RIP buddy.

[Ron Jeremy]

people associate Petria Thomas with the Raiders which is bullsh*t, she even once said on the footy show that Parra was her side and her favourite all time player was Sterlo.

 

[Glenn]

a true hero to the real worker....

RIP

ditto, what Bernie went through I wouldn't wish on anyone

 

[Jodeci]

Joe the RNB singer is an eels fan

 

[Parra R 4 Me]

I remember reading somewhere that Anh Do the comedian was a big Eels Supporter, he was runner up on Dancing with the Stars.

Layne Beachley

Nah. she's a Manly girl. A member of the Eagles Angels with Sarah Murdoch; Wendy Harmer; Kerri Pottharst Shelley Taylor-Smith as well.

I've read similar too - however I'm sure I saw her on The Footy Show many years ago (5+ years ago) and she said she was a Parra supporter.

There's also this from 2003: "Guest of honour was 5 time world surfing champion, and unabashed Parramatta fan, Layne Beachley"

(BTW, that's the first time I've posted a quote from an external source, hope I've done this OK !).

She's a S.................ea Eagle now. Changes sides like her undies...... must have been money involved. Either that or she is sleeping with Noel Cleal too.

So I might be right in thinking that she did ?

Disgusted, absoluted disgusted !!!

What a disgrace ! How can you turn your back on the club you support like that !? Regardless of it being Parra (why the whole world doesn't support the Mighty Blue and Golds I'll never understand) - but seriously, what's all that about !?!?

She never really supported Parra or the great game in the first place if you ask me - I feel like rallying all us Parra "chicks" together to go "sort" her out ;-)

Judas the 2nd !?

(I'm joking of course, I'm not really a violent person - but the Eels just fire me up ).

 

[MarkInTheStands]

It is interesting but I am sure the Footy show thing was either in 2001 or early 2002. Either way, she is an Eagles Angel now.

 

[Nikki]

A true Parra supporter would never turn their back on the club for Manly. I reckon she bandwagons to whichever team is gunna let her in the dressin sheds.. :lol:

RIP buddy.

Yes Bernie was a keen supporter and a friend of mine he asked me for an EEL,s flag autographed by Jarryd Hayne for his wheelchair that I gave him two weeks before he died.........OVO

 

[Twizzle]

Yoda is actually a pretty famous person.

Good to see even fictional characters support the eels ;-)
