Game Day Info - Eels v Wests Tigers, Round Eight

The Parramatta Eels take on the Wests Tigers at ANZ Stadium on Sunday 29 April in Round Eight of the NRL Telstra Premiership, thanks to our game day partner ATOM.

The Eels will commemorate ANZAC Day with a special ceremony against the Wests Tigers, uniting this Round to honour the sacrifice of the ANZACs, and past and present servicemen and women.

It is the second time these two sides will face this season, and the Blue & Gold will be looking for revenge after suffering a 30-20 defeat earlier in the season.

After a crushing 44-10 victory last week, this Sunday is a great opportunity to get behind the boys, turn ANZ Stadium Blue & Gold and cheer on the team to another victory this week!

Join us for a great afternoon of Sunday football commemorating ANZAC Day. Click through to purchase tickets.

50-50 Charity Raffle

The 50-50 Charity Raffle will be back this week, raising funds towards Legacy.

50-50 charity raffle tickets will be on sale throughout the precinct at ANZ Stadium from staff and charity volunteers dressed in 50-50 uniforms.

Every ticket sold will be electronically recorded and updated on ticket-seller iPads, on the 50-50 website and on the various screens throughout the stadium, so members and fans can monitor the draw and watch the total prize pool grow in real time.

Visit the 50-50 Charity Raffle volunteers who will be roaming the ANZ Stadium precinct or at their 50-50 booths located at Gates B & K.

The total proceeds of all 50-50 tickets sold at each game go into a prize pool, with 50% of the prize pool going to the lucky winner of the random draw and 50% being donated to the nominated Charity Partner (-10% administration fee from 50-50).
