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?

Or ... he throws an intercept with 30 seconds left on the clock and wins us a spoon 😂, imagine that went down lol. Now that would be something that would be logged in Eels folklore right next to Paul Carige . As an Eels fan , I reckon I'm not alone in thinking that'd be more our kinda luck.
Yeah you just know that's what would happen...
The only way he will play again is if Hawkins,papalili,volkman are all injured
Which given our season , is a strong possibility .
I'm mixed about it. Feel like he has let us down at so many turns.
So I don't give a tinkers damn.
Perhaps if it helps out our team either this year or next. I'm just so over the name Dylan Brown
Ryles already said he'll only play if there's significant injuries in key positions.
He won't be brought back for any farewell party
I'm appointed myself the Dylan Brown farewell party organiser, his presents been ordered .
Chiefs already sent me his money to attend , anyone else that's in , inbox me .
Lol how could you say no ?
It all depends on where we are by seasons end.
If we are playing for a spot in the 8 or playing to aviod the spoon, no. But if we are clear of both, I think he'll play.
Brad Arthur showed no respect for some of our past great and popular players as with FUI , he was a much loved player for the EELS and at the time I was disappointed and discussed.
