I'll broach the elephant in the room. Parra's last game of 2025 (barring a miracle) is on Sunday the 7th of September at 4pm against the Knights at CommBank.
Do we give Dylan Brown one final send off before he heads to the Hunter with his squillions? A final lap of honour after the siren?
Whatever you think of him, he's been a loyal servant to the club for the past eight years.
Alternatively, we continue to ignore him and pretend the whole thing never happened.
Thoughts?

He does and he will, likely last home game.
No.
If Moses and Hawkins/Joash are going good, then NO.
As far as loyalty goes, he collected a huge paycheck and delivered the equivalent to a resident bludger at work. As far as loyalty goes, he wasn't thinking about the Eels when he had his off-field issues. As far as loyalty goes, he let his manager shop him around like he was selling fruit at Flemington markets. As far as loyalty goes, he jumped ship as soon as he was offered more coin.
Sing it with me "these hoes ain't loyal"
I like the sentiment, but we owe him nothing and should have benched him sooner.
100%

"these hoes ain't loyal yo"
Couldn't agree with you more. I hold no ill feelings towards DB but we owe him absolutely nothing. Parra needs to look to the future of winning comps and DB will not be involved in Parra winning any competitions.
Well let's be fair, how many of us here would take $1.4 mil for 10 years? He would be an idiot not to take it. Considering our offer, and rightfully so, was way less. If we offered say $1.2 mil then ok can talk about loyalty. Not his fault Newcastle were dumb enough to offer that money.
Exactly and him leaving actually opens up cap space for us so it's all good, not sure why people are mad 😂 his teammates still support him to,
