after 13 years I am back, i went the the parra v storm gf as a 7 year old kid and was so guttered, eels about to play the panthers in the top 4 game, so excited as a true blue parra fan, hope this year is our year. its a shame the greats of the 09 era will never see the trophy but hopefully we can lift it this year.
Yeah Burtie goes good. I was at his first game first round 1998 in front of 100k ppl. He had a great game and knew he would be a star. He featured heavily in the highlight reel.
the pure footy skills of that whole team is just unbelievable, their quick passing in broken play and the fact that there was so many people backing up whenever there was a break
I'm watching this over now... we are in 2014 and it's still unbelievable. I wish this parramatta team could reunite and be this outstanding team again.
In this video Jarryd Hayne set up 15 out of 30 tries for Parra. That's one in every 2 set up tries just in this video. Absolute Vintage year for Jarryd Hayne.
I was overseas woking for many years and did not see many seasons and winners and losers but just viewing highlights for this year and amazed by Jarryd Hayne, an unbelievable footballer.Well done Parra.
Andrew Johns recently said that Newcastle's run this year was like Parramatta 2009 or 2005, the big difference is for the most part, Parramatta were destroying teams on their run to the grand final in 2009, Newcastle have had some tough gritty wins but they haven't been belting teams (except Canterbury) like Parramatta did.
our run last year was amazing :) everyone says it was luck but all us parra fans know it was pure skill and determination! parra are starting to do the same as they did last year :) lets hope they do and this time can get a win in the grand final!!! PARRA FOR LIFE :)
I gotta say brilliant to parramatta and the fans...most amazing comeback I've ever seen...and I'm a warriors fan born and bred...I was cheering for Parramatta in the grand Final too...! Well, maybe this year (2010) if the warriors don't get there first.Although 6 weeks in and Parra don't seem to be firing properly yet...maybe saving it for a late run again..? X-D
jovaniohk ditori if Melbourne were knocked out before the top eight, the Tigers would have been in. And they were similar to the eels, they were horrifying at the start of the season, but came strong at the end, I think it would've been those two in the grand final. But I'm not sure who would have won.
No mate, doesn't work like that in team competitions. When people cheat in events like the 100 meter spring you can simply give the award to second place, because they were the best non-cheaters and therefore deserved winners. But in 2009, if the Storm had been pulled up earlier for cheating, Parramatta would still have had to face someone else in the Grand Final, and there's no guarantee that they'd beat them. It's not simply a case of giving the Premiership to the runners up.
this was a great season for parra !!! probably one of the greatest runs to the g.f ever , after being near the bottom of the ladder near the end of the 26 rounds
This was one of the best farytales in rugby league ever that I got a chance to watch!!! first team in rugby league history from 8th place to make it to the Grand final!! frikin awsome! The Hayne plane and Moi moi train!!! loved every second of every game the eels played! some of the best finals games I watched were the eels downed the Dragons,Tigers and Dogs! though we deserved the Grand final coz the Storm fuking got salary capped, it was one of the best farytale finishes ever! GO THE EELS!!!
Great year and although we went down in the GF we went down fighting and have nothing to be ashamed of. IMO opinion Moi Moi's try was one of the greatest and most passionate rugby league tries to date. Bring on 2010!
There will never be another player to dominate a finals series like Jared Hayne did that year. To think it came down to another great fullback (Billy) in the GF to be awarded with a penalty for been held down, at a pivotal moment(again the eels were losing but were just starting to look the side they were throughout the pre-lims) man, had they won. Melbourne had a game plan that was if Hayne was to crab across the field(like he had been doing all through prelims) he was not to come back the opposite way. Damn i so wanted Luke Burt to go out a winner. Such a smooth operator.
Great vid....As a Dragons fan I was devo about the rematch loss, but I have to say the Eels played some of the best footy i have ever seen in the premiership when they were running hot...incredible, improvised support play with Hayne conducting and great belief in themselves....Their more structured approach in '11 doesn't seem to be working for them as it does for teams like saints and storm etc ..maybe each team has to find itsown way of winning rather than imitating others....
I noticed that people say Jarryd Hayne almost single-handedly led Eels to grand final that year. Daniel Anderson moved him from five-eighth to centre and then FB, which was his preferred position. While Hayne played FB, he had skills of a five-eighth which added an X-Factor to the team. At the start of ‘09, they played too structured.
Great run but unfortunate they ran into probably the only side that was capable of stopping them. Bellamy had a great game plan, he ran Blair and Hoffman at Robson and Mortimer all night.
Great video mate, what a ride of a season, I hope all Parra players and supporters grow to hate the storm, lets get the rivalry going, with these bastards
its funny ive watched this heaps but Its ahrd to see what My beloved eels did special it seems they got the rub of the green they ran hard and wanted to win more than opponents simple but oh so good to witness
I remember I went to a parra vs cronulla coach by sticky I am pretty shore Barrett was the 6 Daniel Mortimer made his debut in the centres we lost that game but it was a turning point
go the eels for 2010. we need a premiership for cayless hindmarsh. grothe and moi moi were the best players for the grand final. i love grothe but he stresses me at times.
2013 will be a re building phase under Stuart. 2014 is where I'm also interested and looking forward to. A lot of players in the NRL coming off contract. Big name players. Who all love working under Ricky at Origin level. Next year, Ricky will assess who he wants to keep and who he's letting go. Ken Sio will be there for years to come I would say. 2013, anything better than the wooden spoon is considered successful. 2014 is where people will be watching just how good they can be recruitment wise
