    Eels warn - Hands off Lyon

    PARRAMATTA last night asked the NRL to investigate Manly for possible anti-tampering involving St Helens centre Jamie Lyon. Eels chief executive Denis Fitzgerald contacted NRL chief executive David Gallop and salary cap auditor Ian Schubert to probe Manly's interest in Lyon. The drama came...

    Privatisation of Eels ?? (Hypothetic)

    Having seen what Souths have been through, what are your thoughts on privatising our club? If a multi-millionaire offered to buy Parra (lets just say for $25m) which assured the future of the club, guaranteed the colours and logo wont change and guarantees the club won't relocate - would you...

    Our biggest problem...

    It seems to me our biggest problem this year will be the same problem we had last year.....and that is our slow start to games. We seem to always concede a try early - often the oppositions first set no less- and have been for a season a now. It is something that needs to be fixed up but I am...

    Smith Hagan Vortex

    Do you guys feel like you are in some sort of weird vortex over the Smith Hagan Swap! I mean if you really think about it, it actually makes your head hurt. Smith doing his best for parra but watching knights closely. Hages doing his best for Knights but watching Parra closely. Smith on the...

    RLW price

    Hey Colonel - this is weird. I just noticed my RLW definitely says $4.95 on the cover - which is what I paid. Do you think they blundered and re-issued it or something? I can't explain that one !

    Smith announces "rotation" policy

    In todays RLW, Brian Smith has spoken about he intends to rest players throughout the year. HE felt the players were jaded at SF time last season. I think its an excellent idea and yet another example of how clever this man is. It will give younger players 1st grade experience and allow the...

    AFL signing up our kids

    What does everyone thing about the NRL's ability to bring young kids to the game? The reason I ask this. My son attends primary school in sydneys north west and two weeks ago they had 2 Collingwood players talk the kids about AFL, how to play, showed vidoes etc.etc. Now my son brings a note...

    Another rumour.......

    I have it on fairly good authority that Hagan is close to being given the chop at Newcastle. Apparently their management are starting to realise its not going to work. No great shock if it happens.............

    GBA v Nintendo DS

    My son wants a GBA for Christmas and was wondering if anyone here knows what is best between a GBA or a Nintendo DS. The Nintendo DS has two screens which seems better to me but GBA seems to be the most popular. There is also a Game Boy Micro out too now but I have no idea what that is all...

    Watch your back Nathan !!!

    Roos on loose at Moulin Rouge By Dean Ritchie in Paris November 11, 2005 THERE are the card sharks who play for cash. The snorer who wears a mouthguard. The compulsive cleaner. The coach who loses his cufflinks. The reader. The guitar player. And the bloke who refuses to close the bathroom...

    Kangaroos selections puzzling

    I can't figure this out. Hindy ruled out of tour - 2 weeks later he's ok ! A Winger/Centre is ruled out (Tahu) and replaced with a 2nd rower(Hindy). A halfback is ruled out, and replaced with a winger (Grothe). Why wasn't Grothe brought in for Tahu. My guess is that they decided they really...

    Lost - Replay machine

    If anyone has found a machine that replays tries, could you please return it to channel nine asap as they do not have a backup. It has been lost for several weeks now. Telstra Stadium would like it returned also otherwise they may as well remove the "replay" boards altogether and get a refund!

    RLW Article - Smith/Morris

    There is an article about Parra going into camp every week in cheap hotels and how Morris and Timmy always room together. It just says how they watch other matches together and discuss how they will try certain things during matches that other sides are doing. It has really helped them stay...

    Priceless

    The Eels boys clowning around in the dressing rooms before the match...priceless Tezza giving away a penalty in possession for backchat..priceless Michael Witt hitting the posts with his first two kicks...priceless Tezza picking the grass off his face for 10 minutes after a Ben Smith...

    Whats the go with Brett Lee ?

    Gee he has been disappointing this series. He was 12th man for the best part of 18 months and kept saying he wanted his chance etc etc. And when he has been given a chance - he has shown nothing. Even when Pidgeon was out and he was given the new ball, he just didn't grasp the opportunity...

    Judiciary points system idea

    Why doesn't the points system rate semis, Grand Finals and SOO matches as a higher points level than normal club games. Fuifui's penalty is even more severe because he is missing semis and possibly a GF which should not count as an ordinary match. Does anyone else agree? If you miss a match...

    Wayne Bennett

    I heard the other day that there are calls for Bennett to stand aside for next year. Can you confirm if this is true?

    Players returning from injury for finals

    Isn't it interesting how players seem to come back from pretty serious injuries so quickly when the finals are coming up. Hindmarsh, Webcke, possibly Hodges and I remember Adam Dykes came back in a couple of weeks from a serious injury about 4 years ago to play in semis. Ruben Wiki did last...
