The Tip Sheet - 2024 Ep 26: Round 4 Post Game Show Feat. Eric Grothe Senior

The Tip Sheet was live from the Bistro following Parramatta's Round 4 loss to the Wests Tigers on Easter Monday. Sixties and Forty20 were joined by a genuine legend of the club in Eric Grothe Senior. The Guru discusses his debut in 1979 and the legendary conversion her made as a Kangaroo before sharing stories about his connection with Steve Ella and some of the best tries he scored as an Eel. Sixties raises the Immortal question once more and Eric delivers an emphatic response that there are multiple Immortal-tier players from the 1981-86 dynasty. Which current Eel runs like the Guru? The boys discuss Eric's unique and powerful running style and whether it was taught or something he grasped intuitively. The chat closes out with a look at the upcoming gigs for his band Eric and the Gurus and quick breakdown of the game against the Tigers.
