Parramatta Eels vs St. George Illawarra Dragons Preview
The Parramatta Eels will be looking to snap their losing streak when they take on the St George Illawarra Dragons at home this weekend. Despite recent setbacks against the Sea Eagles and Bulldogs, the Eels have shown glimpses of progress, and their fans will be hopeful for a turnaround on their own turf. Coach Jason Ryles—facing his former club—will no doubt have his side fired up as they aim to kickstart a revival in what’s been a tough season.
Meanwhile, the Dragons head into the clash riding high after a stunning upset over the Storm. However, there’s a risk they may underestimate their opponents. If complacency sets in, the Eels could seize the moment and deliver a surprise result, making this a potentially thrilling contest.
