Eels farewell departing players

The Parramatta Eels have bid farewell to four players following the conclusion of the 2021 NRL season.

 

Blake Ferguson, Joey Lussick, Michael Oldfield and Sam Hughes will depart the Eels to pursue other opportunities.

 

General Manager of Football Mark O’Neill thanked each of the players for their contribution during their time at Parramatta.

 

“These players have made a significant contribution to our club particularly Blake Ferguson who has been part of our squad since 2019.

 

The past two years have been challenging for all the players and clubs in the NRL. The commitment of these players during that time is commendable.

 

“We thank them for their service and commitment to the Club and we wish them all the best for their next stage of their careers and lives. There will always be part of our Blue and Gold family”

 

The Eels will pay tribute to the contributions of these players who will be officially farewelled at the club’s end-of-season Ken Thornett Medal.
