    2011 ROUND 9: Rabbitohs v Panthers

    Gol for the Panthers --- Hicks and Stones I've never been inclined to abuse Parramatta players from the stands, something my fellow supporters find baffling since I am so ruthless about them over a beer at the pub or on the lounge watching the game. Behind their backs, I'm like a teenage girl...

    2011 ROUND 8: Dragons -V- Panthers

    Gol for the Panthers, who he doesn't exactly love right now. The NRL version, my teammates, they've got nothing to worry about. Or do they? --- LOW STAKES Parramatta's ill fated grand final run in 2009 is still one of the best times of my life, result excluded. Young (well, younger)...

    2011 ROUND 5: Ninjas -V- Panthers

    Gol pulls on his mercifully tasteful Panthers jersey for a late run. --- UGLY AS SIN After several years of New South Wales Origin failures, it's understandable that my sky blue jersey doesn't come out of the cupboard too often, at least not to be worn in public. Deciding this week to...

    2011 ROUND 4: Panthers -V- Rabbitohs

    Gol for the Panthers. --- The Crystal Ball Recently the SMH put together a 'brains trust' of prominent figures in the dominant Australian sports, plus soccer, to indulge in some crystal ball gazing to figure out where their sport will be in ten years time. Most were aiming for the stars, AFL...

    2011 ROUND 2: Panthers -V- Titans

    Gol for the Panthers. -- Three Prong June 22nd, 2001. Round 17. In front of 23,097 fans Luke Burt scored a hat-trick as Parramatta destroyed Newcastle 40-0. On that night I fell in love with the long haired surfie winger, who last weekend broke the all time record for tries scored by an...

    2011 ROUND 1: Bluebags -V- Panthers

    Gol tugs at the midsection of his new, unfamiliar Panthers jersey, cursing the misunderstanding that saw one X removed from his XXXXL. --- Nobodies Fantasy "What?" I doubt the elderly woman standing with me at the bus stop appreciated my telephone etiquette, but the man on the other end of...

    Round 5 Bluebags v Eels 2010

    Gol for the Eels -- Playing Games The NRL markets itself rather well. Their pre season ad campaigns haven't really missed the mark since the days of 'Blow that whistle, ref' and they push their marquee games and events well. This season they put their mind to improving club membership...

    Round 4 Eels v Dragons 2010

    Gol for the mighty Eels. --- The Seer Israel Folau is considering going to rugby union and the Melbourne Rebels. I for one am absolutely shocked, since he claimed back in 2008 that he took less money than the Melbourne Storm were offering so he could move up to Brisbane and be closer to his...

    Round 2

    Gee, didn't realise I'd racked up 40 games, thinking about it, thats a fair bit of writing. Hopefully I'll crack the half century this time next season.

    Round 3 Titans v Eels 2010

    Gol for the Eels --- Does rugby league realise how lucky it is? The Australian sporting market is a small one. Yes, we are a sports crazy nation, but even if every one of our 22 million population were sporting fanatics, we still wouldn't come near the sporting markets of America and...

    2010 Round 2. Eels v Roosters

    Gol for the Eels. --- The more things change, the more they stay the same. Yet again after three rounds, people are asking 'what is wrong with Parramatta?' Despite the pre season hype I'm left with that same feeling of disappointment as my club starts another year with lacklustre...

    2010 Round 1. Eels v Panthers

    Gol for the Eels. --- '50,000' Paul Osborne's original estimation for the season opener of 2010 was ambitious, but he entitled to feel a little miffed that the loyal, passionate fans of the NRL, fresh from an off season membership drive that saw Parramatta club memberships nearly double in...

    Round 6 (2009) EELS vs ROOSTERS

    Gol struggles out onto the field for the Eels, running out in a tracksuit to beat the cold. --- Coping With Loss Saying goodbye is tough, no matter the circumstance. From lovers parting ways to having to throw out your favourite pair of old socks, letting go is often the most difficult...

    Round 5 (2009) EELS v WARRIORS

    Gol runs on for the Eels with his pants tied extra tight. --- Outside the Box Over the one hundred years it has existed, rugby league has grown into the iconic sport of two states in Australia, and the national sport of worldwide powerhouse Papua New Guinea. While many sports, such as...

    Change of Entry Conditions @ Parramatta Stadium

    I made the mistake of buying chips last night, lukewarm, soggy and generally disgusting, I'd say sometimes you need a reminder of why you don't do something, but I'm pretty sure I don't touch the stove when it's on just to make sure it still burns me, so I'm not sure why I bothered with this...
