    ANZ Stadium - Never again

    Sorry, I meant actual season ticket holders.

    ANZ Stadium - Never again

    It's a short term gain. 100k guaranteed plus I'm assuming the extra takings for anything above the 20k we get at Pirtek. If you want to build membership though, you need to keep these big games at Pirtek. The NRL doesn't want fans to be locked out, but you need to create a club mentality...

    Mt Smart, Melbourne, Canberra, Newcastle and NQ

    But only 1 of those 7 was at Parra Stadium (last year when Toutai dropped it cold over the line). We've won 10 from our last 12 at Parra Stadium. Our record at ANZ is woeful. Wish we would stop taking games there.

    "louder!!"

    Yep. Spot on. Best ground in the country to watch footy from. "How long to go" is the big one and I just wish there was a clock elsewhere at the ground for the people on the south side. Every other ground in Sydney has two game clocks.

    "louder!!"

    Of course only Friday and Monday. The club has an easy opportunity to utilise whatever market advantage it has. I know there are agreements and catering contracts. But why wouldn't you open up some food stalls at the back of the hills/stands? You could open it up to local restaurants. If...

    "louder!!"

    What is the cost to turn on the already existent infrastructure sitting at the other end? $40 one off cost to get a person to physically turn it on? $40 in extra electricity running costs per game? Spread that across the 4000 tickets at the south end... 1c per ticket. charge me the extra cent...

    "louder!!"

    I'm sorry that I work and don't have the luxury of going home to eat a fancy four course meal or pack a nice feast to take with me to the footy. I'm sorry that I have to fight traffic just to make it to the ground by kickoff.

    "louder!!"

    Proposed changes to the gameday experience: 1. Get rid of "Louder" ASAP 2. Remove all Kiss, Dance and Selfie Cams 3. Why is it necessary to play Welcome to the Jungle and Paradise City 40 times a game? Do we not have any other songs available? 4. How could we sell out of tickets on the south...

    NRL Judiciary 2015

    Agree. Live: I said two-three weeks. Slowed it down on replay at home. Looked a lot worse at the ground. 9/10 blokes make that exact same tackle and nothing happens. Ballin got stuck awkwardly. Even still, I'd be happy with three weeks. That's reasonably fair. 7 weeks is farcical.

    NRL Judiciary 2015

    How is that a grade three? No hands between the legs, no lifting, no malice. Big man dominating a little man. Ballin's head gets caught in an awkward position. It was actually a really solid tackle. He buried him into the turf. Watched the replay and both Sterlo and Gus thought he was unlucky...

    Update on 2015 Membership

    Still no response on scoreboard/clock for people on the Kenny Hill. Who is the best person to get in touch with to get something sorted?

    Update on 2015 Membership

    Larissa, Can you make the Kenny membership cheaper than the Sterling? There is no screen on the North Hill so fans sitting on the South Hill can't see anything. And worse still, the clock/scoreboard down the north end is turned off. Fans on the south hill get snubbed every year. That's the...

    OT: Parra Stadium sharing

    Rubbish. Tigers game we were on the backend of a 7-4 penalty count. Luke Brooks got the diving penalty because the vocal tigers section were baying for it. We might have had the majority numbers there (60/40, maybe even 70/30) but 40% of a 55,000 strong crowd is still 22,000 loud and convincing...

    Hayne v DCE

    Could Hayne cut it in the NFL? The league minimum for an NFL contract these days is $420,000 a year.

    OT: Parra Stadium sharing

    It's because we shift games that we don't have higher season ticket numbers. Everyone goes on about how good the Parra/Tigers game was for the game. It was terrible for Parramatta. We lost the game because we sold out for a quick buck. We lost that game and the one we took to ANZ for dogs...

    The run home

    Why is everybody looking at Cowboys and Warriors as our targets? Penrith are on 28 with the following run home: Dragons Cowboys Storm Manly Warriors I'd like to think they start none of those games as favourites. Now the dogs are in a similar predicament and are only one 26: Brisbane Us...

    RD 19: Parramatta Eels v Souths at Pirtek stadium 7.40pm 18/7/14

    Does anyone have a stat for games under Cummins? I swear, I can't remember winning a game with him as referee. He is a pathetic referee. A couple of really crucial decisions didn't help us last night. We don't seem to get the decisions because we don't fight in the tackle. Hayne is the only one...

    Round 8 'other'

    Last night it was given 'no try' and overruled to be given a try. There was more contact on Ben Hunt last night than there was on Brooks. Hunt gets up and keeps going to try and get his man. I guarantee that if Hunt drops to the floor, there's no way they give that a try, even if the decoy hits...

    Ben Roberts dropped to Wenty

    If not Hindy, who is our best defender?

    Ben Roberts dropped to Wenty

    So if I know that and you know that and 90% of the rugby league community know that, what's wrong with our coach? Absolute confidence killer. Doesn't he see that he's destroying the team with his poor man management. No finer example than last week You drop your star signing playmaker to...
