Rumours and Stuff

[Rocket man]

Or telling people in 76 Parra will play in 7 of the next 11 G/Fs

 

[Avenger]

Or telling merkins in 1981 that the Eels were about to win four of the next six premierships. They’d think you’re f**king mad.

When are we going to win our next one and if/when we do, will you a stop posting or wait until we are shit again?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I kept posting while we were winning most of our games and making the finals year after year. It’s not like I started posting in 2023. That’s just when you merkins decided our premiership drought was my fault.

Let me guess Simrani is Superman. And he’s got muscles ?

 

[Zoso]

Why do we keep mentioning BA people? He's yesterdays news, I'm looking to the future!!!

Past, present, future….I’m not sure Parrapat’s mind works in such a linear fashion.

Apparently Russell has agreed to a long term deal with the Bears from 2027

Looking grim in the backs if Russell does go

Perth Bears set to land Parramatta Eels back Sean Russell, close in on Canterbury’s Josh Curran
Parramatta’s Sean Russell has become the latest NRL player to join the new team, with the Bears also closing in on Canterbury’s Josh Curran in an ambitious pre-Christmas recruitment blitz.

Perth are continuing their pre-Christmas signing blitz with Sean Russell and Josh Curran expected to be the next duo to join the Bears.
It is understood that Russell has agreed to a long-term deal to leave his junior club Parramatta at the end of next year to sign with the Bears. Canterbury forward Curran has also been linked to a move to the Bears as they inch towards their goal of making 10 signings before Christmas.
Russell – who can play centre or wing - will form part of a backline which is starting to take shape alongside English international Harry Newman and ex-Bulldogs half Toby Sexton.
The Eels wanted to retain Russell – who has played 61 top grade games since making his debut for the Eels in 2021 – and made an offer to the 23-year-old.
However they were gazumped by the Bears who identified Russell as a long-term player to join the club with the deal up to four years.

Curran is also a key potential signing given his ability to play long minutes – at either middle or an edge – and his experience. The 26-year-old reached the 100 game mark this year after stints with the Roosters, Warriors and more recently Canterbury. Curran would be Perth’s first player signed who has played at least 100 matches.
He will play out the season at the Bulldogs before his likely move to Perth in 2026.
The Bears had targeted 10 signings before Christmas. If they land Russell and Curran it will mean eight players have already committed to the club.
Penrith premiership winning prop Liam Henry headlines the list which also includes Iszac Fa’asuamaleaui (prop), Luke Smith (backrower) and Emarly Bitungane (prop).
The Bears are in the hunt for Melbourne duo Nick Meaney and Tyran Wishart. The pair have flown to Perth in recent weeks to meet with Bears coach Mal Meninga.
The Bears have identified Wishart to potentially be their starting hooker while Meaney has backline versatility and is a handy goal-kicker.
Meanwhile, the Eels remain locked in talks with the Tians regarding centre Brian Kelly moving before the start of the season.

I get that the TCT boys are passionate and provide a service, but for f**k’s sake—invest in some half-decent sound equipment, sort out the background, and dress the part. A towel hanging off a doorknob in the background and sloppy presentation by wearing a polo from ten years ago just screams amateur hour.

He did praise Ben Rogers for his hard work in list management and recruitment. I know that it can become a bit of a boys club, but who have we recruited and our list is completely lopsided with no backline depth. Must be missing something that has happened.

 

[King-Gutho94]

They’d think you’re f**king mad.

Only takes 2 seconds on here to figure that out with your BS

I thind fat really annoying.

 

[Matty Bhoy]

Can’t argue with Sean signing with Perth tbh. He’s a good honest footballer but if another club want to spend decent coin on him, I feel like we’ve done the right thing and not matched it.

 

[Stevie]

I feel like the rapprochement of Superman Simmonsen and Tin Man Matterson with Commissar Ryles is the sort of realpolitik perestroika that will lead this club out of the wilderness in 2026.

That’s pretty funny, I’ll pay that.

Weird quirk in the draw

Since 2021 we have played the Storm in the first 3 weeks in every season bar 2024.

So what's that 5 times out of 6 seasons.

2021 - Rd 2 @ Commbank - Parra won 16-12
2022 - Rd 3 @ AAMI Park - Parra won 28-24 in Golden Point
2023 - Rd 1 @ Commbank - Storm won 16-12 in Golden Point
2025 - Rd 1 @ AAMI Park - Storm won 56-18
2026 - Rd 1 @ AAMI Park - TBC

But before 2021 it never did happen once between 1998-2020 that we played them in the first 3 rounds of a season.

So how do you go 23 seasons without it happening to then 5 times in 6 years.

The NRL wants to crush our spirits - they don't want us to be the Western Sydney powerhouse club we should be.
