BREAKING NEWS: TOUCH DOWN FEW MINUTES AGOPARRAMATTA — In a move that has stunned the rugby league world, Parramatta Eels superstar winger Josh Addo-Carr has reportedly requested an immediate release from his contract to pursue a historic cross-code switch to International Rugby Union.
The “Foxx,” who only recently joined the Eels, is said to have received a “once-in-a-lifetime” offer from a top European club that would make him one of the highest-paid players in either code. Sources at Kellyville Park say the board is “reeling” and scrambled into an emergency meeting this morning to discuss the request.
If granted, this would be the biggest cross-code jump since Joseph Suaalii, leaving the Eels with a massive hole to fill in their backline just as the 2026 finals race heats up.
