Week 14 - NRL Telstra Premiership 2011

The History: Played 21; Storm 11, Roosters 10. The Roosters have a decent record against the Storm and actually inflicted the Storm’s second-largest home defeat (38-6) in the last match between the clubs in Melbourne last year, the only match at this venue between the teams. (The Storm did win the previous three matches beforehand though.) The Roosters are the only team this year that haven’t won an away game.

Conclusion: If the Roosters are entertaining thoughts of making another dazzling run through to a grand final then this is a must-win game. They should be desperate – and just good enough through their experience in the halves – to engineer an upset. But the Storm will not let go lightly. There is more pride in this band than in most sides and if they get a sniff, they will seize it.
