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.

Oh no far from it NOS. I like the signing. Just don't want it where they only got him to get Keaon for example as opposed to to getting him at they feel he can improve us.
But if we get a top middle and dare i say LPT, Su'A becomes a luxary signing in that don't really need him but we will take him anyway.

Nos are u happy to pay the best part of 2 mil for 2 back rowers/ props?
I don't think Keaon is worth the $$ he's being offered on face value, but, the fact we are in desperate need of his position / style of player / replacement for Paulo dictates his price for the Eels - just my opinion though.
Watching our starts / middle being dominated across the first 6 rounds only strengthens that thought - whether that's Kaeon or someone else who can be that alpha role, doens't phase me.

"If it means he comes early now, no point saints having him there if he missing several weeks. We use that time for him to learn our shapes etc, serves his suspension and is ready to go. Like the idea "

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
No. You're wrong again pop
Clarify your statement Chiefy, after all when ws the last time you were right?
A clock’s right twice a day Poop… so technically I should be due any minute 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.
Not a fan of Su'a, LB?

Hey Darren, do you mean for Su'a & Koloamantangi?
What are we paying Su'a per year?

Would you target a different prop?
