Melbourne Storm vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Preview

Melbourne Storm will be eager to bounce back after a rare and costly collapse against the Dolphins, where they squandered a 14-point lead to lose 42-22. Despite this setback, the Storm are still one of the league’s top teams, and with Nick Meaney and Lazarus Vaalepu returning, they’ll be aiming to rectify their defensive woes. Meanwhile, South Sydney are reeling from two heavy losses to Cronulla and Canterbury and have reshuffled their lineup, with Latrell Mitchell moving to fullback. The Storm have dominated this matchup historically, winning 10 of the last 12 encounters, including a dominant home record. With Souths struggling in Melbourne, the Storm should be poised to punish them further.
