Parramatta are down but coach Brad Arthur isnt going to count his side out as a possible NRL finals chance.Docked 12 competition points on Saturday for salary-cap breaches, the Eels find themselves near the bottom of the ladder.Their fall from grace comes less than 24 hours after remaining in the top four with a come-from-behind win over the Sydney Roosters.The NRLs decision means Parramatta will recalibrate their season from 12th position with 12 competition points.Its a situation that is tenuous at best, but making the finals is not impossible, even though Parramatta would have to win every game of the remaining eight rounds.Allowing for 28 points being the cut-off to make the final eight, Arthurs team rates as a mathematical chance of getting there with 16 competition points on offer until the end of the home-and-away season.Parramattas run towards an unlikely finals appearance will start against Penrith on Sunday week and, on what Arthur has seen amid the disasters of 2016, he will be the last one to think his players cant perform a rugby league miracle.To say that I cant believe theyre continuing to do it (is wrong), Arthur said after the 22-18 win over the Roosters.Theyre managed to do it week-in and week-out, and weve had quite a few distractions.So theyve just hardened themselves to playing well and playing for each other.The fact that they keep turning up for each other on the tryline - back-rowers and front-rowers defending in the centres - and they just kept turning up.The attitude is great - weve just got to keep working hard.Such has been Parramattas on-field resolve, even NRL boss Todd Greenberg said during Saturdays announcement he had nothing but admiration for Arthur and the Eels players.If Parramatta can make the eight from where they are now ... they thoroughly deserve to be there, he later told Triple M radio.Authentic Nike MLB Jerseys Outlet .

Cheap Nike Baseball Jerseys .ca NBA Power Rankings, ahead of the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs.Parramatta say they have no fears of Corey Norman slipping through their net in the wake of Jarryd Haynes defection to Gold Coast.Hayne signed a two-year NRL deal reportedly worth $2.4 million with the Titans and cited backroom uncertainty resulting from the salary cap scandal as a key factor, although the Eels insisted they simply couldnt match that sort of money.Coach Brad Arthur says there is no chance of the clubs administrative upheaval spoiling talks with off-contract playmaking star Norman and he expects him to remain next year.Coreys committed to the club, were committed to Corey, Arthur said on Thursday.We need to get some clarity around the salary cap.But at the end of the day our offer (to Hayne) couldnt cut it with Gold Coast - its simple.
