After a shaky start, the Sydney Roosters have scored 101 points across their past two games and are a force to be reckoned with 

The Parramatta Eels are the only side in the NRL who have won each of their games that they have played so far, with five wins from as many matches.

On ten points, they have a game in hand and a one-point advantage on the Newcastle Knights and Penrith Panthers and will be looking to extend that lead on Sunday morning?
