The Parramatta Eels have announced the extension of contracts for players Saxon Pryke, Ryda Talagi, and Christopher Petrus.
Each of these players is a product of the Parramatta Eels Academy and has advanced through the club's development pathways.
Pryke is the most recognized member of this trio, having made his debut earlier this year and nearly doing so last season.
This forward is anticipated to be a potential bench option for coach Jason Ryles next year, having re-signed until the end of 2028.
Talagi is set to make his debut this weekend against the Cronulla Sharks and has also secured a deal extending to the conclusion of 2029 with the club.
Petrus, the youngest among the trio, has represented the Australian Schoolboys while moving through the pathways and is signed until the end of 2028.
"We're extremely pleased to secure Saxon, Ryda and Christopher for the coming years," said Mark O'Neill, Parramatta's general manager of football.
"Having a strong Academy is an important pillar of the broader recruitment and retention strategy. While we continue to identify and attract talent from across the game, developing young players from within the own system remains critical to the long-term success of the Club."
