The NRL has handed Parramatta Eels playmaker Mitchell Moses a two-year suspension following a serious breach of league conduct policies. The announcement, made Friday, has sent shockwaves through the rugby league community.
According to NRL officials, Moses was found guilty of violating integrity guidelines, though specific details of the breach remain undisclosed. The league emphasized the importance of upholding its standards and integrity in the sport.
NRL CEO Andrew Abdo stated, “This decision was not made lightly. We hold all players accountable to the highest standards, and this serves as a reminder that no one is above the rules.”
The suspension is a significant blow to the Eels, who have relied on Moses’ leadership and skill as their star halfback. The club expressed disappointment in the situation but pledged to support Moses during this time.
We are committed to working with Mitchell to help him through this difficult period while continuing to maintain our focus on the upcoming seasons,” the Eels said in a statement.
Moses, 29, has been a key figure for Parramatta, helping the team reach multiple finals campaigns in recent years. In a personal statement, he apologized to fans and teammates: “I take full responsibility for my actions and will work hard to regain the trust of those I’ve let down.”
The suspension leaves the Eels with a significant gap in their roster as they prepare for the 2025 season. Further details regarding the breach and potential appeals are expected in the
coming days.
