Zac Lomax has reportedly engaged a lawyer in an attempt to secure an unconditional release from the Parramatta Eels so he can join the Melbourne Storm.
It’s believed his legal team will argue that the situation is unfair and that their client now simply wants to play rugby league — despite the fact that only weeks ago he indicated he didn’t want to play at all. Chasing money often comes with consequences.
It’s unclear which lawyer he has approached, but you can expect plenty complaints and noise to follow.
For mine Lomax fought against the Parramatta club in a bid to get out of the contract he chose to sign. This left the Eels in a no win situation, as if we had forced Lomax to play against his will, that usually doesn't end well. But Lomax left the club in a predicament, with more cap dollars with minimal recruitment opportunities available in his position. We were banking on him to fulfil his 4 year deal.
We made the commitment, he broke the commitment. Either we get a like for like player from the Storm or its no deal Eddie.

Can someone do me a massive favour and get me a violin. I mean they cannot be serious right? We dogged him? I see just because he wanted to play Centre and we didn't let him?
Also, yes he is an Origin player.....on the Wing. Also thought they would be smarter as fans or maybe due to so much success they have no clue of average football. Saying he will be paired up nicely with Coates at Centre. Coates plays left, Lomax is right you nufties. Meaney will move to the left since he is leaving anyways and allow Lomax to play on the right.
It is so strange, Melbourne fans losing their minds with the Howarth link, yet Eels fans are mixed, some on TCT comments saying he is average. Like come on he is injury prone but average? If he played the full 80 in that GF it is a bit different for Melbourne.
Melbourne fans aren't happy about the link but.
Ha this is a laugh- Lomax has gone down in credibility here for me. We need a good swap of some value here...
I'd like Wiz or Fongs take on this one.
Where is the Wizard?? 🧙
Don't tell me they are both suspended again.
If they are FREE THEM BOTH - FFS.
Since this site began, they have added more to this site than any other member - bar maybe Snake. Let them air their opinions.
Frank The Tank mate I can only assume one or both are away or suspended. They add humour and character and that's what the site needs at all times. I think Wiz would have insight into Lomax too...his links with the Wollongong grouo
This has been confirmed in a blog under "Site News". Times Have Changed Frank, 1EE is progressing toward a safe space for all parra fans. Many, it would seem, are not posting in fear of being attacked. I can't wait for all of these long-censored opinons to fill the pages on here.
C'mon alll the lurkers out there, the bad guys have been suspended, time to speak up!
please don' call it a safe space. Don't get snowflake hopes up.
Yep, suspended again .
