Note: Russia won the play-off for third by a single point over Samoa, their celebrations rivaling any seen by premiership winning sides in recent memory!

Second Half:

Bombed try by Parramatta, John Morris drops a Lyon kick with line wide open, Tigers on the backfoot after near perfect first half.

The crowd starts chanting ?Benji! Benji?, willing the Tigers whiz kid to do something special, he has been a fan favourite all day.

TRY: Luke Burt finally gets the Eels on the board with three and a half minutes left after slicing through the defence in his own half and scoring under the posts for a bonus try, he converts and the Eels are back in it.

TIGERS 11-7

TRY: Daniel Fitzhenry runs off Scott Sattler and over under the posts, converted, only a miracle can save the Eels now.
