    Is it possible?

    To avoid the spoon this year. Dragons are looking most likely to compete being only 2 points clear. They have a bye left, we'll have to earn all our points. Dragons probably have the tougher run home, but with our current squad any run home is tough. It is possible that the round 25 clash...

    Board member's association with a player manager?

    I know a lot of people don't like Ray Hadley, but he just had a pretty interesting rant about the Eels woes. Amongst other things He alleged that a board member is in a 'relationship' with a certain player manager and as a result we seem to sign a lot of this player manager's players. Questions...

    RIP Moose

    I grew up listening to and watching Rex Mossip as the voice of rugby league. My grandfather watched footy for over 80 years and said the Moose was the hardest player to ever play the game. I'll never forget his biased commentry in the 82 and 83 GFs, and even in 81 you could tell he wanted...

    The Doldrums

    Well, in less than 2 years we have gone from premiership favourites to wooden spoon favourites. Who's to blame? Personally, I don't see any short term light at the end of the tunnel. I actually see a footy team really having a dig, sadly they just aren't up to it. The halves are obviously not...

    Westmead Children's Hospital

    Most of the 1st grade squad, including coach Kearney were at Westmead Children's Hospital today. Great stuff by the players and the club and believe me, it's things like this that mean so much, the whole ward was buzzing for hours after they left. Jarryd gave my little girl a 2010 B&G Army...

    Tips for Sat. 7 March

    I'm tipping a roughie in the Australia Cup at Flemington. Bluetigeroo's last couple of runs have been very good and I feel Colin Little has set the horse up for this race. Luke Nolen has had success on this horse before and $21 fixed odds on IAS looks overs to me. Will get better on Betfair too...

    Feleti a Blue this year?

    An article in this weeks Rugby League Week has raised the issue of Feleti Meteo virtually being a walk up start into the Blues Origin side this year. All he has to do is publicly state his desire to play for Australia, he doesn't even need to put it in writing, just merely state it in the...

    The buck stops with the coaching staff for......

    Hindy losing his Origin and Test spots Grothe going from the Kangaroos to Wenty Tim Smith leaving the club Hayne being a shadow of the player he was Inu way out of form an ineffective and lazy forward pack a team tipped by most to be well in premiership contention grossly underachieving so far...

    Aaron Cannings ??

    There's been a lot of discussion about the team needing some big, go forward blokes in the team. Well we've got one in our ranks who's off contract at the end of the year, but we've hardly seen any footy out of him. Aaron Cannings is massive and an imposing figure on the field when fit and...

    G'day all

    Just wanted to say g'day. Brand new to this forum but have been a member on the 'official' Eels website for a number of years. Plenty of familiar names I see here, but seeing the forum legend hollywood jesus posting here ensured my registration :D I would have joined much sooner had I known.
