Parramatta fans have waited 36 years for a taste of the glory of the premiership, and for one devoted supporter, today’s grand finale is a chance to pull out all the stops when it comes to dressing up.

Brad Arthur’s side enters the underdog betting flagship tonight as they take on Ivan Cleary’s Penrith, who has made it to the grand finals for the past three seasons.

So the Eels will definitely need inspiration to cross the line at Accor Stadium, and a fan pulled out all the stops with a biblical tribute to halfback Mitchell Moses ahead of the game.

This Parra fan, all in white with brown sandals and a cross necklace, has laid out her 10 commandments for her team if they want to disrupt the odds and beat the Panthers.

They are…

1. Thou shalt not wear blue without yellow

2. Thou shalt shout so loudly for Parramatta

3. You will play as a team

4. Keep the ball moving in

5. Honor your fans and your families

6. You have to pedal early

7. You Won’t Let Them Break Your Rules

8. You’ll be pedaling 40/10s

9. You will tackle, tackle, tackle

10. You will win

She wasn’t the only Eels fan to dress up at Accor Stadium, with a trio of supporters wearing Mexican wrestling masks – which might make watching the match trickier than usual!

The road to victory is sure to prevent Panthers star Nathan Cleary from having any positive influence on his side. Eel back row Shaun Lane believes Cleary Penrith’s quit will stop.

“They obviously have a good system for protecting their kicker,” Lane said.

“He’s also quite deep and has a boot big enough to stand far from the ruck.

“So it’s hard to get to him unless you’re one hundred percent with your pedaling pressure.

“They clearly have an emphasis on protecting him and putting him in the best possible situation to get a good kick.

‘They often get the ball quickly before the game, often with (fullback) Dylan Edwards, which makes it very difficult to get kick pressure.’
