the funny thing about the Eels, there are a number of players around the competition, that are Eels juniors and have never played for the Eels, and are excellent players. You have to really wonder about who the Eels have to find talent. They should be fired.

back in the 80's the Eels were so well run in every way. They knew how to find good talent and how to work with that talent, that just isnt the case these days. Shame we always have to look back at the 80's for everything.

Shame we always have to look back at the 80's for everything. 80's was the best for footy, music and movies / TV. Everything was better back then. But yeah, Parra were awesome during those years. Need to build a time machine. LOL I'd go back to 1984, just to soak up the feeling again of being triple crowned champions. |

1984 much to my disgust the Eels lost the grand final. Almost didn't make the 1984 GF. Remember that game against the Dragons. Saints were leading 7-4 with 2 minutes left. But some Kenny out to Grothe magic got Parra home. |

It was great we got our revenge in 1986, but it would have been awesome if we won 4 in a row.

yes I realize nobody has done that since the Broncos, but records are made to be broken. I think the Dragons 11 straight is untouchable.
