Merritt to Parra?

Dumped to reserve grade and off contract at the end of the year, speculation is rising that South Sydney Rabbitohs great Nathan Merritt could be leaving the club.

If Merritt does leave the Rabbitohs, the Parramatta Eels loom as a logical new home for the 153-try flyer.

With Eels coach Brad Arthur taking a more flamboyant approach to his side’s structure, Merritt’s finishing ability would be a welcome addition to a relatively inexperienced backline.

Merritt’s relationship with reformed halfback Chris Sandow could be another telling point in a possible switch.

I wouldn't mind having Merritt at parra could see him kick sio out of the squad when he is in form.

Any thoughts?

  • Any thoughts? Yeah scroll down first.
  • I'll reply again. No way!!
  • My thoughts are swap Sandow for Reynolds

  • No way ill prefer Eric Grothe jr back then him

  • oh didnt see it 

  • For starters, I highly doubt Sandow will be at the club next season and secondly I don't want Merritt anyway! Past his prime.
    • Yeah what Billy the Kid said. I'd probably say Nqld before Brisbane given Brisbane already have hunt and have signed Milford. I also wouldn't be surprised if he went to England. He would probably be a God over there.
  • Chris Walker

  • I'd rather keep Kenny Sio
  • What we have are better as merritt was and is and will never be any good, can't tackle, return kick, no good under the high ball, very average and reserve grader at best.
