It is one of The Tip Sheet's most anticipated episodes each year and the inimitable Bernie Gurr joins the show once again to recap and review the 2025 season for the Parramatta Eels. Sixties and Forty20 talk everything Blue & Gold with Gurr and tap into his keen mind to break down a massive year of transition and growth for the Eels under new coach Jason Ryles.

The show covers a broad range of topics starting with the importance of the Centre of Excellence and then through a series of focused footy questions. What did the Eels do to turn their season around after a dismal start? Which players and positional groups proved key during their scorching run home? Where do Parramatta need to improve and what positional should they be recruiting for?

Bernie also takes a look at the wider landscape of the NRL. How does season 2025 stand among recent years for the code? With the finals down to just four teams - who will be the last team standing? The boys wrap up the show with a look at the looming expansion for the code and what logistical and administrative challenges await Perth and PNG.
