The Parammata Eels are set to take on the Penrith Panthers in Round 19 of the National Rugby League (NRL) season at the Go Media Stadium in Auckland.
The Eels were the worst team through the opening 10 rounds of the NRL season, as they were placed last on the ladder with just two wins to their name. However, there has been a slight upturn in their fortune heading into this round as they have taken two wins and as many losses to put them up to 15th on the ladder.
The 2024 NRL Premiers had a horror start to their 2025 campaign as they suffered six losses in their opening eight games. However, since then, they have only suffered defeat on one occasion and they are currently on a four-game winning run and have risen up into sixth on the ladder following a tight 8-6 win over the Bulldogs last time out.
