In a surprising move, Parramatta Eels head coach Jason Ryles has officially announced the termination of Eric Newbigging’s contract. The decision has sent shockwaves through the club and its fanbase, raising questions about the future direction of the team.
Newbigging, who has been with the Eels for several seasons, played a crucial role in developing the club’s strategies and fostering player talent. However, Ryles cited a need for change and a fresh approach as key reasons behind the decision.
“This was not an easy choice,” Ryles stated during a press conference. “Eric has contributed significantly to our team, but we believe that a new direction is necessary to achieve our goals moving forward.”
The announcement comes as the Eels prepare for the upcoming season, and fans are eager to see how the team will respond to this unexpected change. Ryles assured supporters that the coaching staff will work diligently to ensure a smooth transition and maintain the competitive edge of the team.
