You can't ask for much more from the first trial of the season after the Parramatta Eels piled on the points against the Newcastle Knights and escaped without any major injuries. Jason Ryles was left with plenty of food for thought following the victory and The Tip Sheet looks to add extra servings to his plate as Sixties and Forty20 breakdown the game.

It was on for young and old as both established stars and fresh new faces impressed but the boys look at how the team played on a macro level in their initial dissection. What has changed under Ryles (and his new coaches) and how much powder was kept dry?

Finally, the show runs through a comprehensive list of who caught the eye and it features plenty of young talent. What changed in the battle at fullback? Did the Eels unearth a true deputy to Mitchell Moses? Who dacked Zac Lomax?

We have all the answer on The Tip Sheet!
