FULL TIME - An Easter Monday thriller and the Tigers built that victory off the first half where they defended bravely.

Around 35 out on the left edge - can Gutherson kick it?

Jahream Bula drops it. Isaiah Papali'i has it in an offside position. Penalty. Eels will shoot for two!

DRAMA!

The Eels risk it going down the left and Morgan Harper spills it near halfway. Big chance coming for the Tigers. Two minutes left.

Junior Tupou breaks a tackle and has a chance to make serious metres on this kick return but has cramps. Tigers over the 40. Three minutes left on the third.

Unsuccessful.

Solomona Faataape pinged for it. Tigers challenge.

Eels 30 out on the last and they go to the air. Shaun Lane taken out of the play and a penalty is blown. They will surely take the 2.

Justin Olam had to make the tackle and he did. They had the numbers on the right if they didn't but he snaps Blaize Talagi.

Another poor kick from Aidan Sezer. It was almost like he wanted to snap a two-point field goal attempt because he stepped back and it was far too long off the boot. The bomb was taken in-goal by Maika Sivo.

Not a great kick on the last from Aidan Sezer and the Eels are working their way into Tigers territory but Junior Paulo comes up with an error. Tigers have it. Eight on the lock. They begin this set deep in their own territory but a nice run on the first play by Junior Tupou.

Now a penalty for the Tigers. Do they take the 2? They will not.

Just as he returns Clinton Gutherson is ruled to have knocked on a bomb. Tigers 10 out.

Lachlan Galvin has returned from his sin bin stint.

The Tigers hang on... Reagan Campbell-Gillard had to pass with an overlap on the right edge. Junior Tupou then rushes it brilliantly to force a late offload and Dylan Brown could force a dropout but mistimes the kick under the pressure from Apisai Koroisau and it is caught inside the in-goal area by the Tigers.

Not long until Lachlan Galvin is back on but a penalty now invites Parramatta into Tigers territory with a final chance to capitalise on the one-man overlap.

Class Apisai Koroisau as he finds touch five out. Calms things down and buys the Tigers time while down to 12.

Nothing comes of the set as Solomona Faataape puts it down on the last.

The Eels try to shift the ball against 12 men but a pass goes forward. Tigers ball 40 out from the Parramatta line.

Kelma Tuilagi has limped off down the tunnel.

The Eels have another chance to go up deep inside Tigers territory. The Eels are ruled to have dropped the ball but a penalty is ruled for a hip drop tackle from Lachlan Galvin in the lead-up on Kelma Tuilagi.

Aidan Sezer chips it on the last but not enough on it and an easy catch for Maika Sivo.

Big chance for the Tigers early in the half as Alex Seyfarth puts Samuela Fainu through a big hole in the middle. Tigers 30 out.

Back underway.

The Tigers are slipping off tackles... the fatigue is showing but they are penalised for offside on the last. With 20 seconds left Parra will level things up.

One final chance for the Eels as they earn a six again. They're 20 out on the second.

Apisai Koroisau almost with a 40-20 but Clinton Gutherson cuts it off.

J'maine Hopgood with an unforced error and the Tigers survive.

Successful challenge. Stefano Utoikamanu dropped the ball. Eels with it 10 out. Surely they score here. They have had 25 tackles in the Tigers' 20 compared to just six for the visitors.

A huge break for the Tigers as the Eels are penalised for a strip. They will challenge.

Viliami Penisini runs it on the last and the Eels turn it over close to the Tigers' line.

Eels making big metres in this set. 40 out on the third.

That set came undone at the end for the Tigers as Lachlan Galvin is tackled on the fifth and Alex Seyfarth takes it upon himself to put in a kick on the last and it spills dead.

Big chance coming here for the Tigers as they earn a six again 40 out.

A huge defensive stand from the Tigers as Ryan Matterson comes up with an error.

Aidan Sezer with a crucial try-saving tackle on Shaun Lane. He's been impressive in defence.

Alex Seyfarth pinged for a high shot on the stepping Dylan Brown.

The Tigers are much-improved defending their line, especially on the edges, but they'll get more tackling practice now after Jahream Bula drops a Joey Lussick kick close to the line.

Dylan Brown makes a break and is just taken down 10 out by John Bateman who now concedes a penalty right in front of the posts. Eels tap.

J'maine Hopgood is now on for Junior Paulo.

Tigers continuing to shoot themselves in the foot as they concede another yardage penalty deep in Eels territory.

Junior Paulo throws the long ball off the scrum but it was never on and spills into touch. Relief for the Tigers.

Apisai Koroisau goes short. Junior Tupou has a clean shot at it after out leaping Sean Russell but drops it.

Six more tackles coming for Parra as Clinton Gutherson forces a dropout.

Charlie Staines again does well to stop Maika Sivo in a one-on-one situation before Kelma Tuilagi drops the kick on the last. Tigers ball.

A few broken tackles from Viliami Penisini and the Eels are already 40 out on the third.

Fonua Pole coughs it up. Eels with another chance starting this set on halfway. Tigers their worst enemy at the moment.

Something may be building for Parramatta but the pass from Joey Lussick puts Ryan Matterson under pressure and he drops it 10 out from the Tigers line.

They get through the set and trap Clint Gutherson close to his try line. Now a penalty marches the Eels up the field.

Clinton Gutherson goes down the very skinny short side, passes to Morgan Harper who puts in a clever kick that rebounds for the Eels centre to score but he is ruled to have been in touch as he regathered the ball. No try. Tigers need to complete a set here.

Chance on the left as Maika Sivo is one-on-one with Charlie Staines but the winger does well to get down low and stop his opposite number.

Now another mistake as the Tigers turn it over once more inside their own half.

Dylan Brown with a regulation kick that finds touch 10 out.

Isaiah Papali'i tries the offload but drops it. Eels ball near halfway.

Joey Lussick kicks from dummy-half, Jahream Bula is across it and then spreads it to Charlie Staines and there is a half-chance but Staines can't get past Maika Sivo.

Tigers to halfway on the set after points. Aidan Sezer puts it into the air, Maika Sivo is under it and Parramatta starts it second set of the game inside its own 20.

A chance for Parramatta as Junior Paulo offloads to Blaize Talagi and he makes a break, passes to Clinton Gutherson who tries to kick it for his outside men but mistimes it and it doesn't get quite the amount of juice as he would have liked and now the Eels give the Tigers a piggy-back out of their own end with back-to-back penalties.

Tigers up to halfway on the last and Lachlan Galvin goes to the air but Clinton Gutherson is under it. Eels start the set on their own 20.

Underway. Tigers with first use of it through Stefano Utoikamanu, who takes the opening hit-up of the game past the 10 and then it's Isaiah Papali'i working it up.
