Parramatta Eels v Melbourne Storm News

When the Parramatta Eels and the Melbourne Storm face off against each other, it tends to be a match up that delivers thanks in part to the different philosophies of the clubs.

Parra are known for the all-out attacking set up they use and for often playing often the cuff whilst the Storm paly an incredibly structured style that is simply monotonous- in a good way.

Stadium(s)

The match will take place at the Western Sydney Stadium, also known as CommBank Stadium, which in my opinion is one of the most impressive medium sized stadiums in world sport.

Built in 2019, the stadium utilises a range of modern methods to help create a great atmosphere and with all of the corporate facilites down one side, which also houses the cameras, it also always looks great on tv.

The stadium sits on the site of the former Parramatta Stadium, where the Eels used to play, but it is a huge upgrade in every aspect.

Nowadays, the stadium features a two-tier bowl that wraps around 3 sides of the stadium, which is all-seater aside from the lower tier behind one set of sticks that is a safe standing area.

The top tier is roughly twice the size of the lower tier and is steeply banked which helps to keep fans close to the action. The final stand is the corporate stand which is a multi-tier stand that features some seating, the stadiums media facilites and numerous level of corporate facilites including boxes.

The stands have large concourse that are open to the element and open out onto the lower tier which makes it easy for fans to keep an eye on the action and also helps natural light come through and into the main stadium bowl.

All in all, the stadium can host around 30,000 fans when full, as it so often is and as it likely will be for the visit of the Storm.

Location

As you will likely expect, the stadium is located in Parramatta, a suburb in Greater Western Sydney, which is of course in the New South Wales city of Sydney.

It is around 15 miles west of the Sydney central business district, or city centre, and is often referred to as the second CBD of Sydney due to the incredible growth it has enjoyed and the skyscrapers that are now found there.

The stadium itself is located in the north-west of the district, right on the border with Westmead and close to a number of different train stations, which makes it easy for fans from across the city to get to.

About

There is always an extra element of interest and intrigue to matches between the big Sydney clubs and an expansion club and that is certainly the case for this one.

The Eels are one of the most historic clubs in Australia after been formed in 1947 whilst the Storm only debuted during the Super League wars in 1997.

Parramatta Eels v Melbourne Storm Teams

In the build up to the big match, the squads for the match are announced well in advance and that makes it easy for fans to read who is and who isn’t selected for the match and the reason for that.

They can then discuss it with fellow fans, friends and family but despite that, the actual team to take to the field can often be different than the team that is announced.

There can be a number of reasons for that including injuries, suspensions, illnesses and even for disciplinary reasons but no matter why a change is made or when it occurs, we will bring the change to you right here on this page.
