  • YES!!!! Hope this ain't BS.

    • Official email from Parra Eels confirms this PFOTH. Unusual detail. Says he has an option til 2031.

      The Parramatta Eels are delighted to announce Dylan Brown has agreed to a multi-year extension to remain at the Club until at least the end of 2025 with an option to remain an Eel until 2031.

      • Anyone know what $ DB will be on? That might give an insight to what will be left for Mosses. 

  • Email just arrived from the club believe it

  • The Parramatta Eels are delighted to announce Dylan Brown has agreed to a multi-year extension to remain at the Club until at least the end of 2025 with an option to remain an Eel until 2031.

    Dylan has progressed through the Eels Junior Pathways system since 2016 and has made 82 first grade appearances for the Club following his NRL debut in 2019 at just 18 years of age. Dylan has also represented New Zealand in 5 Test matches.

    “I left New Zealand to pursue an NRL career when I was 15, and the Eels have been home for me ever since. It’s been an amazing journey so far, and the Club has an exciting future that I want to be part of for a long time,” Dylan said.

    “I’m grateful to be a part of this Club, from Brad and the coaches to my teammates, all the staff, our members and fans, I couldn’t picture myself anywhere else.”

    Parramatta Eels General Manager of Football Mark O’Neill said, “Dylan has just played the best season of his career helping us reach the Grand Final and earning him a representative spot for the Kiwis at the World Cup, and at just 22 years of age his best footy is still ahead of him.

    “He’s a wonderful contributor to our Club both on and off the field and we’re excited that he’ll continue to be an integral part of our organisation for many years.  As valuable as Dylan has been to the team’s performances, he’s already a great role model for other players through the way he connects with our community partners, our members and our fans.”

     

     

    • Yes got the email too; strange one with the option? Surely it needs to be clarified.

      • As a non-critical members of the negotiaitions, I'm sure we will get our clarification via Rothfield, Ritchie etc and that is it.

        I'm also sure there will any amount of speculation available for fans to feast upon and form their own opinions. 

        Yes the deal is unusual but maybe we will become trend setters.

        • No doubt those bozos will rip the club for signing him for so long

          • We didn't sign him for any longer than an extra 2 years.  However we did lock ourselves into being forced to the remuneration package for him until 2031.  Probably the biggest risk I've seen in Rugby league from a recruitment and retention aspect EVER !  

            Im hoping the NRL actually reject it . 

             

            • Couldn't agree less.

              The club is locking in semi final appearances for years to come.
