Parramatta Eels SG Ball and Jersey Flegg Lock Forward Max Popo has extended til the end of 2028. It is great news for the club as they strengthen their pathways further. From the Pacific Sports Management page.
It is also worth noting, from Pacific Sports, we also signed Stirling Mataniu Faumui, from the Wests Tigers pathways. He is a Utility but played a bit of Lock for Western Suburbs in Laurie Daley Cup. Might feature for SG Ball this year.

Lol there he is Mr Popo
I read somewhere that Stirling Mataniu Faumui is a halfback with a great kicking game and good organisational skills.
Can play half but is also a utility and played some Lock.
Max POPO is our version of Cam MURRAY. ( early early comparisions ). If POPO doesnt do his knee in the first 15 minutes of Sg Ball GF we win comfortably on the back of his workload and defence. He is a champion bloke, super respectful , does all the 1% right. He deserved that contract.
Sounds good PT.....should we wait a season and mould him into Ray Price....that puts him ahead of Cam Murray.
PS Ray would have played with that "knee" bit of tape and some rope to chew on and we would be home. How he played in that 81 GF on one leg is still a medical miracle! lol
