Ossie is a good man.

I have known him over 25 years and think you will be pleasantly surprised at the level of knowledge and expertise he will bring to your club.

Well done Parra....a great signing.

How can you get excited about a rabbit or a rooster or whatever?

Stupid.

The Eel kicks arse. Any suggestion to change it is pure wankery and a clear sign of someone who has absolutely no clue.

Some clubs have mascots that are totally without context or history - Titans, Tigers etc. Others relate to their area etc - Panthers, Roosters, Cowboys etc. We are the only Club that has a mascot that reaches back beyond European settlement and could go back possibly thousands of years. Hell, it's quite possible that out of all the sporting clubs in the entire world, ours reaches further back into history and culture than any other.

Changing it is stupid.

Your kid gets exited about a slimey eel??? :lol:

After I told him a bit about where the eel reference comes from and told him about the history of the club he thought it was cool...

He always gets excited about the games and any skerrick of news he manages to track down about the mighty eels....over here in Adelaide where you have to go looking for news about league that's pretty impressive.

No one might agree with this, but I think the 2001 jersey brought in a fresh new wave of fans to the club. Dont have any facts to prove it, but that jersey seemed to really resonate with teenage girls. Which is refreshing to see at footy games.

I also must admit that I like the current logo. It looks very professional and sleek aswell as fierce. Im all for tradition, but if we need to change some minor things in order to attract the modern day fan, then I have no problem with it what so ever.

What brought a fresh new wave of fans that year was the fresh new wave brand of footy the team played. Record number of tries , record number of points , thrashing opposition every second week.
It was just a pity they screwed up the whole season in one sh*tty half of football.

I would go with the 'Parramatta Pornstars', all players will come out holding hot chicks hands, and then we can turn it in to aWWF show, with the chicks on the sideline in bikinis shouting at the refs...imagine how popular our club would be!

Yeah, however, the Parramatta Pornstars would be an international hit, we could have sex shows before and after the game, and for the kiddies - 'whats happening to me' classes, and the importance of safe sex, it's gold, i should send my idea to rayyyyyyy lol

it has potential, we would have international appeal, we could even have like strip shows at half time, and female steakers run wild, we would sell out the stadium every week, and we could provide like a card where on your fifth porno purchase you get a free one.

The WWF theme could be that Burt has stolen Haynes girl, and you see them too start wrestling to win her back, then the 'King of Sting' arrives and says that she was actually seeing him, and the drama would be amazing..

people wouldn't care what she writes anymore, they'll be like 'f**k her, im off to see some tits' :lol:

Haha - GOLD!

If that doesn't work out, Ronny, why not start a BRL (Bikini Rugby League) that plays ten minute games before first grade? Imagine the slow-mo replays as bikini-clad specimens run away to score tries, only to be stopped as the opposition dive and bring them down by grabbing onto their teeny-weeny pants...

All that and the fact that Eels are mysterious. You can see a bear and a tiger at the zoo but the Eels lies lurking in the river, most dangerous and exciting creatures do this.
