    You don't think Russell is solid?

    Rumours and Stuff

    The people who are saying we should sign Brimson or Campbell are the same people if we did sign them would be saying they're too injury prone or small respectively. We don't need either. If we were to get anyone for next year we should be looking to sign an older fullback that is content with...

    Parramatta Eels Juniors

    The club has now posted a training video on their social media, something I don't believe they've done before. They're just making fun of us at this point.

    OT: Current Affairs and Politics

    Agreed but that's a lack of funding from tory governments, cuts to capital gains tax from howard before you even get to immigration, which usually increases under liberal governments. Blaming immigrants is the easy way out, as I said there are much bigger more fundamental issues at hand rather...

    OT: Current Affairs and Politics

    House and rent prices increased massively during COVID when there was virtually no immigration. There's a bigger problem at hand.

    Mike Wood reckons he's always the smartest person in the room. He has put questions to coaches in press conferences and been shut down pretty quickly. He has the unwarranted smugness of andrew voss and half the intelligence.

    "The chosen players have accepted their positions" this was on the 4th of October, why the secrecy?

    Not final squads but it's common practice. I think it's us, sharks, knights and warriors that haven't named summer squads. Per the Parramatta Eels Junior League Facebook page the players were notified a fair few weeks ago of their positions in the squad

    Squad succession

    I thought I had read that too but when I emailed the NRL they told me that there is no limit on how long the player is on a development contract *EDIT* re-reading this it says what type of contract a player is on is confidential yet they publish a list of this exact thing on their website, so...

    A bit ridiculous that we haven't announced the junior rep squads by now. Wonder why they have m haven't done so?

    He played Harold Matthews for the roosters in 2022 so still eligible for SG Ball next year

    I was informed that we were clearing the decks for Matt Arthur so this is definitely an odd signing

    None of those things will help us win in 2024. Any decisions we make now will not help us win in 2024.

    It's advantageous because he's had insight from a very young age on what it takes to be a first grade player. He's been lucky that in school holidays that he's done fitness runs with the first squad. That's not to say he hasn't worked incredibly hard, I've seen him play he's a very hard worker...

    Martin plays like the penrith wingers too. He may not be the tallest but he doesn't hold back in his ruck runs or when he's going for the try line. I'd rather have someone a bit undersized who gives it their all than someone who's massive but jogs into the line and shows no urgency

    So the coach created losses but they were on a 4 game win streak? Going back at the draw the Flegg had won 4 in a row, then had 2 losses and 2 byes in 4 weeks. They then won when Penisini, Sanders, Tuivaiti and Fualema were introduced against the raiders. What is a conspiracy though is that...

    Injured his hand through the SG Ball season. Like Wiremu in first grade was getting better the longer he was forced to stay on the field.

    I'm about the same. Blackburn hasn't been on the field for me to give him a rating, he has a bit of the Loizou's in that he's off the field every 2-3 weeks for something different. I'd bump Penisini up, he was excellent in Ball before succumbing to injury and then was going well in Flegg before...

    It's not just a fact that within the club but other clubs are in on it too. Parra haven't won an SG Ball competition since 2017, haven't even made the finals the previous 2 years. Then all of a sudden big bad Matt Arthur and his rogue gallery come along and they not only win the SG Ball...
