At 16-2, it seemed like Melbourne were going to roll their way to another victory. All it took was one loose pass from Papenhuyzen to ruin their momentum and the Dolphins made them pay. The Storm's middle third was surprisingly brittle in defence and the halves had a field day. It seemed like anytime the halves had the ball, the Storm were in two minds and completely lost the plot when it came to their tackle technique.
Credit to Katoa, he played his best game in first grade and is really coming on as a player. The forwards did well to wrestle back momentum with Kerr in particular dealing a body blow with that try of his.
Dolphins beginning to show signs of life after it appeared they had been hit with the Bennett curse. Meanwhile, Melbourne suffer another stumble and appear to be dealing with some headaches. Over the years we've come to expect a big response from Melbourne but they have a tough road ahead of them. I'd expect them to beat Souths, but then they have the Raiders, Tigers and Sharks - teams that really push them, especially when they're not high on confidence.
