Melbourne Storm vs Sydney Roosters Preview
Two of, if not THE TWO formed sides in the NRL clash when the Storm host the Roosters in Friday night footy, and I cannot bloody wait.
The Storm’s midseason slump is well and truly a thing of history, and they’ve re-affirmed their premiership credentials first with a win over the Panthers in Round 22, and secondly with a bullish demolition job of fellow top eight club the Broncos in Round 23. They’re flying high and are always an almost impossible task to overcome in Melbourne.
The Roosters have also returned to form in recent weeks, and take their place in this contest following big wins over the Broncos and Cowboys, and after putting 72 points on Wests Tigers last week. Sure, the Tigers aren’t good, but 72 puts against any club in the world’s best competition cannot be ignored.
I don’t have nearly has much between these two as the bookies seem to, and I therefore think that the value lies in backing the Roosters to cover the line as outsiders.
