THE PREDICTION
Penrith Panthers showed their class with a victory over South Sydney Rabbitohs in a high-quality affair last week. The reigning premiers sealed the minor premiership with that win and they also showed some excellent character to respond to their nilling against Melbourne Storm in their prior contest. New Zealand Warriors now face the daunting task of facing Penrith having suffered a heavy loss to North Queensland Cowboys last time out in what was their fifth defeat in six. The Warriors have produced some woeful efforts on the road this season and this is likely to be no different with the Panthers able to cover the huge -30 handicap.
