The Pap is back and the Storm are set to soar against an old rival on an old stomping ground.
Best Bet
An old rivalry resumes at Brookvale this week when the Storm pay a visit.
Melbourne should benefit from the return of Ryan Papenhuyzen but have lost Felise Kaufusi with Cameron Munster highly unlikely. Rep weekend has cost Manly Josh Aloiai.
The Storm have certainly dominated the Sea Eagles in recent years with Melbourne winning and covering six straight with all six wins being by double digits and four of those coming by 20-plus.
The Storm cover at 65% on the road so being away from home is of no concern. They are 18-8 ATS when a double digit favourite away from AAMI – a line this most likely gets to – while they are 19-8 ATS on the road off scoring 32 or more.
The Sea Eagles have covered just five of 15 at Brookvale and just three of 10 as an underdog.
It would be stunning if Melbourne didn’t tear Manly to shreds.

Same Game Multi
The over is 13-2 when Manly play at night at Brookvale and has hit in 11 of 12 Storm games.
Dean Ieremia comes off a double against the Broncos.
Jahrome Hughes has nine tries in 12 games and also had a double against the Broncos.
Value Bet
Bruising Fijian prop Tui Kamikamica scored in his last outing against Brisbane and the Storm love going to him on the opposition line. He has seven tries in 60 games so he can find his way across. He is huge overs this week. Manly have conceded to a forward in four straight games.
