Parramatta Eels sign Webb and Maitua

The Pirtek Parramatta Eels have bolstered their depth in the forwards with the double signing of enforcers Carl Webb and Reni Maitua.

Both Webb and Maitua have signed for two years with the Eels, making a formidable forward pack in 2011 with Fuifui Moimoi, Tim Mannah, Nathan Hindmarsh and Justin Poore, while Shane Shackleton will be back from injury.

Webb will be a replacement up front to fill a gap in the club's front row stocks with Nathan Cayless retiring on Saturday night, while Maitua will add some spark to the back row.