nah my bad, I take it back aye mate. his running a muck for NSW. i'm a fan of him once again. his just playing for a very average team.. he pretty much is the eels this year.
we really need hayne to have a year like that again! Except Kearney wouldnt allow that kind of passing. theres 20 minutes till the season starts, so we'll have to wait and see! WOOOO!
@bluefen Totally agree with your comments on the Eels. We can't play structured football. Hayne doesnt need a script, he is a brilliant ad lib footballer and he plays instinctive football. As a fan I am totally disappointed with the way we are playing. It seems our halves are afraid to take on the line, their kicking game lacks imagination just a regulation bomb every 5th tackle. The eels must go back to the formula of offloading wherever possible or else they will be wooden spooners
And you would know this HOW? Your talking about a complete stranger....i've met Jarryd, he's actually very SHY. Amazing how snots like you can jump inside the minds of strangers. He racked up 18 line-break assists and 24 try-assists last season, stats to rival Lockyer and Marshall's.....even more impressive that he did it in such a poor outfit.
@dodotheoneandtheonly It did seem like one person was beating entire teams but as soon as teams figured out how to shut Jarryd Hayne down they were completely useless in attack. That's why teams are always evolving otherwise they end up how Eels are now.
Geez what a turn around. They were flogging most teams there after round 18. Mostly thanks to Jarryd Hayne. I don't remember a more dominant player in the NRL besides maybe Andrew Johns.
+Stuart Grandquist Your right probably will especially with our team losing pts because of all the salary cap drama, say that about maybe half way through the season this is if we are lucky.. we might make a comeback in about round 15-20 and then win all of those games and come back up the ladder and THEN we will hopefully finish between 5-8 positions on the table. So that means that we created the 2016 comebackers haha or i mean that we had a 2009 season but repeated it :)
@forestfan3 what they did special was keep the ball alive... thye hog it so bad this year it was horrid but notice when we keep that ball alive theres NO stopping us...
Hayne played as well as he did here this year, the team around him just wasn't good enough. It shows that guys like Hayne and Thurston need more than themselves to win a premiership. The cowboys are surging though with the team as a whole getting better, Thurston is just as good as he always has been, showing it really is a team sport
Well said mate, hopefully the NRL NOT PENALISE THE FANS OR PLAYERS. I am concerned that the Eels offered Corey Norman 600k a year but he has rejected the offer & wants 800k a year. Too greedy.
My God... Jarryd Hayne was incredible. Great support play through the middle for almost every try too
MAN UTD ok and?
@M get a life I see u in comments all time
after 13 years I am back, i went the the parra v storm gf as a 7 year old kid and was so guttered, eels about to play the panthers in the top 4 game, so excited as a true blue parra fan, hope this year is our year. its a shame the greats of the 09 era will never see the trophy but hopefully we can lift it this year.
11 years later and this video is still a huge gee up
I'll be watching this in 2040 and say the same thing. This video will NEVER get old.
People forget or underestimate how good Luke Burt was.
they didnt even make a peep or whisper when he retired :( every play, every corner he had it covered, but nope...
Luke's the man
Yeah Burtie goes good. I was at his first game first round 1998 in front of 100k ppl. He had a great game and knew he would be a star. He featured heavily in the highlight reel.
@J. AlWhy u watchn Rugby League brah? Lol
MANCHESTER UNITED shut up why u watching this anyway
luke burt was my fav player next to hayne, there combo was great
the pure footy skills of that whole team is just unbelievable, their quick passing in broken play and the fact that there was so many people backing up whenever there was a break
I'm watching this over now... we are in 2014 and it's still unbelievable.
I wish this parramatta team could reunite and be this outstanding team again.
they are goin good this year
I know I’m 19 years late but go parra
In this video Jarryd Hayne set up 15 out of 30 tries for Parra. That's one in every 2 set up tries just in this video. Absolute Vintage year for Jarryd Hayne.
One of the greatest and most entertaining teams ever
what about the first 18 rounds of that season? get your hand off it
repeated song makes you feel like you're going insane
brings tears to my eyes. What a ride. Go you Eels in 2010.
this is the video that i watch to get myself pumped for the next game i'm going to (tonight)
I was overseas woking for many years and did not see many seasons and winners and losers but just viewing highlights for this year and amazed by Jarryd Hayne, an unbelievable footballer.Well done Parra.
What a season it was to remember. From round 18 being in 14th place - then to make the finals 🔥🔥🔥
this was an awesome year jarred hayne was always outstanding he still is for the eels parra need this spirit for 2014 go blus and gold
Andrew Johns recently said that Newcastle's run this year was like Parramatta 2009 or 2005, the big difference is for the most part, Parramatta were destroying teams on their run to the grand final in 2009, Newcastle have had some tough gritty wins but they haven't been belting teams (except Canterbury) like Parramatta did.
I wish we were like that these days
our run last year was amazing :) everyone says it was luck but all us parra fans know it was pure skill and determination! parra are starting to do the same as they did last year :) lets hope they do and this time can get a win in the grand final!!! PARRA FOR LIFE :)
Even in 2022, Grand Finalist..we are Parra for Life!
I gotta say brilliant to parramatta and the fans...most amazing comeback I've ever seen...and I'm a warriors fan born and bred...I was cheering for Parramatta in the grand Final too...! Well, maybe this year (2010) if the warriors don't get there first.Although 6 weeks in and Parra don't seem to be firing properly yet...maybe saving it for a late run again..? X-D
Eels were premiers that year as far as I am and anyone else should be concerned. Storms were cheats.
jovaniohk ditori if Melbourne were knocked out before the top eight, the Tigers would have been in. And they were similar to the eels, they were horrifying at the start of the season, but came strong at the end, I think it would've been those two in the grand final.

