- Fans can become members of the 'swarm' for games at Eels' house
- Similar to RBB with Western Sydney Wanderers de A-League
- Call to Arms was largely criticized by fans on social networks
A-League fans have made fun of the Eels Parramatta after the NRL club announced a 'new' initiative at the Combank stadium before their 11 games at home this year.
Like the famous red and black block followers (RBB) of the Western Sydney Wanderers, Eels has actively encouraged to join the 'swarm' with the football season now underway.
The swarm will be presented for the first time when the men of Jason Ryles receive the Wests Tigers on Sunday, March 16 from 4:05 PM AEDT with seats in Bay 121 and 122.
Memberships begin at $ 264 for adults, with concession and junior (16 and less) also available.
The Eels published on the swarm, which is clearly adapted from the Wanderers RBB support base, through their social media platforms on March 13.
It is not surprising that the feedback was wild.

The sports reporter Mike Tuckerman tweeted that the eels were “shameless” and a “complete scam of the genuine football culture”
“What a new creative concept,” said a baffled defender in X. “Haha trying to be (like) football fans,” said another.
A third asked: 'Are you paying us to unite?
The sports journalist Mike Tuckerman tweeted his belief that the movement of the eels was “shameless” and a “complete scam of the genuine football culture.”
Then he added his belief that the New South Wales Police has been “hard” with the Wanderers fans sometimes in recent years, especially in the A-League derby games that involves Sydney FC.
The Wanderers fanatic support base, the RBB, was established in 2012, before the club began its sports trip.
Success quickly continued in the field, with an appearance in the Grand Final of the A-League in its first season, before winning the Asian Champions League in 2014.
At its peak, the homemade crowds in the Combank stadium were electric due to RBB, but they have been reduced in recent years since the Wanderers have not been so successful.
RBB remains, but as the interest in national competition in conflict continues to decrease, so has done its numbers.
After the Tuckerman Tweet, some fans asked in X if the same number of officers will be in force in the NRL party of EELS.
Daily Mail Australia contacted NSW police to comment.
