The last time these two teams met the Broncos at home were belted by the Storm 4-40. Previously, in earlier years and most recent form, 47 matches played between the Broncos and the Storm favour the Storm winning 33, all other statistics indicate the Storm should win this quite comfortably.
Melbourne Storm for the win.
If we had to pick a line?
