The Dyldam Parramatta Eels side to take on the Cronulla Sharks at Pirtek Stadium on Saturday 29 August for their third annual Johnny Mannah Cup has been named by Head Coach Brad Arthur.
Arthur has made two changes to his line up with Blue and Gold skipper Tim Mannah returning to the starting side with Darcy Lussick moving to the bench whilst Joseph Paulo drops off the bench.
The game will be the third annual Johnny Mannah Cup, in honour of the late Johnny Mannah, who was a member of both the Eels and Sharks NRL clubs.
The Eels NRL clash is part of a massive triple-header with the Eels NYC and Wentworthville Magpies NSW Cup sides also in action.
Gates open at 10:30am with the NYC kick off at 10:40am, NSW Cup 12:40pm kick off and NRL kickoff at 3pm.
