Semi Radradra scores for Paramatta Eels

The Paramatta Eels are lining up to be the NRL’s fairytale story this season.

On the back of three drought‑breaking years of grand final victories, Parramatta players believe this may be their winning season.

And the key to glory lies in Semi Radradra, who scored four tries in last Thursday night’s win over the Brisbane Broncos.

Eels fans believe they can follow the footsteps of the Sharks last year.

The Paramatta Eels, Melbourne Storm, Roosters and Broncos have qualified for the playoffs so far.

It is the top eight teams that qualify for the playoffs and the other qualifiers will be decided after games this week.

The last Round of the NRL will kick at 9.50pm Thursday when the Broncos meet the Cowboys.
