Paramatman week from hell has taken a turn for the worse and the series center Tom is leaving the club to play in the Opasic Super League.
Several British clubs are chasing the 27-year-old center, where Hal KR is leading.

Defense is his specialty. He wasn’t playing Monday’s 34-4 loss to the Bulldogs and as it turns out, the Canterbury Ellis defense has expanded.
