The Spotlight – July 4, 2022: The Eels Sit At The 2022 Crossroads
I don’t enjoy writing critical posts. It’s far too easy to fire reactionary shots after a loss, and all of us have different takes shaped by our own biases, prior knowledge and understandings. As a Parramatta supporter with a platform I…
Post Game Grades – Round 16 vs Rabbitohs
Parramatta Eels 12 Souths 30 Nobody drowned out there, so that’s something I suppose. The rest of the good relates to my watching this game on replay after going out for dinner, so I could watch the last 20…
