    Parramatta have endured a dismal start to their NRL league season, trounced 52-4 by hosts Melbourne

    Parramatta have endured a dismal start to their NRL league season, trounced 52-4 by hosts Melbourne

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    The Eels were restricted to a completion rate of 61 percent - and had two players sin-binned.

    Coach Jason Ryles says the Storm capitalised on their shortcomings.



    The Eels will have to defy 118 years of history, if they're to win the premiership.

    No club has conceded 50 or more points in a match, and gone on to win the final in the same year.
