Araz Nanva signs Top 30 Contract for 2027

The Parramatta Eels are pleased to announce that emerging outside back Araz Nanva has extended his contract with the club for a further year and will be elevated to the Top 30 squad for the 2027 NRL season.

An Eels junior, Nanva’s extension comes on the back of a strong pre-season and his NRL debut last week.

 

Parramatta Eels GM of Football Mark O'Neill praised Nanva’s development and dedication.

“Araz has worked hard during the pre-season with his attitude and performance and bought in to the Club culture.

“To make his debut in Round 6 was a well-deserved reward, and we’re excited to see how he continues to develop. He’s a talented outside back who understands what it means to represent this club, and we’re pleased to have him locked in for 2027 as part of our Top 30.”

The Eels look forward to supporting Nanva’s continued development as he establishes himself at NRL level.

      • A few players would have an eye on PNG. The money Perth are throwing around makes it attractive to go to PNG for a pay day as they would throw double to nobodies to go there. There is even talk around that players might not get tax break fully. There are issues around it is both PNG government. If the case that will hinder them getting a host of players.

      • hes contracted for 28 

  • Great news! Glad they got it done quickly as suspect he attracted attention. 

  • Good work by the Club. Honestly I'd have been happy for him to get a 2 or 3 year deal 

  • Excellent

  • Rip in young fulla there's a long term spot wide open ready to be taken all the best to him.

  • Well, yesterday I reported that o'neill was a total flop.  Today with this news ill say he hasn't totally redeemed himself,  but he's jumped up to a 25% rating from 10%.  Keep this up and he's on track to be on frank ponesi's heels. 

    Very happy for Araz. Did everything right in pre season and played very well in his debut 

    Wouldn't be surprised if he starts this weekend,  with Russell still.not right 

  • Good for him. He deserves his shot

     

  • Timoko is not a solution for next year watching the game. Xerri and Tago are better options if we can somehow get one of them

"I watched some footage of Koina, he looks the goods. Could be one in 27' we start to keep an eye on in terms of FG. Hopefully he gets some Cup game time late this year."

"Though, if both were fit and able to play regardless of rules, Nanva i reckon gets the nod. It's a shame as Richie just cannot get any game time back to back in order to get a debut."

"Richie is taller and more athletic than Will. If anything is more suited to the Wing. Will is like To'o build, while Richie is more a Critta type build."
