If someone had asked you to pick the winner of this match before the season started, who would you have picked? I would have picked Penrith with little hesitation and on my ratings, I would have had them winning by 10. Well, tonight I only had Penrith winning by 2, so you can see there's been an 8 point change in the ratings from Rd1 to Rd5. Penrith had gone down 2 points and Melbourne up 6 points.
As for last week's form, I don't think Penrith were disgraced in losing to Parra away and as for Melbourne's match, I pretty much disregarded that altogether. I mean, everything Melbourne touched turned to gold against a Broncos side that probably won't play that badly ever again. It was just like a training run for the Storm and I only raised their rating by 2 points after that game. It was never likely to be that easy away from Melbourne.
