The Melbourne Storm achieved a dominant victory over the Brisbane Broncos, winning 22-2, which placed them at the top of the NRL ladder on Thursday night.
This impressive win was accomplished without notable players, including 2024 Dally M winner Jahrome Hughes and star centre Jack Howarth.
Hughes is dealing with a shoulder injury and is hurrying to regain his fitness ahead of the finals.
In contrast, Howarth faced a groin injury right before the match against the Broncos.
Coach Craig Bellamy provided an update on the team's injury situation, particularly focusing on Hughes, stating, "I don't think we're any wiser than we were last week," regarding the timeline for Hughes' recovery.
