Canterbury have an injury concern with Josh Reynolds. He has been named but has severe back bruising. Former French international Dane Chisholm is his likely replacement if he doesn’t come up. David Klemmer also has a judiciary appointment and looks set to miss two matches. Danny Fualo will come in if Klemmer is suspended. Aiden Tolman needs to pass a concussion test. Chase Stabley comes in for game-winner Kerrod Holland. Parramatta have issue of their own with in-form backrower Manu Ma’u suspended and hooker Nathan Peats injured, as is his backup Cameron King. Ma’u has been replaced by David Gower while Isaac De Gois comes in for Peats.
HistoryCanterbury hold a 75-58-5 all-time advantage over rivals Parramatta and have dominated in recent years with 9 wins in the last 10 meetings. Across that stretch of 10 matches dating back to 2011, the Bulldogs have posted 28-plus on six occasions while the Eels have surpassed 16 just once. All-time at ANZ, the Bulldogs hold a 15-9 advantage. Semi Radradra has six tries in five games against Canterbury while Curtis Rona has five tries in three games against the Eels. Will Hopoate and Tony Williams are ex-Parramatta players.
Canterbury look the bet on Friday night against their great rivals Parramatta. The Bulldogs look more settled in the way they play and on the score of all the injury worries and suspensions it is the Eels who are worse off. Parramatta typically save their worst for ANZ Stadium and are incredibly unreliable at home with the Eels 14-47 (20-41 ATS) away from Parra Stadium since 2012. The Bulldogs have shown some class out wide and with an aggressive and seasoned pack should win the middle.
