At 0-6, things looked so bleak for the Parramatta Eels that there was talk of wholesale changes, senior players facing the axe and a head coach fighting for his job.
Fast forward just two weeks and with two wins under their belt, things look a lot rosier for the Eels. Now, they sit just four points behind the 8th-placed Sydney Roosters.
With that said, could they actually play finals footy in 2018?
