How Parramatta are going to fill these positions is the real question — because right now, it doesn’t add up.
You don’t lose that many experienced Top 30 players and simply replace them overnight, especially under a tight salary cap. The reality is they’ll be forced to lean heavily on unproven juniors, plug holes with bargain signings, and reshuffle what’s left of the squad. That might work long term if a few players click, but short term it screams lack of depth, inexperience, and a forward pack that could get rolled. Outside of Luai, this doesn’t look like a reload — it looks like a gamble.
Also the people questioning Anderson's strategy - Metcalf was an absolute powerhouse last night.
Some are saying the 2027 will be stronger than 26 - it certainly doesn't look like it

How's latu tracking? Isn't tyres lokene in the mix?
Latu did his ACL a while ago.
EA, do you actually see Latu as a legitimate option for NRL next year? With the likes of Funa-Iuta debuting and Petrus coming through maybe his time has gone due to injuries?
Yea I think injuries may get the best of him
That's his second one isn't it EA? Tyrese lokene ?
Let's do it let's find out what we have really.
Your at a point now where there's no better time like the present.
Its clear with a 20 th team coming online now junior development is where it's at.Start fast tracking talent or start looking for a new replacement for Mitch.OR swing hard in the market to maximise Mitch and Jerome that's the options or we can just continue to say our juniors aren't ready and we can't compete in the recruitment stakes imo the options are really simple ones.
Metcalf a great player but his body is made of tissue paper. Hamstrings worse then Turbos unfortunately. Prefer what Parra is building lol
