EELS ASK DRAGONS FOR SU’A IN 2026!
Reports circulating that the Parramatta Eel’s have made new discussions with the Dragon’s to allow Eel’s new signing for the 2027 season Jayden SU’A join the club early in 2026, off the back of many injuries this is a call for help.
Parramatta Eel’s General Manager of football, Mark O’Neill has stated yesterday in a stadium tour with fans that Eel’s are actively looking at options before the June 30 deadline.
Mark was also asked about Herbie Farnworth, which he indicated that it’s something the club could look at or would love to have on board.

Doesn't mean Herbie will be a great Fullback though. I think he could very well be but we have nothing to show he can be. He's always been a Centre. Even for England he hasn't been moved to Fullback. If anything I though they would put him there.
The risk I see is if he doesn't work out, which is a possibility no matter how slim, what do you then? When we had Iongi who is great. Plus I think Iongi can be elite. Yeah he's not Walsh but what he can do with balm in hand, passing, making plays with offloading and metres. I mean Edwards doesn't move like Walsh, Ponga and the likes and is elite.
Can be, not will be.
He is a dream but just can't see him coming down here for us less than 1.2M and even then to we cellar dwellers. Be nice but he gonna get huge offers from Perth and png too. Only thing is if he ain't an Aussie citizen he pays tax on png money so might rule them out...but doubt it. Be shonky as hell stuff go on there to get their man. Not like nrl gonna nab em on any shonkiness either.
Herbie and Lucas would be too amazing to believe ;))
Exactly right Macy and with 2 new expansion teams on line this only exasperates the value of the player in the wrong direction for a team like ours.There are zero bargains anymore if you are an elite talent or an up n comer like Lucas.Alot will say the vaunted line he isn't worth that but guess what with the lack of quality and with there being 2 new teams in the mix the value goes up for everyone even your depth and mid tier guys.Russell is a perfect example of that.650 at Perth I bet you he's on half that here I'd put money on it.
FYI I'm lead to believe the $650k number for Russell is a little misguided. Was closer to 400k
Where did you hear that from? Also AE, i hope you accept my apology for the post this morning, my intention was not to come off that way and upon reflection i can see how you took it that way.
I'd rather not say but definitely connected somewhat. All good about before. It's very easy to misconstrue tone in these written formats. I have to check myself everyday as I often come across quite blunt lol
We all have times where we say things and go off that is wrong.
Connections with just Perth or others?
it wont matter who we buy or how many, if we don't get our systems and attitude right
Need something good. Seeing Dylan Brown destroying opponents. This is depressing give us something
Brown was extremely good and has gone to new level at the Knights.
