Melbourne Storm vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Preview

The Melbourne Storm continued their remarkable season-opening record under Craig Bellamy with a gutsy come-from-behind win over the Tigers and will now return to AAMI Park for the first time since Round 8 last season when they host the South Sydney Rabbitohs on Thursday night.

The Storm overcame a sluggish start to record their 20th consecutive Round 1 victory.

Conversely, the Rabbitohs were disappointing in their season opener against the Broncos, suffering an 11-4 defeat at Suncorp Stadium.

However, they will regain Latrell Mitchell this week, with Alex Johnston shifting back to his favoured position on the wing.

Souths will be looking to defeat the Storm in Melbourne for the first time ever.

Last week’s carnage sees Storm trio Christian Welch, Brandon Smith and George Jennings all missing, however, Origin duo Cameron Munster and Harry Grant are back from their respective suspensions.

Dean Ieremia takes the vacant wing spot while Jesse Bromwich is back at prop.
