NRLStormRoosters Match Report
The Storm scored two tries in the final 10 minutes through Jahrome Hughes and Paul Momirovski to take a 24-22 lead before Kyle Flanagan, with ice in his veins, landed a 79th minute penalty from wide out to level the scores.
As has been the case in several titanic battles between the two clubs in recent years, Trent Robinson's men had the answers defensively. Minutes later Olam crunched Flanagan in a belter. The ball popped loose and Josh Addo-Carr was the beneficiary. It was shut the gate and 6-all. As Daniel Tupou prepared to catch a cross-field Keary kick, Morris pinned his ears back to wrap around his winger.
A sweeping left to right movement ended with Angus Crichton throwing a cracking ball to Brett Morris who positioned himself to perfection to race in a narrow channel close to the touchline to score his 160th NRL try.The Storm threatened on the Roosters try line again, and again they were repelled with desire and desperation.
