Didn’t see that result coming
Full-time: Parramatta snap Souths’ six-match winning run with a 36-16 victory. Huge upset. Congratulations to Dylan Brown, who was named the inaugural Eric Simms Medal winner. Richly deserved.
Party time for the Eels
76 min: The Eels score a fourth unanswered try, this time to Will Pensini after another superb pass from Moses. Try converted. Eels 36-16
What a try!
73 min: Parramatta open up surely an unassailable 14-point lead with a sensational try to Brown, winning the race to a Moses kick only centimetres inside the dead-ball line. Shades of Michael Jennings in the 2013 grand final. Moses converts. Eels 30-14
Time running out for Souths
68 min: Rabbitohs struggling to string cohesive attack together but too early to write such a formidable attacking side off just yet. Souths are often at their most dangerous when chasing points.
Parra power
58 min: Ilias kicks out on the full again and the Eels capitalise again, Simonsson crossing for his second following a pinpoint Dylan Brown kick. Moses converts. Eels 24-16. Can the visitors go on with it?
Bryce is right!
53 min: Parra make Souths pay for Lachlan Ilias kicking out on the full: Bryce Cartwright crashes over, running a great line off a Moses offload. Moses converts for the Eels to reclaim the lead, 18-16.
Walker’s on!
48 min: Is it Cliffy Lyons or Cody Walker? Sublime ball play from the Rabbitohs pivot puts Campbell Graham over untouched. Mitchell adds the extras to give Souths the lead for the first time. Rabbitohs 16-12
Half the battle
Half-time: Eels 12, Rabbitohs 10. Very hard to pick a winner at this stage; it probably comes down to whether Parramatta can contain the Walker/Mitchell threat or not.
Pretty to watch
37 min: Walker and Mitchell combine for a “South Sydney special” (as Channel Nine commentator Mat Thompson perfectly described it) – the pair’s slick hands putting Johnston over for his second try. Mitchell converts. Eels 12-10
Good news for the Bunnies
24 min: Sele is cleared to return to the field after passing his HIA.