Except.... Melbourne...
This was the best season ever. I cant remember a season where there were so many good matches.
this was a great season for parra !!! probably one of the greatest runs to the g.f ever , after being near the bottom of the ladder near the end of the 26 rounds
Should have been our year for the premiership. Great video
I can't stop watching this its the Best
This was one of the best farytales in rugby league ever that I got a chance to watch!!! first team in rugby league history from 8th place to make it to the Grand final!! frikin awsome!

Great year and although we went down in the GF we went down fighting and have nothing to be ashamed of.
IMO opinion Moi Moi's try was one of the greatest and most passionate rugby league tries to date.
Bring on 2010!

Damn i so wanted Luke Burt to go out a winner. Such a smooth operator.
this is an awesome video its shows just what parra can do
The support play and offloads were amazing. They really need to go back to that style of play.
Great video we’re contenders next year boys
Great vid....As a Dragons fan I was devo about the rematch loss, but I have to say the Eels played some of the best footy i have ever seen in the premiership when they were running hot...incredible, improvised support play with Hayne conducting and great belief in themselves....Their more structured approach in '11 doesn't seem to be working for them as it does for teams like saints and storm etc ..maybe each team has to find itsown way of winning rather than imitating others....
2015 will be the year of eels!
Swaneels ya reckon? ;)

