The Tip Sheet – 2026 Ep 5: The Devil's In The Emails; Eels, Lomax Make Opening Claims

A media blitz today has seen some startling developments in the Parramatta Eels vs Zac Lomax saga as Melbourne CEO Matt Tripp looked to get ahead of incoming bombshell news surrounding subpoenaed emails in a bold interview with the Herald Sun. The Tip Sheet looks at Tripp's sensational claims and stack it up against the opening arguments put forth by the Eels via Arthur Moses as well as the counterpoints laid down by the Lomax camp. The boys take a very quick peek at the first Team List Tuesday of the season with the Junior Reps kicking off this weekend...but save the good stuff for a special preview podcast that will feature Steve Georgallis and AJ Lucantonio! We get our first NRL action of the year as well with the Bulldogs, Cowboys, Dragons and Knights naming their trials squads ahead of their trip to Las Vegas. Who's in, who's out and what can we gleam from the four playing lists?
