The Eels have unveiled their new-look halves pairing with recruit Jonah Pezet and star half Mitch Moses taking the field together at the club’s all-in training session.
150 players in the Eels’ system, from Harold Matthews (u16s) to first grade trained at Parramatta HQ on Saturday.
The player most onlookers had their eyes on though was Pezet, who signed a unique one-year bridge deal with the Eels for next season en route to a long-term contract with the Broncos from 2027.

Pezet has quickly made his presence felt according to his new teammates, with the 22-year-old set to start next season in the No. 6 jersey to form a lethal halves partnership with one of the game’s best halfbacks in Moses.
Pezet trained down the left edge with Moses directing traffic on the right side.
Fullback Isaiah Iongi, who recently put pen-to-paper on his own long-term deal, has been impressed by what he’s seen from the former Storm playmaker.
“He’s been doing really well in our team. He’s a loud talker, which, you know, we all like. So yeah, he’s fitting really well,” Iongi told Code Sports.
“It’ll be good I reckon, both (Moses and Pezet) of them talking off the back of each other.
“They’ve got a good system over there (at the Storm), so obviously he’s got a good connection with Rylesy. If he gets the opportunity to be part of the team, he’ll do a good job.
“For us this season, it’s just the start, getting to know each other’s connections and strengths. For this upcoming season, we’ll start strong.”
