Match Centre

That will do us from TIO Stadium. An absolute masterclass sees the Cowboys slaughter Parramatta to the tune of 35-4.

Eels drop the dropout (which was short). Townsend picks it up.

Goal line dropout for the Eels. Must score if they're a chance. But their likelihood of scoring is slipping by the second here.

Cowboys controlling the clock well, Chad Townsend boots it over the sideline.

Attendance tonight at TIO is 10,017.

Inside the final 10 minutes here for the Eels. Still a three-possession game here.

Parramatta's final play options really confusing tonight. Tom Dearden plucks out Clinton Gutherson's kick.

Peta Hiku is the man making way.

Must score set you feel for Parra.

Moses going for the same cross kick, need more variety there Mitch.

Tough ask here for Parramatta to get back in this one.

Fourth career hattrick for Feldt, second against Parramatta (Rd 24 2018 - JT's farewell)

PENALTY COWBOYS: Jakob Arthur takes Scott Drinkwater out in the air.

After all of that, it will be a Cowboys feed. Well done by Todd Smith and the officiating crew.

Reed Mahoney is down in back play. Hopefully, for Parramatta he's ok.

PENALTY COWBOYS: Inside the 10m there is the ruling.

That was disastrous from the Eels. Jakob Arthur's pass was worthy of Row Z. They kept it in play, but Dylan Brown taken on the last. Terrible, just terrible.

SET RESTART EELS: Ruck infringment.

It will be NO TRY. PENALTY EELS: Chad Townsend not square at marker.

PENALTY EELS: Leg pull against Coen Hess.

PENALTY EELS: Griffin Neame the guilty man on that occasion with his hand on the ball.

It's going to be one of those nights for Parramatta. You can just tell.

Good opening set for the home side, but Murray Taulagi marks the opening bomb of the contest.

Todd Smith blows time back on and we're back underway for the second 40 minutes here from TIO Stadium.

`Halftime at TIO Stadium in Darwin and North Queensland are up by 15-0 over a scrappy Parramatta side here. Still 40 minutes to play... stay tuned to League Unlimited for all the action.

Poor kick from Moses and Cowboys get a seven tackle set here right before half-time. Sums up a poor first half from the Eels.

Parramatta just seem to be going through the motions here in the opening 40 minutes. Just seem a step or two off the pace and the Cowboys are going through them.

Cowboys complete their set after points.

Good field position for the visitors.

The challenge will be deemed unsuccessful for Parramatta. Todd Smith having himself a good game tonight in the middle.

NORTH QUEENSLAND hang on again. We do have a captain's challenge though claiming Cowboys (more so Heilum Luki) played at the football.

Dylan Brown whacked in a tackle from Kyle Feldt.

Good kick from Jakob Arthur and chase from Shaun Lane and the Cowboys have to knock it dead. Another set of six coming up for the home team.

Tom Dearden trapped in goal and Parramatta will get another set in attack.

Great mark from Valentine Holmes in the out field. Parra going sideways in attack and that last tackle play was no different. Reminds me a lot like the Roosters tonight... we all know what happened then.

Parra really struggling to find some attacking rhythm.

Robson is unable to take it... It's a captain challenge from the Cowboys. Challenge inconclusive

Opening 20 and you have to say ADVANTAGE COWBOYS. Their defence is punishing and causing issues.

Reagan Campbell-Gillard hit in a big tackle by Reuben Cotter!

PENALTY COWBOYS: Tom Dearden was smashed by Bailey Simonsson... unfortunately, Nick Pelgrave called him offside.

SET RESTART COWBOYS: Ruck infringement against the Eels. Another set for the visitors.

Parra get it wrong there, Bailey Simonsson mistimes the ball and it rolls over the dead ball line.

PENALTY EELS: Just as I said that, they concede a penalty coming out of yardage.

Cowboys deserve a wrap for their defence and hard work coming out of yardage. Need to be disciplined here though.

Ruled to have come off the head of Isaiah Papali'i and Scott Drinkwater takes the ball dead. Parra to get another set of 6 here.

PENALTY EELS: Tom Dearden judged to have held on in the tackle.

Cowboys survive the opening onslaught.

Six to go. One on one strip fails for the Cowboys. Eels to get it back.

PENALTY EELS: Cowboys ruled to be inside the 10m. Relieving penalty for the home team.

Both sides get through their opening sets.

Todd Smith is the man in charge this evening and he blows time on. Rugby League returns to the TOP END!

Welcome back to the top end for the nightcap of Super Saturday here on League Unlimited. Parramatta returns as the home side having taken a match to Darwin every season since 2014. These sides have played twice at TIO Stadium with both sides sharing the spoils. Kickoff coming up soon in Darwin.
