The Age
In a major blow to Parramatta, Dylan Brown has opted to leave the Eels and join the Newcastle Knights on a lucrative 10-year deal worth $14 million. The talented five-eighth will make the switch at the end of the current season, forcing the Eels to search for a replacement. With Brown's departure, the Eels will need to reassess their squad and potentially target other top NRL players to fill the void. The Knights, meanwhile, have secured a major coup in signing one of the competition's most promising young players, boosting their chances of success in the National Rugby League.
