Hayne Train running right on time

7:51 am on 18 July 2010

The Warriors are fourth on the National Rugby League ladder after after posting a fifth straight victory, beating the Melbourne Storm 13-6 in Auckland, while there were also wins to Parramatta and Manly.

Parramatta superstar Jarryd Hayne scored one brilliant try and had a hand in four of his side's others as the Eels came back from 22-0 down to run down Penrith in a CUA Stadium thriller, while Cronulla were awful at home at Toyota Stadium, going down 48-18 to the Sea Eagles.

Hot on the heels of his three-try effort against North Queensland last Monday, it was virtually Hayne 34-Penrith 28 as the champion fullback gave the blue and gold army hope of 2009 happening all over again.

They may not have quite resurrected 2010 yet, but the Eels came back from the dead to equal their best ever comeback, running in six tries after the Panthers had scored the first four.
