An errant Ray Stone tackle handed the Sharks the keys to victory in an entertaining albeit frustrating game. Sixties and Forty20 launch into the post-mortem as the Eels drop their first game of the 2022 season.

A slow start dominated by defensive struggles marred another contest for the Blue & Gold and the boys try to figure out where it is breaking down for the Eels.

Despite the loss there were still good signs for Parramatta. Mitchell Moses battled through some targeted physical punishment to keep the Eels in the hunt while Dylan Brown threatened to break the line with every other touch. The duo look at what the club can salvage from the loss and just how concerned fans should be as the team falls to 1-1.

While the NRL failed to get the choccies today, it was otherwise a hugely successful Saturday as the entirety of the Junior Representatives and the Jersey Flegg posted victories. Forty20 and Sixties run through the results in rapid fire fashion to finish the show.
