Melbourne Storm vs Sydney Roosters Preview

Week 2 of the NRL Finals kicks off in Melbourne on Friday night with an interesting clash between the Storm and the Roosters.

Two weeks ago, I thought that the Storm actually played themselves into serious Premiership contention by continuing that incredible run of form against the Broncos at Suncorp Stadium.

That was immediately forgotten, however, when they lost to the exact same club only a week later and were completely starved of points.

Another cruel injury to Ryan Papenhyzen compounded that loss, with the star fullback now facing yet another lengthy spell on the sidelines.

The Roosters have been a greatly improved side throughout the last six weeks or so and won through to this point of the season with a thrilling single-point win over the Sharks last week.

All things considered; I am actually of the opinion that the Roosters might have played their Grand Final to win through to this.

The Storm have done it without Papenhuyzen for most of the year, and while his injury is very disappointing, he is a little less vital to their make-up than perhaps he would have been this time last year.

I’m therefore expecting the Storm to bounce back in a big way, and that’s where I’m looking for a tip!
