Mitchell Moses

Under the lights at Bankwest Stadium, Mitchell Moses stands behind a scrum, left boot poised, and in that moment the entire Parramatta Eels attack holds its breath. The kick that follows — booming, spiralling, landing on a five-cent piece inside the opposition twenty — is the signature of one of the most talented halfbacks in the NRL. Moses is the chief playmaker, the conductor, the man who controls the tempo of a match the way a pilot controls altitude. His creative running game adds another dimension, and his performances in guiding Parramatta to the 2022 grand final cemented a reputation that had been building for years. He is the heartbeat of the Eels’ attack, and without him, the rhythm falls apart.

Career Statistics

Player Profile

Two hundred games and 55 tries tell the story of a halfback who has grown from a prodigious young talent at the Tigers into the complete playmaker the Eels built their attack around. Moses’ left-foot kicking game remains among the best in the competition, and his maturity in controlling the big moments separates him from the pack. In 2026, he continues to orchestrate from the number seven jersey, the player Parramatta’s faithful trust to steer the ship.
