Parramatta Eels 22 Manly Sea Eagles 20 That was a game against type for the Parramatta Eels, who overcame some defensive deficiencies, stuck in the contest and took the lead for the first time in the 78th minute. Had…
The Preview – Round 11, 2022: Eels vs Sea Eagles
It’s make or break time for the Parramatta Eels who, despite holding the two biggest wins of season 2022, are on the wrong side of the top four divide in an increasingly intense race for a finals football second chance.…
Post Game Grades – Round 10 vs Roosters
Parramatta Eels 24 Sydney Roosters 31 The Sydney Roosters were pretty good tonight. Let’s not take credit away from the opposition; they completed at 86%, their line speed was ridiculous and it was a big effort from the Parramatta…
The Preview – Round 10, 2022: Eels vs Roosters
It’s been a pretty good week to be an Eels fan. Finally getting over Penrith after a few close shaves, to complete the “contender double” on their own turf. Breaking another record streak, just for the fun of it. Triggering…

The Preview – Round 8, 2022: Eels vs Cowboys
It is time for the eighth edition of the Territory Eels clash, an annual tradition where Parramatta takes a home game to Darwin in an effort to promote the game (that conveniently pays rather handsomely). While the lost home game…
Post Game Grades – Round 7 vs Knights
Parramatta Eels 39 Newcastle Knights 2 If I didn’t hate Newcastle I’d feel sorry for them after that beating. It was like watching a boxer throw body shots for six rounds, then suddenly the Knights goal line defence was…
The Preview – Round 7, 2022: Eels vs Knights
They say it isn’t that you get knocked down, but how you get up. That’s bad news for the Parramatta Eels, because recent history suggests once they’re on a skid, they stay there for a while. A tough, dominant effort…
