Forty years on from the 1983 Grand Final win over Manly, the Parramatta Eels will mark this week with a celebration of the Club’s four Premierships.
The Eels won four titles in the 1980s, including back-to-back Grand Final wins over Manly in '82 and '83 to complete a Premiership “three-peat”, an achievement yet to be replicated by another side.
