Eels table mammoth four-year deal for Rabbitohs star

https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/eels-table-mammoth-four-year-deal-for-rabbitohs-star-20251210-p5nmci.html

Parramatta have tabled Keaon Koloamatangi a monster four-year offer in a bid to prise the representative forward out of South Sydney.

The Roosters are also monitoring the situation, given forward Angus Crichton is off contract and considering a switch to rugby at the end of next season. Perth also inquired about 27-year-old Koloamatangi’s plans, but were told he wants to remain in Sydney.

However, the Eels are shaping as a genuine threat to South Sydney’s bid to retain the former NSW and Tonga star. Sources not authorised to speak publicly told this masthead the Eels have weighed in with a four-year offer worth seven figures a season.

Parramatta officials, including coach Jason Ryles, have met with Koloamatangi and his manager.

              • I'm sure he hasn't...ffs

          • WTF are u going on about 😂

    • John, we're already doing that with extending junior forwards. And they're costing less than $500k a pop.

      • The more the merrier Super !

  • I hope this is true.

    1 million is more than he should get, but it's the price set by the market. 

    We will get value out of him with a great Halfback helping take advantage of the platform he helps lay. 

    Very happy. Even better if Junior agree to extend on a modest contract.

    Great group of forwards here:

    De-Belin, Moretti, Hopgood, Doorey, Latu, Kautoga, Koloamatagi, Paulo, Ryda, Walker, Tuivaiti, Funa-luta, Williams, Guymer.

     

  • Good signing and the price is fair, considering haas and tino want 1.4, keon at 1mill sounds about right. I think once the tv deal is anounced 1mill for his calibre would be good value

  • So when do the Eels find out if he's going to sign or not? Still need a replacement for Lomax
