The Eels are hanging onto a four-point lead, but the Cowboys are threatening in what’s been a see-sawing affair at Commbank Stadium.
The Cwoboys’ milestone man Scott Drinkwater, who is celebrating his 100th NRL game, has set up the Cowboys’ two opening tries of the game and is “toruting the left edge of Parramatta” according to Fox League analyst Michael Ennis.
But the Eels, despite having twice the errors and missed tackles than the Cowboys, have managed to wrestle back momentum and snatch a 14-10 lead at half time.
