Parramatta Eels look to keep pace with Penrith as only NRL unbeaten teams
After a month-plus of the Australian NRL campaign, there are just two teams left with unblemished records: Penrith (5-0), which rolled to a 30-10 win Friday morning, and Parramatta, which plays tonight.
Parramatta has not been as dominant as the Panthers to open the season, but the Eels are 4-0, and looking to move up to second in the ladder.
St. George Illawarra comes into the match tonight in great form, with three wins in a row. Not many people expected the Dragons to be this high up the ladder after the first month, but this is a real test: if they can win tonight, St. George Illawarra could be for real.
I don’t see it though, and will go with the Eels, who might be the best team in the league.
