Bullied, bashed and out muscled. Storm slump to fourth straight loss. Can Melbourne rediscover that winning feeling?

When was the last time you have seen a Melbourne Storm completely man handled by a more physical opposition? Hardly never, if not, ever right? After running roughshod over the Warriors with 17 straight wins, back at AAMI Park, many pundits anticipate that streak would extend to 18. This current New Zealand team put that to bed with a dominant display over Melbourne, attacking with their defence, bashing the Storm, dishing out hits that can only be described as brutal. The Storm were devoid of answers. Melbourne struggling to match the Warriors physicality and were unable to win the ruck, seeing the Storm struggle to get outside of their own half and pressure New Zealand. A fourth straight loss, the first time since 2022 and Coach Craig Bellamy if he didn't already, now has quite the task on his hands to turn this situation around - and it doesn't get any easier with the Storm travelling to the nation's capital to take on a rejuventated Raiders team, who have the wood on Melbourne. Stormy Daniel reviews and shares his thoughts on the current predicament Storm are facing, covers off on Pathways, Storm news, your listener questions and TLT, team list Tuesday. Who's in, who's out for the desperate clash with the Green Machine.
