I wonder if the halfback for the womans team is head and shoulders better than the half in the mens team, can she be used? I would say no, but who knows?

Eels havent had good juniors since the 80's. Anyone who did have ability the lousy talent scouts have gotten rid of them. The club is so poorly run from top to bottom and the results prove it. Panthers have won 3 premierships since the Eels last. It's looking very bad, Eels are definitely yesterdays team. Gold Coast will win a title before the Eels and the Titans in no way are a football town. A town that is everything but football. |

Gold Coast is a vacation resort not a football town. I am sure some of the locals are into the NRL but what percentage I have no idea.
Even the Sharks have won a title since the last Eels win. The Warriors will win a title before the Eels next and they are the bigget underachievers ever.

MOSES TO WIN DALLY M MEDAL
If the Eels are to break their premiership hoodoo then Mitchell Moses is going to have to have a pretty fair year, but history says the premiership winner doesn’t always produce the Dally M medal winner because the team usually shares the points each week.
However if the Eels are to go all the way the chances are their much maligned halfback is going to accrue plenty of votes from the judges.
Moses turns 28 this season and is entering the prime of his career so he has the perfect opportunity to prove the doubters wrong and produce his best season in the NRL in 2022.
The Eels have one of the best if not the best roster in the NRL and certainly one of the deepest should injuries inevitably strike.
If Moses and the Eels can learn from their past mistakes and maintain the rage for a full season without a lull in the middle, then the club and their halfback can win plenty of awards at the end of the year.
The stage is set for Moses to lead the Eels back to the promised land and if he does he should be crowned the game’s best player on rugby league’s night of nights.
That is the biggest joke of the year.

EELS VS ROOSTERS GRAND FINAL
Picking the premiership winners each season is hard enough let a lone both grand finalists, given the amount of variables with injuries and suspensions each season.
However on paper the Eels and the Roosters are shaping as the most formidable two squads in the NRL and if they can finish in the top two they will likely meet in the decider in October.
The Roosters are coming off a torrid season with injuries and retirements but they still managed to finish fifth despite running out plenty of reserve grade players in 2021.
The Roosters youngsters would have learned plenty from the experience and with the return of star player Luke Keary and Lindsay Collins, coach Trent Robinson will have them primed for a revenge mission this season.
The Eels have a similarly strong squad despite some issues on their wings due to injury, but Brad Arthur will have them primed to take advantage of their premiership window before it shuts at the end of the year.
The Storm and the Panthers will be leading contenders again in 2022 and will likely be the other two sides in the top four, but we are tipping the Eels and the Roosters to make it all the way to the last game of the season.

EELS TO WIN THE PREMIERSHIP
Ding, dong the witch is dead. The longest NRL premiership drought is set to end in 2022 with the Eels winning their first title since 1986, some 36 years ago.
On paper the Eels have had the least disruption to their squad from last season, even though they have a plethora of stars set to leave the club in 2023.
Reed Mahoney, Marata Niukore, Isaiah Papali’i and Oregon Kaufusi are headed for greener pastures in 2023, while Dylan Brown and Ryan Matterson are no certainties to stay long term.
However every one of these players is on the books for 2022 and so the stars are aligning for one last shot at breaking the premiership hoodoo before the old band breaks up.
Mitchell Moses and Brown are another year into their halves partnership and Clint Gutherson will be supported by Junior Paulo in the captaincy role, which should free him up to get back to his best at fullback.
The biggest issue the Eels have is their lack of wingers with Haze Dunster out for the year and Maika Sivo gone until mid-season, but if they can add Brisbane flyer Jamayne Isaako they should have enough depth to weather the storm until the flying Fijian returns.
No one wants to see another Storm or Roosters Grand Final win so let’s swing for the fences and get long-suffering Parramatta fans dancing in the streets come October.
