Preview:
The first match at the much anticipated Bankwest Stadium on Easter Monday is a real cracker as the Eels play the Tigers. A sold out crowd of more than 30,000 will be in attendance at the state of the art arena for a clash between two sides who have had a good start to the season after not playing finals a year ago. Each has three wins, with the Eels coming into this one as slight favourites. Brad Arthur has shuffled his interchange bench with Oregon Kaufusi and Ray Stone the new men coming in for Kane Evans and David Gower after their 19-0 loss to the Raiders on Sunday night. Michael Maguire has kept an unchanged side to that which toppled the Broncos. 6 of the past 7 matches between the two clubs have been decided by 1-12 points, and The Wolf expects this one to be no different. Neither side will give much, with the Tigers’ better defence likely to provide the difference. Wests are conceding just 11.8 points per game this season, while Parra is letting in 18.2 points. In a game as close to this, that may well be the difference in a big day for rugby league on Monday afternoon.
