Steve Edge’s Message to Mitchell Moses on His Captaincy Appointment**
Dear Mitchell,
I want to extend my heartfelt congratulations on being named the captain of the Parramatta Eels. It’s an honor that comes with great responsibility, and I have no doubt that you are the right man to lead this team forward.
Having captained this great club myself, I understand the weight of expectation that comes with wearing the armband. The Eels are a proud club with a passionate fan base, and leadership isn’t just about what happens on the field—it’s about setting the standard in everything you do, both in training and in the way you carry yourself off the field. From what I’ve seen in your career so far, you’ve developed into a leader who can inspire those around you. Your commitment, passion, and competitive nature make you a natural choice for this role.
One of the biggest challenges of being captain is balancing your own game with the responsibility of lifting your teammates. You’ve already been a vocal presence in the squad, guiding the team with your vision and playmaking skills. Now, as captain, your leadership will be even more crucial in driving the Eels forward. Lean on your experience, trust in the players around you, and never be afraid to lead by example.
You’ve seen firsthand how close this team has come to premiership success in recent years. I truly believe that with your leadership and the talent in this squad, the Eels can achieve something special. Stay focused, stay hungry, and never forget the passion that makes this club great.
The Parramatta faithful will be behind you every step of the way. Wear that captain’s badge with pride, and know that you have the full support of the club’s legends, fans, and everyone who has ever worn the blue and gold.
Congratulations again, Mitchell. Lead well, and bring this team to where it belongs—at the top.
Best regards,
**Steve Edge**
Parramatta Eels Premiership Captain
