    No Punching rule ruined the game

    Does anyone agree that the no punching edict ruined last nights game as a spectacle. Clearly there would have been a decent blue in the first half, but as we have seen in the past, once the blue is over, everyone settles down and plays footy. Last night just seemed to be a lot of players with...

    And in important news..........

    The Parra boys are going 40 days without shaving as posted by Hayne on that twitter thingy . As you were.

    Jake Mullaney

    This guy has been a revelation in a forgettable season. I can't see how we can't have him in the side next year - which will mean Hayne to five-eighth. He has stepped up to first grade standard easily and clearly belongs in firsts. His tackle and holding up of the ball to deny a certain Souths...

    No matter what you think of Burt....

    ....He is an incredible goalkicker! Not many tough ones last night I know, but all year we can count on nearly every try being 6 points. Has never kicked better. :clap:

    Has anyone noticed............

    ...That our shorts seem to be really long these days? Is that to fit more sponsors logos on them. We look like soccer players. This occurred to me when watching some of the classic matches on Fox and they were a lot shorter back then. Anyone watch the 2004 Eels v Knights match last night...

    I am now convinced....

    ... That Burt has to stay at fullback. Having his support play up the middle gives us a new dimension. I never thought I would say it but we have no choice. That means Hayne to 5/8, maitua to lock. That would give us so much more spark. Burt can can chime in when he needs to and does a good job...

    GEM Channel

    Does anyone watch anything on this waste of a channel? This is a High Definition channel and channel nine show nothing but 50 year old movies and other garbage. Meanwhile, all our footy, decent movies, news etc is all shown on SD. How disgraceful is it for channel nine to treat us this way...

    Firm but Fair as Kearney drives Eels

    March 11, 2011 Setting standards ... Parramatta coach Stephen Kearney has impressed the Eels with his calmness. Photo: Wolter Peeters ''HE IS hard, I am firm.'' That is how new Parramatta coach Stephen Kearney describes the difference between his style and that of Craig Bellamy, under whom...

    Old and dutiful to give Eels a wriggle on

    Parramatta believe their decision to sign up five gnarled veterans is already paying off, writes Daniel Lane. They're five weatherbeaten journeymen, and while it's fair to suggest the sun is setting on their careers, new recruits Carl Webb, Chris Walker, Casey McGuire, Chris Hicks and Paul...

    Speechless !

    It has been a couple of hours and I still don't know what to say to describe what I saw tonight. It was beyond inept. It was schoolkid stuff seriously. I have kept tight lipped after our previous losses but tonight was something else. Kickoffs going dead, no dummy half, throwing punches for no...

    Scoreless halves

    Does anyone have the stats on how many scoreless halves we have had this season? I would really like to know. I think it is about 9 or 10 times from memory - which equates to 5 matches. Anyone? I don't think we have scored a second half point in our last 3 matches!! Amazing!

    Searching threads or going to last post

    Is anyone else having issues with the above. When you "go to last post" in a thread - it takes you to the first post - not the last. But it only seems to happen on very long threads. And if you search all your posts, and select one, it does not take you to your post, again it takes you to...

    Tahu/Reddy must switch

    I really think Tahu has to be moved to the right hand side - and Reddy to the left. Enough is enough. Tahu is getting his hands on the ball once or twice a half and he can be our strike weapon. He played on the right wing at Newcastle so not a major change for him. Reddy is an honest toiler...

    Mark Bugden question.....

    I have a question about Mark Bugden that some of you with good memories will be able to answer. In 1985 Bugden started the year playing at the Bulldogs, then ended up playing a number of games for Parra. However, later in the year he ended up back at the dogs and played in the Grand Final. ...

    Does anyone have an pictures of the Eels/Storm display on the harbour bridge pylons each night?? I have looked but can't find any.

    Has it ever happened?

    Is anyone aware if anything like what Parra have achieved - 3rd last to Grand Finalists has ever happened before - in any sport? It would have to be some sort of all time record wouldn't it? I think I recall something similar happening in American College Football but my memory is sketchy...
