Just three days after Brad Arthur claimed his side had hit rock bottom, Parramatta plunged to new depths on Tuesday when skipper Kieran Foran was ruled out for the rest of the NRL season. In a massive blow for the embattled club, the star playmaker will miss the remainder of the year after being forced to undergo shoulder surgery. Adding further pain for Eels fans, Foran's halves replacement Brad Takairangi will be sidelined for four weeks with a hamstring strain.
Foran left the field in Parramatta's 20-18 win over Newcastle on Monday night and the club confirmed on Tuesday he would have surgery.
The loss of the New Zealand Test playmaker is yet another body blow for the club after lurching this year from crisis to crisis.
