    P.Sim - Great Summary of Parra

    HJ, I was told in pre-season that the fundamentals of the Eels season for the year ahead would be: 1. Finch would be the dominant figure in the side. All of the plays would revolve around him. No doubt this was driven largely on the fact that we didn't have an experienced 5/8 outside of him. 2...

    Official Wenty Magpies 2011 thread.

    Who did Mataele come in for? Did Danny Howard play. I've got a bit of an opinion of him and I'm surprised he's not starting? And how about Oakey?

    Official team lists for this week.

    MITS, the NRL bought a solution called StayinFront as a standard platform for the entire league, although the clubs get the option of whether or not to use it or not. It's a web-based solution and from what I read came about as a result of an extensive consulting analysis. I don't really get...

    Sorry Manly - you bought a dud !!

    Seriously, the kid is 20 making 130 metres on average per game while playing out of his preferred position. He also averages about 15 hitups per match - stats that would beat out 90 per cent of wingers in the country. That $200k will be maximum consideration with Manly and if he does enough to...

    How many fans do you think we actually have

    State of Origin rates about 3 million - so lets say that is the pool of available "fans". So on average each team would have around 200,000 fans. I'd suggest our fan base would be higher than average.

    The shoe on the other foot.

    I think we'd still field a credible team who would hold their own: Burt Williams Tautai Reddy Grothe Keating Finch Cordoba Keating Paulo Huaraki Lowrie Wagon Oake BWright Gulavao Mortimer Assumes the following players 'representing': Riddell, Moimoi, Hindmarsh, Cayless, Hayne, Inu, BSmith...

    Mateo Vs Lowrie

    You do only have five hit ups every set of six, and in today's game your fullback and winger take two to three of those in general play. So I think it's actually more important to have a player like Grothe who can make you easy metres from there, rather than a trio of "metre eaters". But I do...

    eels v newtown prem. league

    Who was in the 8 that scored the try, Eela? I thought that was a pretty shaggy hair cut for JT! And who was the other starting prop then?

    Halfbacks - split from Michael Lett Thread.

    Andrew Johns isn't a good half, he's the best of all time. Jonathan Thurston has been struggling at club level for exactly the same reason and he's the current Aus halfback. But as Ron said combine that fact without a dominant forward pack and no half is going to impress, Johns included...

    Halfbacks - split from Michael Lett Thread.

    Ironically I'd suggest the first coach to pick on Tim was Michael Hagan, he had Clint Newton running at him all day when they played in 2005 and pretty much every coach did the same thing after that... Pete this is not particular to Tim. Very few playmakers are able to have a good game when...

    Photos from open training session

    Yeh Lett is definitely third player from the left, you can see his tat and ML on the shorts so its definitely IH.

    1eyed eel: Huaraki, Mateo and Lowrie in line for Widder's role

    Hey Kornstar, I've got a couple of cracker Blake Green pieces still to post next week. I reckon you'll find them particularly interesting!

    Uaisele & Green will never be First graders

    JK, I can't fathom how anyone who has seen Blake Green regularly this year thinks he has no talent. You're also totally ignoring the fact that was close to our second strength Premier League side and 80 per cent of that side was 21 or under. Reddy 21, Etu?, Farrar 19/20, Tautai, 18, Inu 19...

    Marcus Perenara

    Did everyone see Marcus just laying down the law to the guys in extra time, he's definitely taken on a leadership role in that side. I still think his best position is hooker, but its very tough to break into the NRL ranks at hooker these days. I think he'd go alright as well, as a Ben...
