his appointment contradict your view Michael.
Of course the coach is involved. But the buck stops with the GM of Football as per the clubs statements."

"LB, I am very impressed, here you are just turned 19, have your own son and to think 10 years ago you were still collecting autographs.
That means you got your teachers accreditation when you were about 15....smart boy. Can't wait to see you when…"

"As far as player retention goes, it's up to the coach who we chase, sign or re-sign, not MON."
Irony is Even Deader

What another Boring Year for Eels Fans
Towards the end of the 2025 NRL season I think a majority of Eels fans had some form of optimism for 2026 hoping it might be a possible top 8 position for the Eels. However, this year has turned into one of the worst so far on record with Eels…

LOL...another story with Freddie Truman and this time Australian Opener Bill Lawry on his first tour to England.
Lawry facing up against Truman who is playing for his beloved Yorkshire.
First 3 balls Truman coming of the back fence beat him all up, each time Bill Lawry said well bowled Mr Truman, showing all the respect of a youngster in his first game against the fast bowling legend.
4th Ball cleaned bowled.....Lawry says well bowled Mr Truman.....Truman reply's
"I laddie, shame I had to waste it on you!"
Here's one Poppa which may or not pass muster in our woke society. If thats the case I'll blame you for encouraging me! .Mark Waugh ws at 2nd slip when Kiwi Adam Parore came to the crease and promptly played and missed the 1st ball......Oh I remember you from a couple of years ago in Australia. You were shit then and you're f.....g useless now. Parore (turning around) said- "Yeah thats me, and when I was there you were going out with that old ugly cow. And now I hear you've married her, you dumb c..t"
Rod Marsh to Ian Botham: How's your wife and my kids
Botham to Marsh: The wife's fine, the kids are retarded
You're the winner A, thats the best yet!
LOL
Glenn McGrath to Eddo Brandes: Why are you so fat?
Eddo: Because every time I shag your wife she gives me a chocolate biscuit.
Mark Waugh to Jimmy Ormond: Look who it is, mate what are you doing here, surely you are not good enough to play for England.
Jimmy: That might be the case, but at least i am the best player in my family.
To this day that is the best sledge around.
Denis Lillee, Curtly Ambrose, Malcolm Marshall, Wasim Akram, Glenn McGrath.
Ooh ahh Glenn McGrath, is my favourite bowler I think. As Mick stated there are heaps of goooduns that were always great to watch. DK was awesome as were the others mentioned.
Did like Hoggy as well as Lenny Pascoe.
