Thanks for the upload. I was on the hill at this game. Great night in a bleak year for a Parramatta fan. Can I also add how great the British commentators are
I was 15 and sitting in front of a private box full of retirement age wigan fans . Mostly couples. I remember getting on brilliantly with them and I distinctly remember the respect and admiration for Brett Kenny they had. I was a Wests Magpies fan and I went with mymate and his old man who were Parramatta fans. We lived in the Parramatta area and iwas at the opening of this ground , PARRAMATTA STADIUM in 1886 which a lady opened officially. The Queen. Yes she was there. I was 10 years old at the time and I was a proud Irish Catholic Australian who wanted a republic and still do. I had nothing against her majesty although I could have no problem with her family being given a last cigarette. Anyway Parramatta won . And that stadium has been demolished in favour of the new one which is only a few years old. Long live Rugby league.

One of the few highlights of that year for Parra.
I was at this game. Eels were so bad in the early to mid 90’s. This was definitely a highlight.
Thanks Shaun.
92 was a Broncos year, 1st title with the Steve Renouf try against St George.
Thanks
Imagine if they played Parramatta in early 80s , it would have been a cricket score lol
haha EELS we were bad in 1992 cam second last i remember this haha GO the MIGHTY EELS
Wasn't there sprint/foot race between the 2 of the players at half time
Before the game, Parramatta's Lee Oudenryn beat Lions winger and reputed fastest player in the game Martin Offiah in a 100 metre match race.
Came to put Parramatta in their place! Back in the pub pommies, where the amateurs belong!
Brett kenny was man of the match?
The pommie commentators could teach a thing or two to some of todays commentators, they call a good game !!
Gee the commentators didn`t sound like Rabbs, Sterlo or Fatty 🤔🤔!!!
Eastwood, Hulme, Powell,etc. Reilly had his favourites. Overrated as a coach IMO.
