The Last Time We Met The Parramatta Eels was in the final round of the regular season in a match where a big score was needed if the Roosters were to claim the 2018 Minor Premiership.
Last Time We Met The Eels
Despite a quiet opening half (two tries to one) in the points department, the Roosters well and truly pushed the flood gates open after the break.
The Roosters outscored the Eels six tries to one in the second half, jumping the Melbourne Storm in the race for the Minor Premiership with Latrell Mitchell's third try of the night and the second last try of the match.
The game was well and truly sealed when James Tedesco went over on the back of some brilliant set-up work.
This Friday night, the Roosters and Eels will battle once again on the ANZ Stadium turf!
