Can Big Four deliver on the big stage like Cam, Cooper and co
The 60s introduced us to The Beatles, the 80s brought us The Immortals, and the early 2000s presented The Big Four of the Melbourne Storm.
Now, in 2025, we see a revival of the Big Four with Cameron Munster, Jahrome Hughes, Ryan Papenhuyzen, and Harry Grant aiming to establish their legacy by clinching a grand final victory over Brisbane.
For the talented Munster, this would mark his third championship ring, adding to those he earned in 2017 and 2020. Hughes and Clive Churchill Medal winner Papenhuyzen were also part of the 2020 championship team.
On the other hand, Grant, who was part of last year's runner-up team, has been eager for his first premiership after a loan stint with the Wests Tigers in 2020.
Storm coach Craig Bellamy has rarely had all his top players on the field simultaneously; the preliminary final was just the eighth instance this season that his spine was fully intact.
