[MarkInTheStands]

In other news, I had someone from the R&R team confirm that we need three players for the top 30

Who is in the R & R team?

You would think they would just elevate some players up to the top 30 now.

I won’t reveal my source sorry

I won’t reveal my source sorry

Cant say I didn't try

But on the top 30 I am interested what the club does...

I hope they don't go and sign some players just to fill those spots and get stuck with them next year if they are just fill ins

I'd imagine when the deadline comes on 1 July this year, we just upgrade three juniors/players outside of our top 27 (but who we want to keep in 2025 and/or beyond) to minimum NRL wage?

Especially if we don't have a 2025 coach appointed to agree and enable any potential recruitment activity.

As a Leeds fan I must question just who or what I pissed off to have BA potential heading there.

Yes, jumped on them after the 2008 World Cup as I liked a bunch of the pommy blokes who all just so happened to play for Leeds. Was a good time too considering the success they had during that time.

I’ve got an ex panther mate, the official records show he played in England.

That was news to him, but he claims it nonetheless.

How many coaches can you upgrade to the top 30 before 1 November?!

And we need a mod to fix the poll, at least the option of an “other” so we can vote for that. We don’t ask for much.

When is Twiz putting Dean Young on the poll to be next Eels coach.

He is in the mix yet no one can vote for him.

Right now we are below average. I enjoyed our period from 20-22 where we were much more competitive. Hopefully the last couple of years is an anomaly and our performances on the field improve.

I dunno, the bar was very low and it was enjoyable but very surprising when they made the Grand Final both in 09 and 2022. Wouldn't it be nice to feel like they deserved it like in 2001 for a year. The Eels haven't been a team crushing mentally strong outfit for 23 years. I would argue the last time that was closest was in 2007 losing to the Storm in a preliminary final who happened to be cheating at the time. That may have been 5th but they dominated the majority of the season sitting 3rd only behind cheats and Manly. The rest of the seasons they haven't been world beaters.

Factually the best NRL season since 2001 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_Parramatta_Eels_season

Manly had our measure in those 2 games we played them that year.

We probably finished where we deserved were too inconsistent from memory.

I went to Melbourne for that prelim and got unlucky no doubt.

But we never looked a consistent premiership side too laconic and Hagan let a culture develop with no responsibility for laziness.

EGJ was dropped 5 weeks too late.

Eels forum is only beaten in popularity by the main NRL forum you can’t really blame merkins for coming here, it’s where all the cool kids and Pou hang out.

 

[Snoochies]

Which coach is the one who would attract players to the club?
Alot of players followed Ciraldo to the dogs, which of the options available have that same pulling power?

 

[Suitman]

It's quite extraordinary how many people here continue to regularly reply to Pou and enable his pathetic trolling.
In any thread.
