Storm's big guns take down Raiders in Wagga Wagga
« on: April 09, 2022, 04:57:27 PM »

The Storm's big four of Harry Grant, Cameron Munster, Jahrome Hughes and Ryan Papenhuyzen were on song in a 30-16 win over Canberra in Wagga Wagga on Saturday afternoon.


Grant and Papenhuyzen bagged first-half tries while Hughes grabbed a double and Munster set two up as the Storm made it four wins from five to start the season.  
Determined to make amends for a poor showing against Manly last week, the Raiders started strongly and led 2-0 through a penalty goal to Brad Schneider in the sixth minute after Cameron Munster was pinged for a high tackle.


Melbourne hit back in the 14th minute when Grant exploded out of dummy half and powered over the top of Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad to grab the game's first try.


A sustained run of possession for the Storm led to a second try in the 20th minute when Hughes danced around a couple of Raiders defenders from close range to make it 12-2.


Three minutes later the Storm machine clicked into gear again as Munster broke into the back field and found Ryan Papenhuyzen in support and the fullback raced away to grab his seventh try of the year.
