The Parramatta Eels are pleased to report a clean bill of health among the NRL squad ahead of the Round 2 clash with the Penrith Panthers.
Mitchell Moses sustained a groin issue during the Eels' season-opening win over the Bulldogs, but has been cleared of any major injury and has been named to play in Round 2.
Moses talks fitness and facing Penrith
Wiremu Greig and Toni Mataele, who both suffered hamstring strains at the end of pre-season, have each returned to full fitness and been named in the NSW Cup team to face the Panthers on Friday.
The Eels' only top 30 squad member unavailable for selection is Maika Sivo, who still has two games to serve on his suspension for a Careless High Tackle during pre-season.
Young outside backs Arthur Miller Stephen and Richard Penisini, who suffered long-term injuries during pre-season, remain in rehabilitation.
