Junior Paulo Extends till 2026

The Parramatta Eels are happy to announce that we have re-signed front-row forward Junior Paulo on a four-year contract extension until the end of the 2026 season.

Making his NSW Origin debut in 2020,  Junior has made his mark as one of the NRL’s best front rowers.

 

Mark O’Neill, Parramatta Eels Club General Manager of Football said, “Junior is not just a skilful front rower, he is an asset to the Club both on and off the field. His selection into the NSW Origin team is a testament to his ability and the hard work he puts into his game.”

 

As a Parramatta Eels junior, he made his NRL debut for the Parramatta Eels in 2013 and is now approaching 200 NRL games.

 

A popular player amongst teammates, staff and fans, Junior also dedicates his time helping to inspire the next generation through his role as the Club’s ambassador for PCYC.

 

The Club is delighted that Junior, Mele and their children will continue to be part of our Blue and Gold family.

  • Nice work by the club gettig this one done. So I guess they'll put their attention over to Dylbro now.  Won't be that upset if we don't sign him given his speculated asking figures. Another one that doesn't seem to have any interest from other clubs given he's apparently a gun. 

    • What happened to all those that were saying His GONEEE that's why I don't make predictions and keep my fingers away from where they shouldn't be in cases like this. Thank Christ he did not let He whos Name i cant bring my self to say talk him out of being an Eel

      • Weed Mahoney

"Which is odd if true because VLandys is a pretty open book - he wants a faster game with more tries so he can sell more TV ad time and make the NRL worth even more in broadcast rights. 
We should have been ready for the touch footy. Other teams were."
