Newcastle Knights vs Parramatta Eels Preview
The Knights and the Eels will do battle in the Hunter on Sunday afternoon.
The Knights boast a good side and have returned several pleasing performances in 2020, but they remain inconsistent and appear to lack the mentality to win a premiership.
I thought that was underlined last week when DCE was sent off for Manly, and they opted to take the two points instead of taking on the line for the third of fourth set in succession.
They got away with the win, but barely.
Parramatta continue to lead the way after another comfortable win in Round 8, this time a 42-4 triumph over the Cowboys.
It’s getting pretty hard to tip against them and I think they’ll just be too good for the Knights.
