The NRL is set to grant both Parramatta and their provisionally suspended officials more time to respond to last month’s salary cap breach notices.

After initially having until today to answer to alleged rorting of the cap, the Eels will now have until next Friday to explain their case, while all five officials will have until Wednesday.

The Eels face losing 12 competition points and a $1 million fine for systemic salary cap rorting totalling $3 million since 2013.
