Brilliant stuff from Harry Grant, the skipper is having a blinder. He was probing around the ruck that set and got that one going toward Xavier Coates down the right edge.
Coates was able to get his arms free and find the No.9 again in support. He carries a few defenders over the line and slams the ball down to give Melbourne some breathing room.
And they help themselves to a little more now, Reimis Smith finishes off a slick play. Fa’alogo and Grant Anderson feature in this effort from the wrong side of halfway to give Smith room to move. He steps back inside a couple of would be defenders and suddenly the Storm are pushing their lead out to 20. Two tries in three minutes.
Make that three in six. Smith again polishes off another long-range raid, Harry Grant in the thick of it once more. If Parramatta could make a tackle, I wouldn’t mind a break.