While Hayne played FB, he had skills of a five-eighth which added an X-Factor to the team. At the start of ‘09, they played too structured.
we are in pretty much the same position in 2011 so lets hope we can pull this off again
Great video and soundtrack, really gets you into the spirit. GO EELS!
Hoping the Eels are like this next year. especially with Barba, Tonga and Roberts in the side. Should be epic.
Great video.
here we are again
13yr drought to face the prelims in enemy territory.
lets go parra
Hayne and his red boots..played the best ive ever seen
What a season they had go parra😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
The amount of times I watched this shit as a kid 😂😂 what a video
Unstructured footy. How entertaining it is to watch and how hard it is to defend against
How f'n good was hayne!!!!! I can not get over it absolutely un real
so trueeeeeee if we had those players i reckon parra would be in the top 8
What a year, Great video thanks for the upload !!!
Daneel loves ya work Benoir!
i wish they could still play like this :(
bloody hell, when they wanna entertain they are brilliant.
hayne was untouchable in 09
Great run but unfortunate they ran into probably the only side that was capable of stopping them.
Bellamy had a great game plan, he ran Blair and Hoffman at Robson and Mortimer all night.
what a pass at 2:53.
Jarryd Hayne and FuiFuiii were in great formm.
well done!
I have a feel our mighty eels may be coming back from a rocky start!! 2010 eels cmon boys!
awesome video go parramatta jarryd hayne will bring it home with fui fui moi moi and hindmarsh
Great video mate, what a ride of a season, I hope all Parra players and supporters grow to hate the storm, lets get the rivalry going, with these bastards
He's murdered our FOOTY hasnt he.....
3:08 the most underrated try..
Watching this to remind myself the Eels aren't always terrible, although 2012 has been a struggle... I hold high hopes for 2014 :)
its funny ive watched this heaps
but Its ahrd to see what My beloved eels did special
it seems they got the rub of the green
they ran hard
and wanted to win more than opponents
simple
but oh so good to witness
I remember I went to a parra vs cronulla coach by sticky I am pretty shore Barrett was the 6 Daniel Mortimer made his debut in the centres we lost that game but it was a turning point
go the eels for 2010. we need a premiership for cayless hindmarsh. grothe and moi moi were the best players for the grand final. i love grothe but he stresses me at times.
its funny how people say eels are a one man team, it was actually like a 6 man team with hayne, moi moi, burt, mateo, hindmarsh and MAYBE inu.
2013 will be a re building phase under Stuart. 2014 is where I'm also interested and looking forward to. A lot of players in the NRL coming off contract. Big name players. Who all love working under Ricky at Origin level. Next year, Ricky will assess who he wants to keep and who he's letting go.

found the song name Tom Snare - Straight Dancing (Raggae mix)
We parra fans must have faith. It can be done, this video is proof
2010 favourites. Nek minnit
And you would know this HOW? Your talking about a complete stranger....i've met Jarryd, he's actually very SHY. Amazing how snots like you can jump inside the minds of strangers.

go parra in 2014 good year for parra 2009
thx go parra
Yes, I was very shocked when I saw that.
@MrManawa Next year they might do well with Stephen Kearney under the helm,
He was the 2010 Four Nations Winners Coach.
Geez what a turn around. They were flogging most teams there after round 18. Mostly thanks to Jarryd Hayne. I don't remember a more dominant player in the NRL besides maybe Andrew Johns.
And yet you still get people saying jarryd Hayne isn't one of the greats
@@Ericthefilo one good season and you call him one of the greats LOL
Sick video man, cant wait for next season.
Also to see hayne and moimoi in state of origin. GO BLUES! GO PARRA!
pittchaser wow this comment was 10 years ago... this makes me feel so old. Hopefully 2020 is our year we doing good so far
"They are listed the 2010 premiership favourites" Ah, if only we knew.
Nice video, might happen again in 2016!!
+Stuart Grandquist Your right probably will especially with our team losing pts because of all the salary cap drama, say that about maybe half way through the season this is if we are lucky.. we might make a comeback in about round 15-20 and then win all of those games and come back up the ladder and THEN we will hopefully finish between 5-8 positions on the table. So that means that we created the 2016 comebackers haha or i mean that we had a 2009 season but repeated it :)
Beaten by a team of cheats! Thats what a took to beat this team. Such amazingly brilliant to watch.
@CalLoweR0X yer, a mistake made by the team, theyve bought players that can actually perform well, next year bro, wait and watch.
Parramatta should be on 5 premierships instead of 4!.
Luke Burt is an unsung hero! the boy is always there! CHAMPION UP PARRA!!!
daniel mortimer abit of an unsung hero in this winning streak
@forestfan3 what they did special was keep the ball alive... thye hog it so bad this year it was horrid but notice when we keep that ball alive theres NO stopping us...
Hayne played as well as he did here this year, the team around him just wasn't good enough. It shows that guys like Hayne and Thurston need more than themselves to win a premiership.

Eels 2009- Fairytale Run
Eels 2013- Fairy's.
Forgot to mention the storm won after cooking the books
now she does
yeah i agree
man when we were good :(
Eels + confidence = force to be reckoned with
Eels + no confidence = wooden spooners
Too good aye. Hopefully Jarryd Hayne will come back to the eels.
GO PARRA!!!!!!!!!!
no way you win the premiership this year!
Well said mate, hopefully the NRL NOT PENALISE THE FANS OR PLAYERS. I am concerned that the Eels offered Corey Norman 600k a year but he has rejected the offer & wants 800k a year. Too greedy.
Agreed
Great video mate.
