Parramatta outside back Ryan Morgan has revealed that the constant off-field dramas at the club has brought the team closer together.

“If anything came out, we were just backing each other, and that really helped us and it is showing on the field that we are working hard for each other, especially in ‘D’,” Morgan said.

“We have been pretty competitive the last couple of months, it is just the last couple of games we have learnt how to close them out.

“We have been unlucky the last couple of weeks before that.”

The Eels play the Bulldogs on Friday night.
