The Storm situation is diabolical at the moment and showing no signs of improvement. It is also very real without a quick solution.

The edges are a mess. The superstars aren’t playing well, particularly Cameron Munster. Second tier players are underperforming. The edge defence is diabolical. And now Jahrome Hughes is out.

This is a prime situation for the Dolphins to really sink the slipper into the Storm.

The Dolphins won the last clash 42-22.

They are 28-20 ATS at night while they have covered 17 of 28 off scoring 18 or fewer.

The Storm win rate drops 16 percentage points when Hughes is out. They are 4-12 ATS interstate while they are 2-7 ATS off conceding 26 or more. The Storm are 6-10 ATS off scoring 14 or fewer.

Chips in the Dolphins.

Melbourne’s biggest concern right now is how bad their edge defence is. It is completely disjointed. It has seen Tallis Duncan score three tries last week as well as Marata Niukore, Liam Martin, Luke Garner, Heilum Luki and Jordan Riki twice from the right backrow position. There won’t be a better tryscoring bet this week.
