Two sides, both round one victors, went head-to-head at the Bankwest Stadium in Sydney as the Paramatta Eels took on the Melbourne Storm for the honour of sitting at the top of the table, at least until tomorrow's fixtures are played.
The Storm came into the game as bookies favourites having won the last encounter between the two sides in October, and on the back of four straight competition wins. But the Eels will have been remembering the encounter in August with more fond memories, a game which saw them score fourteen unanswered points in shutting out the eventual Grand Final winners.
The heavens had opened pre-kick off, the conditions levelling the odds.
