Parramatta, NSW — In a major blow to the Parramatta Eels’ 2025 NRL campaign, star halfback Mitchell Moses has been ruled out indefinitely after suffering a suspected ACL tear during last night’s clash against the Brisbane Broncos.
The incident occurred midway through the second half when Moses collapsed awkwardly after attempting a sidestep. He was immediately assisted off the field and did not return to play. Early medical assessments suggest a torn anterior cruciate ligament, an injury that could sideline the playmaker for the remainder of the season.
Club officials are awaiting the results of a full MRI scan, but head coach Brad Arthur expressed grave concern in the post-match press conference.
“It’s heartbreaking, not just for the team, but for Mitch personally,” Arthur said. “He’s the heart and soul of our spine. His leadership, his creativity — we’ll be missing a lot.”
Moses has been in career-best form, recently leading the Eels to several key victories and earning praise as one of the league’s premier playmakers. His absence casts serious doubts over Parramatta’s finals hopes, with fans and teammates alike expressing support and well-wishes on social media.
More details will follow as the club provides an official medical update in the coming days.
