A move by Parcell seems to have dropped off everyone's radar recently. I doubt it'll happen but were it to do so there'd certainly be various possible permutations for the close season.

Hasn't Parcell's agent said that he wants to stay with us - maybe that's the reaction the club were looking for when saying they can look at other options.

Glad its come off we need players of this quality in SL. I think this last week of Taupau and his Mrs was a definite tactic to take the heat off of the Merrin situation and get people talking about something else. Played a blinder have the club, and lets be honest everyone saying he wont be committed or anything are talking nonsense. The main thing is regardless of everything Merrin has been quiet throughout the whole process and taken his time to decide and would not come if he wasn't going to give his all with the pressure of marquee money over him. I fully expect to see him named your captain too and really hope he plays 13

PS the tweet showing all the negatives was genius too especially finishing with the Gould tweet haha

Hadn't heard that but definitely good news if so.

Parcell still has one year left on his current deal with Leeds and his agent Clinton Schifcofske told League Weekly that Parcell is going nowhere ahead of 2019."

Parcell and his Mrs are currently having a house built in Aus so I’d expect them to return at the end of this season

Or maybe justing investing money in a property in the buy to let market!!

As a current Penrith supporter you are on the money with your comments on Trent. Was our player of the year in 2016 and our club person of the year in 2017 thanks to his community work particularly in the mental health field. Will be a superb asset for you and I look forward to watching 'Mez' play at Leeds.

Im really impressed by a lot of the comments from Penrith fans on what a good signing we have got in terms of both a player and a person. Looks like the club have done their homework and backed it up with cash which is really encouraging.

Also impressed with the Penrith fans taking the time to share their views and be positive rather than slate a guy who has left.

What would you say is his best position ?.
We look light on front rowers but heavy on back rowers and potential loose Forwards

God no let's not do this.

He clearly looks a 2nd row/13. Let's not add a bit of quality and then play him out of position. If we want quality props let's go out and sign them, not try and wedge people in.

A few people have said we are 2nd row/13 heavy. In numbers maybe but not in quality and on paper Trent is quality.

Yep, play as may as poss in their best positions. If we have to go with a lightweight front row, so be it. Been done before, not always without success.

I'm not suggesting we play him at prop if he isn't a prop. I honestly don't/ didn't know his best position. That's why I asked .

Has to be our loose. We need another metre muncher and we have a decent squad.
