Storm go top with routine win

-

The race for the NRL minor premiershi­p looks like going to the wire as the Melbourne Storm went to the top of the table with a 20-4 win over the Parramatta Eels last night. The Storm head the Roosters and Rabbitohs on points differenti­al, although the Roosters can reclaim top spot with a win in Canberra tomorrow. Manly’s final home game of the season resulted in a capitulati­on, as the Titans scored six unanswered tries to storm back from 22-6 down to 42-22 up. The Trbojevic brothers scored late tries — Jake his second, and Tom his third — as the Sea Eagles narrowed the final score to 42-34.
