Welcome to Monday Night Football, out at ANZ Stadium where we have the Wests Tigers hosting the Parramatta Eels. Wests have hit the skids after their huge victory over South Sydney, a few weeks ago and sit stone motherless after Manly were victorious yesterday afternoon and will be missing Luke Brooks through injury. It is the opposite for the Eels, coming off a strong defensive display at home against St George and sit in a much more luxurious 13th position and rising quicker than the tv audience for origin. Join us NEXT for kick-off!
