Jason Ryles' Eels contract reportedly has performance clause as extension talks begin

Parramatta coach Jason Ryles' contract reportedly contains a performance-based clause, with only the first three years of his four-year deal guaranteed.

Despite this, the club has started discussions about extending his contract, with chairman Matthew Beach confirming Parramatta are happy with the job he is doing.
