Wests by 8

I am a bit worried about iosefa being 18, hopefully it doesn't mean if miller pulls out potter moves farah to 7 ...it's goig to take a while to get over the mental scarring of Tim sheens.

Following the form line Eels have been very good and solid in their two outings. Wests have been abhorent and average. With Hayne due for a big game I think I will tip against my team for the Parra win

When was the last time Parra played at Leichhardt?


ATCH REPORT
Wests Tigers 33 Parramatta 6Wests Tigers inflicted more pain on Parramatta and their increasingly under-pressure coach Brian Smith by demolishing the Eels 33-6 before a record crowd at Leichhardt Oval.
The Tigers were in white-hot form, scoring six tries to one in recording their biggest ever win over the Eels.
The half-five-eighth combination of Scott Prince and Benji Marshall worked brilliantly for the home side, who scored their first try inside the first 60 seconds and went to halftime with a commanding 18-0 lead.
Marshall bewildered the Eels with his prodigious sidestep and scored an important try seconds before the interval.
The second half brought no relief to the visitors, who conceded further tries to winger Luke Covell and Robert Mears and a field goal to Prince before five-eighth Michael Witt scored his team?s only try for the afternoon.
Covell finished with a hat-trick for the Tigers, while fullback Brett Hodgson was again prominent.
Parramatta blew their one chance to get back into the game after halftime when halfback Chris Thorman cut through the defence only to drop the ball over the Tigers? line.
