Parramatta joined the competition in 1947 and have since reached nine grand finals for four premiership victories.

The Eels have had 40 players represent Australia, while 34 Eels have played State of Origin for NSW, and six for Queensland.

In Round 19 of the 2015 NRL Telstra Premiership, we write another chapter. 

The Parramatta Eels are Bound by History… History Bound.
