Round 8 of the Junior Reps arrives with some major ladder implications to unfold for the Parramatta Eels across the four pathways. Each grade recorded an impressive win last week and now have the chance to consolidate their positions inside the Top 8 with the finals looming.

The Tarsha Gale have drawn by far the most critical match-up as they prepare to take down the undefeated Roosters Indigenous Academy. The Lisa Fiaola also face a highly seeded opponent but the situations are reversed as it is the Central Coast Roosters who are faced with the undefeated Eels. For the boys, their opponents are both towards the opposite end of the ladder with both Central Coast squads having a solitary win to their names.
