NRL Parramatta Eels

[CWC]

They probably could go after Madge, Bennet hasn't completed the signing yet so not 100% yet

Unless Para throw 2 mill a year at Bennett, I don't think he's going.

Bennett been signed to a three year Souths deal, so it won't be Bennett

Eels have a better squad than Souths currently. Surely be a more attractive offer, plus the lure of another club he can win a premiership at

Moses?

He acts on behalf of Mitchell Moses (player option in 2027), Will Penisini (player option in 2026) and off-contract rookie sensation Blaize Talagi, who has opted against taking up his option with the Eels for next season and has opened conversations with the Dragons and Knights, among others.

Sources with knowledge of the situation, talking under the condition of anonymity in order to speak freely, told this masthead that Isaac Moses is pushing the case for his client Blake Green.







Interesting post I came across on the knights LU forum. Had heard Blake Green’s name talked about

Unique at this club with Mitchell Moses related to the agent. He’s held power at clubs before, but this could be worse with someone on the inside?

And Mitchell being one of the top half backs means lots of clubs would pay big dollars for him.

He could have been apart of the issue of Brad Arthurs losing his job with him apparently blaming Isaac Moses in part for his dismissal? Amongst bad recent results of course

If parramatta are serious about the next coach it would be one of........

Jason Ryles
Micheal Maguire
Justin Holbrook
At a Pinch Wane from England.

That's it really?

Unless they want TJ Ashford

Parramatta Eels appoint Jason Ryles as Head Coach for four seasons from 2025​

The Parramatta Eels are delighted to announce the appointment of Jason Ryles as the Club's new Head Coach for the next four seasons from 2025 onwards.

Ryles will join the Eels from his current club, the Melbourne Storm.

After a long and successful career as a player where he represented both NSW and Australia, Ryles began his coaching career in 2014. During his coaching career, Ryles has been an Assistant Coach with the Melbourne Storm between 2016 and 2020, which included 4 grand finals and 2 premiership wins, an Assistant Coach with the England Rugby team between 2020 and 2021, an Assistant Coach with the Sydney Roosters between 2022 and 2023, before returning to the Storm in 2024.

Ryles is considered one of the best emerging coaches in the game and brings a wealth of experience in winning environments and high performance cultures to the Eels, while also having been mentored by two of the most respected and successful coaches in the game in Craig Bellamy and Trent Robinson.

"We are delighted to welcome Jason to the Parramatta Eels", said Eels Chairman Sean McElduff.

"Jason's proven track record in winning environments, combined with his passion for developing young talent perfectly aligns with the direction we are taking our Club. We have a strong NRL roster and a group of exciting young players coming through our pathways programs. We believe Jason is the ideal person to build a strong connection within the playing group, across the Club and with the passionate Parramatta Eels fanbase."

"We are entering a new era for our football program, and we’re thrilled to secure someone of Jason’s calibre as the leader of our NRL team moving forward. He is highly regarded as a coach and we believe that he has a huge future in the NRL. We are confident that under Jason’s leadership, our Club will be challenging for premierships in the years to come." said Eels CEO Jim Sarantinos.

Ryles expressed his delight about joining the Club.

"I am incredibly honoured to be appointed Head Coach of the Parramatta Eels," he said.

"This is a Club with a rich history and a passionate fanbase. I look forward to coaching these young men."

Out of respect for Jason’s current coaching commitments with the Storm, we will not be making any further comment until he completes his duties with the Storm and joins the Eels later this year.

Not parra related, but Bellamy is contracted to 2027 and Slater is contracted with QLD to 2026. Unless Hinchcliffe or someone else is the new heir apparent, it does seem quite nicely laid out for Slater to get his 5 straight Origin series wins, have a year off riding horses, then take the Storm job

BREAKING Latest Hoops Scoop tells us Samoan international Sualauvi Fa'alogo and Grant Anderson have asked for releases to follow their mentor Jason Ryles to Parramatta. Clint Gutherson has already offered to move to left centre to accommodate the arrivals.








Not sure if there’s any truth to this

Has anyone heard the bombshell Bellamy to Parra rumour?

Spoke to someone this morning who is definetely in the know and told me, but even he is saying it would be unbelievable due to nobody mentioning it in the media.

Hope it doesnt happen.

Ive been told this morning that Bellamy actually pulled out Thursday and this was legit, hence the delay.

Crazy.







Hard to say if there was any truth? According to this poster there was
