How Many Good Players have Left Eels

Now we know Zac Lomax has gone and left Parra for yellow  💰 💰 💰 pastures. I'm wondering over the years how many other good players have left Parra with either contract not completed or other reasons.

1. Lomax

2.?

  • The concern at the moment is who do you bring in. We do not have any kids other than Richie Penisini coming through and even he has issues with injuries. Reuben Garrick's name been mentioned, only other Wingers off-contract worth while are Murray Taulagi and Sione Katoa but we need someone this year. Unless somehow we get a Sivo type diamond in the rough out of nowhere.

    • true! It's extremely disappointing that Lomax has gone after only 1 year! It's definitely made it much harder now for Eels Premiership hopes for 2026. Let's just hope that Ryles has a few players lined up that can replace Lomax. Not only are the Eels affected by this but also NSW Blues and the NRL as well. Do you think Lomax has already signed with Union or is intending to sign or just wants release to further pursue his options and may even decide to return

    • I think we seen contracts mean nothing In nrl these days 

      • Exactly not worth the paper they're written on 

      • And we should exploit that looking for a new Winger.

       What the Eels must not do is rush into the wrong players looking for a band aid solution for next season. If the right player/ players are not available now, the Eels must wait a year or more and target the right player/ players. The Pezet deal is somewhat different as the Eels believe they have their future #6 but he isn't ready at this stage.

  • Judas Lyon

    • Yep went to Manly

  • IMO, Jamie Lyon was the biggest loss to the Parra club. He was only young too. Could have built the team around him for many years. I doubt Manly would have been as successful without him. 

    The other losses worth a mention, was big Semi and Hayne at their prime.
