The new Eels board is entertaining the option of moving more games away from Parramatta Stadium, with ANZ Stadium in line to host a greater number of fixtures from 2014.

Eels CEO Ken Edwards sought legal clarification on the club's tenancy at Parramatta Stadium, before the issue of transferring more games to Olympic Park was raised at a meeting of the newly-elected board late last month.

The development has emerged amid the biggest clean-out in the club's 66-year history, which began on Wednesday when Edwards and coach Ricky Stuart told 12 players - including co-captain Reni Maitua - they weren't in the club's plans beyond this season.

Round 19

Fellow co-captain Jarryd Hayne on Thursday slammed the manner in which the news was delivered, accusing the club of putting his teammates "on show" in front of "their peers and staff" at the extraordinary meeting.

Under their current agreement with Parramatta Stadium, which runs until the end of 2015, the Eels are permitted to move four of their 12 games away from their spiritual home.

The deal is yet to be signed off, with both parties currently respecting a Heads of Agreement based on a Memorandum of Understanding that was drawn up last November.

The agreement allows the Eels to transfer further games to ANZ Stadium should their ticket and membership sales forecast a crowd in excess of 20,000.

However, the club must compensate Parramatta Stadium Trust $70,000 for any further fixtures that are moved to Olympic Park.

With Parramatta targeting 20,000 members by the end of 2013, Edwards, the former ANZ Stadium CEO, sought advice about playing more games there from club solicitor Brian Belling - who on Thursday declined to comment - in April.

The club has scheduled three matches - against Canterbury-Bankstown, South Sydney and St George Illawarra - at ANZ Stadium this year.

Edwards on Thursday night said he regarded the Heads of Agreement with Parramatta Stadium as "binding", but vowed: "It will depend on how our membership sales go.

"There is a possibility that we will play more games at ANZ Stadium.

"We've got a new board in place and we're reviewing all those things at the moment.

"We have every intention of honouring our agreement with Parramatta Stadium."

New chairman Steve Sharp vowed that Parramatta Stadium would remain home of the Eels during his successful election campaign last month. He did not return calls.
