Parramatta Eels Juniors

Wonder which current NRL club GM used to be a teacher at St Pat's..

Our club needs to get there claws back into each of the schools in the area. Not saying they don't have some kids but work with them better than they do now.

That was an item at some meetings with the senior club, received nebulous statements that they were looking at options. So far , zero .

Matt Cameron ?

Blacktown Pats seems to be Rugby League goldmine these days not sure what the program is there but seems to be a big lure for those in area.

Matt Arthur & Finau Latu were in same year.

Matt Cameron ?

Fairly sure he was also working with the Eels when he was still teaching at the school.

Probably has nothing to do with the school anymore but it is a good story

Greg Beacroft ex Panthers was the football coach a while ago, not sure if he’s still there, but Panthers scouts and junior coaching staff are at every Patties game. Now Dogs , Roosters and others have boys in that school , mostly from the area but already signed by those clubs.

Hills Sports High in Seven Hills is a sports high school where Panthers and Eels juniors play again with other clubs juniors attending. As a club we have been pretty slow to the party .

Assuming Lincoln plays Ball next year captained the Matt's side so must have some leadership qualities about him...

Looking forward to the Juniors again in 2025.

Yeah he has been around for the last 2 years. I am sure it was part of his deal.

I like the move

I think Hodgson will make a great coach actually him looking after the matts is a positive step.

he's experienced enough and he owes us big time, let's hope he works out better than his playing role

 

[Delboy]

Mitch Lewis is football coach at Hills Sports High, sensible from a pathways aspect having him at U19 level and involved with the club. Hodgson attends most junior reps games and seems invested in that area.

Joked around with him at Belmore last friday, saying he would have thought it was Barmy conditions, were I was freezing my nards off.

Great coaching appointments. When was the last time we had a local high schools sports teacher on our coaching staff. Looks like O'Neill has been busy working on the pathways setup.
