Paulo's open to return

It's the rumour that won't go away - Canberra's Junior Paulo wants out to go back to Parramatta.

Raiders officials were last month confident of extending the contract of the hard-running prop beyond 2018. 

But it seems Paulo has other ideas, spending every spare weekend back in Sydney with his former Eels teammates, openly discussing his desire to be back in blue and gold.

  • Yep, its the rumour that wont go away, id not be surprised at all to see him back, some people are calling it done and have been for a while.

    • Snake wasn't it you who broke the Junior to the Raiders news? 

    • Hahah got a good memory mate haha
  • Depends on how much $

  • Well with Canberra well over the cap they just may have to let him go on our terms, for 400-500k i can see him being just what we need.

  • He is the prop we need
  • with the possibility of Paulo returning does anyone know how much we have left in the cap now that the final cap figure of 9.4 is confirmed. In terms on cap left i am implying that doesn't include the possible signature of  paulo. 

    • my guess is 800K due to the signing of moses and evans although that figure could become more with the retirement of Isaac degois. 

  • I'd love to get him back to Parra, he is the missing piece of the puzzle to our forward pack! 

  • Awesome, lets assume he has matured a lot and is clear on what it really means to wear the blue and gold eels jersey for the rest of his life.
