Storm fullback Ryan Papenhuyzen.

A heavyweight Eels-Storm duel that will have implications for the hotly-contested minor premiership race kicks off Round 15 of the Telstra Premiership.

Melbourne are a lone point behind first-placed Penrith, waiting to overtake them if they slip up with six games left. 

Parramatta must win if they want to stay in the contest for the JJ Giltinan Shield - after losing to St George Illawarra last week they're now three points off the pace.

Having won nine straight, the Panthers can make the calculations irrelevant if they keep extending the streak, but Friday's battle with a Cronulla team that's won four of its past five won't be easy.

Other highlights of the round include top-eight aspirants South Sydney and Manly colliding and the Wests Tigers taking on the injury-decimated Roosters on a bumper Saturday.
