The Eels secured a banner extension last week with Isaiah Iongi agreeing to a long term extension with the club that will see the star fullback in Blue & Gold until the end of 2030. The Tip Sheet revels in the early Christmas present for the Parramatta faithful as Sixties and Forty20 review the roster in the wake of the news. Training switched gears recently with a one-club session that brought the entirety of the pathways coming together with the senior squads to light up the Centre of Excellence.
They’reeeeee back! Well most of them. The NRL has leaned on the Wests Tigers to reinstate Barry O’Farrell and the independent directors that were sensationally removed recently. Shane Richardson however has moved on while Charlie Viola, one of the aforementioned directors, has indicated he will not rejoin the board. Amidst all this Dennis Burgess has also stood down as chaos continues to reign in Tiger Town. That didn’t stop them re-signing Benji Marshall for a whopping 5 years in a jaw dropping extension for the young coach.

I don’t think matto makes the nrl unless there are mass injuries but I hope for himself he puts in a mean season in cup.
My starting edges are kitione on the left and Williams on the right, kelma off the bench.
Kelmas pure talent and ability are high but I haven’t been able to see him as an 80 minute edge forward, especially if you get into a tough drawn out 80 minute effort against a strong team.
Williams best footy for me this season was the middle of the year when he started on rhe edge before putting a shift in the middle.
30 on the edge for Williams before going to the middle and letting tuilagi carve for the last 50 is probably the strongest way to use them both in my personal opinion. Either way Moses will have a weapon off his hip.
Jordan Samrani a starting centre in the nrl… we are putrid at talent id the backline. We lost an Aussie and soo winger but may to put a hloke who is a nobody and too slow laterally in at centre. Our other supposed replacement, Bailey, is injured as usual.
