Meanwhile, Feleti Mateo told The Sunday Telegraph he is prepared to settle for less money to remain at Parramatta and hopes to have his future sorted in the next fortnight.
The Warriors have thrown big money at the exciting backrower, believed to be around $400,000 a season, but Mateo would love to stick with the Eels.
"I'm willing to sacrifice some dollars to stay here," Mateo said.
"I love the club and people and think we're going down the right path. I took less money the last time I signed a contract and I'm happy to do it again. Others clubs were tossing more money at me, but I stayedhere."

read this Mateo..
But mate it's a pleasure to see that in this day and age it's not always about money.
I put my self In ur position & and do realise that money at times can be very attractive personally I would of been tempted
I hope ur signed and the eels reward you with what your really after .. The glory of been champions and having tha championship ring on your finger
that is something
money can't buy ...
Cmon Ozzie
signed up the players who are performing
we all no that the reason u held back was to make a play for thurston.. There my thoughts
notorious
As i shouted to you the other night on church st, while you were trying to have a private dinner ( sorry!!) "WE LOVE YOU MATEO :)"
I think as the season go's on Feleti will get better and better and staying at the club will ensure we are a chance of a few more championships. It is refreshing to see that money isn't everything and club loyalty still lives. I hope Parramatta can come up with a decent offer to retain Mateo for seasons to come.
Feleti is only 25 and if he plays well and keeps growing as a player when his next contract comes up, hopefully Parra will be in the position to finaciallly secure him again to see out his rugby playing days with the club.
