Melbourne’s dominance of Brisbane is as long as it is brutal and that looks set to continue on Thursday night even with the Broncos pushing for a Top 4 spot.

It is impossible to bet this game any way other than Melbourne laying the points.
Craig Bellamy has named an exceptionally strong side and given the Storm’s long history of laying the smack down on the Broncos, they are clearly not easing up despite having nothing to play for.
The Storm have won 17 of the last 18 against the Broncos with 14 of those coming by double digits. They have won 15 of the last 16 at Suncorp including a 50-12 humiliation last year. Since 2008, Melbourne have covered 27 of 36 with a 14-3 cover record in the last 17 matches.
This is as one sided a rivalry as there is in the NRL.
The Storm love this spot too with a 9-3 cover record against Top 4 teams while they are 2-0 ATS off a loss of 30 or more.
Brisbane are 4-10 ATS off scoring 30-plus and 4-7 ATS off conceding 30-plus.
Get all those chips and push them in on Melbourne.
Same Game Multi
Xavier Coates is having a career year with 19 tries in 18 appearances.
Ryan Papenhuyzen has dominated against Brisbane with eight tries in seven matches against the Broncos.
Eliesa Katoa has had an excellent tryscoring season with 11 four pointers and he has scored three in his last three against the Broncos.
Value Bet
Jahrome Hughes makes his long-awaited return for Melbourne, and that spells bad news for the Broncos in more than one way. Hughes has dominated the Broncos, and it has shown in his try-scoring tally with 12 tries in 12 games. Hughes is huge odds to score in a game the Storm are forecast to win by plenty.
