Jaydn Su’A Commits to Parramatta Eels (Official Club Statement)

The Parramatta Eels are excited to announce that Jaydn Su'A has agreed to join the club on a three-year contract commencing in the 2027 season and running through to the end of 2029.

A powerful and hard-running backrower, Su’A brings a wealth of experience and leadership to the Eels’ forward pack. Since making his NRL debut in 2016, he has gone on to play 160 first-grade matches, establishing himself as one of the competition’s most consistent and physical edge forwards.

Parramatta Eels GM of Football Mark O'Neill welcomed the signing, highlighting Su’A’s impact on and off the field.

"Jaydn has a strong physical presence, he is a competitor who leads through his actions. He can play big minutes, defend consistently, and will be great for our squad."

“He’s built a reputation on toughness and effort, and we believe his experience at both NRL and representative level will add value to our group as we continue to build for the future.”

In addition to his club career, Su’A has performed on the representative stage, earning selection for the Queensland Maroons in State of Origin and representing Samoa internationally.

"This is the thing Pops would you throw 1.2 for 3-4 seasons at Burton would we do that because that's what it's taking if your not going with at least that then we are wasting our time.
As you can best believe Perth Dragons and PNG are offering that…"

  What's all this talk of getting kaeon?, didn't he just sign a long term contract with the dragons?, what am I missing?.

    Just hoping he black flips cause Sua was a big reason he joined them. So only a very low chance that he leaves them lol

    Yeah there was reports he & Su'a wanted to play together, which was the reason Kaeon went to the Dragons.
    
    Let's be honest, it was probably more the 1mil per season for 5 years - but, with the Dragons predicament, if there is any hope of him backflipping & joining Su'a at the Eels we need to be taking it with both hands.
    
    As EA said, small chance, but stranger things have happened & getting both Su'a & Kalooamantangi could be a masterstroke from the Eels (and I am hoping was part of the reason they wen't for Su'a, but thats just hope).

        Here's hoping that Kaeon has a get out clause if Flanagan gets sacked.

        KK is going nowhere, his deal we could not get near. Besides that he is not that good.
        
        You know that his position himself via Bennet as more an edge than a middle now

      I hope it was the only reason for going for Keaon. I doubt it but if by some miracle we get Keaon, Su'A becomes a luxary.
