PARRAMATTA EELS STARS AND PARTNERS SHINE AT GLAMOROUS END-OF-SEASON CELEBRATION
While the Parramatta Eels may be watching the NRL finals from the sidelines this weekend, there was no shortage of smiles, sparkle, and style as the team came together on Tuesday night for their annual presentation gala — the club’s most glamorous night of the year.
Held at a luxury Sydney venue, the evening was a chance for players, coaches, and partners to swap footy boots for formalwear and celebrate an encouraging end to the 2025 NRL campaign. Though the Eels narrowly missed the finals, the event was filled with optimism for the future, as the squad reflected on key improvements, standout performances, and the emergence of exciting young talent.
Star playmaker Mitchell Moses arrived arm-in-arm with his partner, glowing with happiness following the recent birth of their twins — a moment that had already warmed the hearts of Eels fans across the country. Club captain Clint Gutherson and his partner turned heads on the red carpet, while forward Junior Paulo and his wife brought effortless style, with Paulo joking that it was “nice to dress up without tape and mud for once.”
Inside the ballroom, laughter and applause filled the air as awards were handed out for Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year, and the fan-voted Members’ Choice Award. Head coach Brad Arthur praised the team’s resilience and unity, telling the crowd, “This group showed what Parramatta spirit is all about — we’re building towards something special.”
As the night drew to a close, the message was clear: while 2025 may not have delivered finals glory, the Eels are recharged, united, and ready to strike back stronger than ever — both on and off the field.
