Melbourne Storm vs. Parramatta Eels



Here is one game that will have no effect on the ladder.
Third placed Melbourne take on cellar-dwelling Parramatta and with the Storm having won their past three by 64, 18 and 13 against Canberra (away), Souths (home) and last week, Newcastle (away), there’s every chance another big score-line is on the way here.
Melbourne have been back to their best in these games, displaying attacking brilliance whilst out the same time, being able to tough it out as why the case against Newcastle.
They’ll dominate Parramatta across the park.
Parramatta has won one of their last twelve games, that win happening over West Tigers in round 22.
They were competitive again last week when travelling to Brisbane to take on the Broncos and despite losing 22 – 12, never gave up trying.
Surprisingly, since 2008, Parramatta hold a 4-3 winning record over the Storm and did win the last encounter between the two 16 – 10 in round 20 last year – the same week they announced then coach Steve Kearney, would be axed for Ricky Stuart this year.
It would be, without question, the biggest upset of the year if Parramatta were to win here and whilst the Storm’s biggest win over Parramatta since 2007 has been only by 12 points, they should easily better that mark here.
