Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

DAILY TELE: EELS FILL FOX HOLE

Parramatta have been locked in talks to sign former Canberra and Newcastle winger James Schiller as they continue to strengthen their squad and prepare for the expected departure of Josh Addo-Carr.

Schiller had another year remaining on his deal with the Knights, but was given permission to explore his options and it is understood he has been snapped up by the Eels as they look to add some depth and quality to their backline for next season.

The 25-year-old only made one appearance for the high-flying Knights last season after struggling to force his way into a side that went all the way to the grand final.

He made 17 appearances the previous season after joining Newcastle from Canberra.

The Eels are expected to be one of the off-season’s big players, having already made their mark by signing Samoan superstar Jarome Luai and Sydney Roosters enforcer Spencer Leniu.

They have also been tipped to have a big swing at Newcastle centre Bradman Best, who has a big-money deal on the table from the Knights which he is yet to accept.

Best is expected to head to market and Parramatta are frontrunners for his signature. Addo-Carr recently entered a rehab centre after failing a roadside drug test.

He is expected to be sacked by the Eels and faces a 12-match ban from the NRL if he lands at another club.

Makes sense and probably means Addo-Carr is 100% sacked
 
The girls have liked comments on Instagram of their family ripping into the club basically confirming it. The post has since been deleted. Just a shit show all round.
Complete amateur hour from the club isn’t it where the communication is a disgrace and there’s just rank unprofessionalism throughout the joint.
