Round 12 starts with a Storm outfit looking to make up for a disappointing loss to the Cowboys while Manly will have to find improvement without Turbo Tom
MELBOURNE STORM VS MANLY SEA EAGLES – THURSDAY MAY 26, 7:50PM, SUNCORP STADIUM
Coach Craig Bellamy’s biggest concern after the loss in Townsville was that the Cowboys had out-competed his men – something that rarely happens to the Storm and certainly won’t happen again on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Manly’s run of four losses in five games – including a Magic Round hammering from Brisbane – has been compounded by a shoulder injury slated to keep Tom Trbojevic out for the rest of 2022. The Sea Eagles were gutsy and unlucky in a 22-20 loss to Parramatta last week, running out of steam amid some tough calls.
Past Matchups
The Storm are on a five-match winning streak against the Sea Eagles, winning 28-18 in Round 21 at Suncorp Stadium last year before carving out an emphatic 40-12 victory during the first week of the finals.
