THE PREDICTION
South Sydney Rabbitohs laid down a marker for the rest of the campaign by nilling fellow top four chasers Parramatta Eels in what was a dominant performance last week. The Rabbitohs have now won six of their last seven and are building nicely towards a tilt at the premiership. They will look to continue their good run and make another statement as they host reigning premiers Penrith Panthers with the visitors licking their wounds after suffering a second loss in three games. Melbourne Storm stunned them in a 0-16 loss last week and with some key men still absent combined with the momentum that the Rabbits are building, the Panthers look set to suffer another loss in this one.
