Parramatta will be aiming to draw on the same reserves of resilience and spirit that saw them defeat the Dragons when they host the Cowboys who are looking to bounce back from their Magic Round loss.

Led by a strong individual showing from PNG powerhouse forward Elsie Albert who sparked their second-half comeback with a try that saw her beat five defenders, the Eels were able to back a 12-10 win, but it came at a cost.

Cassey Tohi-Hiku, Rory Owen and Kennedy Cherrington all joined the club's casualty ward, meaning coach Steve Georgallis and his team will need all his side's emerging and experienced players to take it up a notch against North Queensland.

The third-ranked Cowboys started well against the Warriors, but fell away after scoring the opening try of the game and will be looking to reset when they take on the fourth-placed Eels.
