This kicking will lose them the game! Why not replace him when you have someone as good as Munster on the field?

This weekend’s finals have been underwhelming. Last night was just a weird game... would’ve been a good regular season fixture but didn’t seem like a finals match. Tonight has exposed the Eels (and further shown how far off the Broncos really are!)

Yeah, I don't think either Roosters or Raiders should be worried by any of these 4 in current form. The Raiders vs Storm game is the only game that's looked like a final.

80th min TRY STORM to Nelson Asofa Solomona. Olam nearly scored, but Brown produced a classic try saver. Why on earth players gesture to opposition supporters... in this case to "shush"... I don't know. Converted.

Melbourne Storm 32 defeated Parramatta Eels 32-0

FULL TIME

Storm blitz ends Parramatta's finals campaign

Parramatta's season is over, crashing back to reality as the Melbourne Storm ran riot at a wet and miserable Melbourne Park to seal a 32-0 victory on Saturday night.
