What a great finish we have to Magic Round with the Storm favoured by 5.5 points over the Raiders.

Normally the Storm would be a super bet in this situation but the absence of Harry Grant is a concern. Melbourne have failed to cover their two games without him.

Canberra have been flying but this is no easy task meeting the premiership favourites.

That makes the top play in this one the over.

The over is 7-3 when the Storm play at Suncorp and 5-1 when the Raiders play at the venue.

The over has also hit in eight of the last 10 Storm games.

Most notably though the over hits at 63.3% when a team plays interstate off scoring 40-plus, as the Raiders are.

Expect plenty of points.
