Now for the dynasty

Regardless of whether Parramatta wins this year's grand final or not, the club is on the verge of a new dynasty that could even surpass the glory days of the eighties.

Jarryd Hayne's four-year re-signing will be the centrepiece of this dynasty. There are a handful of marquee players in the game who can score you points regardless of the ebb and flow of the game. These are the players who win you the tight games, big pressure games and ultimately premierships. And there is no better player in the game right now, then Jarryd Hayne, who at just 21, quite remarkably has his best footballing days still ahead of him.

Hayne is the type of player who other players want to play with. He is the type of player who makes other players look good and helps them to go on to play representative football. Players know when they sign with Parramatta now, they will be coming to a successful club that is going to be there at finals time and where you stand the greatest chance of taking your own game to a new level, and putting yourself into representative calculations.

The next piece of the puzzle, and arguably just as important to our future, is coach Daniel Anderson. He may not have won Dally M coach of the year, but the impact and the turnaround he has had on this group of Eels players is second to none, and if the Eels do go all the way, his achievement will be remembered as one of the greatest coaching performances of all time.

While there was obviously some issues with some players earlier in the year, the team now obviously has an incredible amount of respect for Anderson and know that if they listen to him, he will get the best football out of them. Again, he is a coach that players will want to come and play for. He appears to leave no stone unturned in preparing and developing his players and he has a proven track record of taking teams all the way.

The issue now for the Eels will be to keep juggling their rosters, keeping the right players as ultimately our team goes on to do bigger and better things. When the Dogs won their grand final in 2004, Willie Mason declared that the side wanted to stay together and create a new Bulldogs dynasty, within a couple of years that team had been ripped apart and the wooden spoon had found a new home at Belmore.

Paul Osborne, who has exceeded all expectations to date, will have a challenging 12 months next year. He has the likes of Daniel Mortimer, Kris Keating, Feleti Mateo, Krisnan Inu, Fuifui Moimoi, Luke Burt, Eric Grothe and many others off contract. The key to really locking down a dynasty will be to get the halves right. Daniel Anderson will have a bit of room to experiment next year and the likes of Mortimer, Keating, Robson and Humble should all get the opportunity to prove they're up to the job.

However, the fact that we have the likes of Nathan Hindmarsh, Justin Poore, Shane Shackleton, Ben Smith and Tim Mannah signed for at least the next few years means we have the basis of a strong pack that can be worked around.

Parramatta is now in a position to dominate the next decade.

I never realised how much of a blessing his previously absurd resigning has become. That's could be our starting forward pack for the next few years, coupled with our fantastic depth in outside backs, that's an excellent start.

All we need are benchies (good benchies are rare as they need to be really good at a certain skill - see Fien, Kingston or Widders) and the 4 middle players, where we have our centrepiece Hayne, Keating's a good hooker who'll get better. Although he'll probably move to half, I like Morts at 5/8th. And next year will sort out whether Robson, K. Keating or Mateo can claim the other half spot with Morts

Now For The Dynasty
by Phil Sims
24th September 2009



Now your sharing/talking powerfully Phil & Benoir91............ every thought and feeling you are creating is not only doable but are truly beneficial for every Eels player, coach, official, manager and fan who thinks and feels these these thoughts and feelings you are creating for the Parramatta Eels. This information backed by grounded men & women who are disciplined and who have no time for ego, arrogance, ignorance, fear, ridicule, harassment, abuse, negativity, indifference and SELF-GLORY/SELF-CENTEREDNESS, will pave a very long Golden Age Dynasty for the Eels.

Well said/shared Phil Sims & Benoir91 :clap::clap::clap::thumb

Parramatta's winning streak begs the question of just how good they'll be when Timana Tahu, Justin Poore and Shane Shackleton join the NRL club next year.

Good enough to be the favourites for the crown already, according to Centrebet who have installed the Eels at $4.50 to win the 2010 premiership.

Dual international Tahu was arguably the best centre in the NRL when he left for rugby union two years ago.

Poore is an incumbent NSW State of Origin prop, while Shackleton is leaving the Sydney Roosters in the year he cracked rep footy for City.

Kris Keating, the Eels' talented first-choice halfback before they unearthed Jeff Robson in a run of nine wins from 10 matches, will also return after his season was wrecked by an ankle injury.

The Bulldogs are second favourites to win next year's title at $6, followed by St George Illawarra and Melbourne (both $7), Manly $8) and Brisbane ($10).

"I think the serious money to win next year is definitely with the Eels," Centrebet spokesman Neil Evans told AAP.

"They're setting themselves up to be a clear favourite in 2010."

Eels great and football club board member Brett Kenny is, understandably, wary of the favourites tag.

"In one way it's probably a bit of an honour and quite nice, I guess, to have something like that but I really do think it's a bit early," Kenny told AAP.

"A lot can happen between now and next year. A lot happens from one week to the next. Brisbane two weeks ago were looking pretty good. Suddenly Peter Wallace gets an injury and everyone's saying they've got no chance."

Kenny believes the 2010 Eels will be tested by the weight of expectation but have the potential to be better than the 2009 version.

"The expectation's going to be very high next year because of the way they're finishing this season and those three players all coming over to the club," the four-time premiership star said.

"You would like to think the players would look at it and say 'Yep, well this is what we've got to live up to now, we've set our standard and now we've got to make sure we keep doing it'.

" ... We would be looking to start our season better than this year and if we do that, with the new personnel we've got at the club things will be better and we will perform even better.

"Supporters should be looking at being very hopeful but at the same time they've got to be realists and realise that things happen, you can't control injuries.

"If everything goes to plan you would like to say that Parramatta would definitely be looking at the top four."

Shackleton, meanwhile, is looking forward to some expectation after a miserable, wooden-spoon year at the Roosters.

"The way (Parramatta's) going ... (favouritism's) probably about right," he said.

"I'm not much of a betting man but if you were you'd probably be looking at it.

"It would be good to be there now, the way they're going.

I wouldnt even give $4.50

Making the top 4 should be a certainty. If the bookies give any price above $1.50, im having a go!

Take it as it comes, we've been a bit lucky this year with injuries, but we might not be next year.


yeah, we might have KK and Mateo for the whole year, and Inu wont break down as often ;-) Poore, Tahu and Shackleton might even play a few games
