The Storm juggernaut just keeps rolling on as Craig Bellamy’s side win a 22nd straight game played at Suncorp Stadium.

It was a contest for the first 20 minutes, but once they got a bit of momentum they went right on with the job with Brandon Smith bagging a double. And let’s not forget this is a team without Cameron Munster, Ryan Papenhuyzen, Harry Grant, Kenny Bromwich and Christian Welch.

But maybe the big news out of the night is a knee injury to Brisbane’s best player Payne Haas, who is almost certain to miss the State of Origin series opener for NSW. It’s all coming a bit apart for Brad Fittler, who lost Victor Radley and Angus Crichton to suspension last week.

Can’t say the same for Craig Bellamy’s premiers, who march on. And they’ll have a quick trip back to Sunshine Coast Stadium to celebrate with Melbourne in lockdown after another COVID outbreak.
