I hope it does, my dad has been a fan of the Eels since the late 1950's, I would like to see the Eels win at least one more before he passes away.

What would we do without the channel nine commentary team ? 
For me Ch9 died when Rabs retired from fulltime broadcasting.What would we do without the channel nine commentary team ?
Wouldn't mine seeing a good online rival for Fox Sports to keep them honest. I feel they are becoming a bit flat the past few years.

It went downhill when Gould joined the commentary team. The bloke tries too hard to be funny and controversial for the sake of it.

Fortunately I only watch 4 games on 9 each season.
Remember when they'd delay the Friday night coverage by an hour because of Bourke's Backyard?

Yep. I remember around Super League when the Ch9 Friday night game was delayed to 9.30pm and they did a one hour edited Sunday afternoon 'match of the round'

I don't remember the 9:30pm start but I do remember the Sunday arvo edited game.
They've done some dumb things!
His mixed around way of ranking throws me off a bit. Are Timoko and Tago bumped up on career and predication? I wouldn't have them that high off last years form, even if Tago did play a good GF. Maybe I'm remembering something wrong but wasn't Timoko really good 2023 and pretty quiet 2024?
With main consideration being 2024 form I drop both those guys way down the list. And bring Ramien and Gagai both above Iro.
Be interesting to see where Lomax plays. Was determined to go back to centre and last I heard this was still the plan. But he should stay at wing I think most agree. 7 through 10 on this list didn't really blow me away last season although I guess not many jump to mind as clearly better.
Talau played 23 games for 18 tries 17 line breaks and 144 average running meters
Katoa played 24 games for 17 tries 22 line breaks and 145m and has a better career before that and I wouldn't straight up call him a top 10 winger headed into next season, but he probably has a fair case if Talau does.

I remember when it was Channel 7s Sunday League, a one hour show of the main game on Sunday night called by Rex Mossop.
I also remember the ABC match of the day on Saturday's in the 1970s with John O'Reilly calling the game along with Reg Gasnier.

The Saturday arvo ABC game was peak RL for me, it doesn't get any better than that.

Reckon I might give this a miss.
Four of the biggest names in footy have formed a boy band.
