The Melbourne Storm are currently in a strong position to secure another top-four finish in the NRL.
However, they cannot afford to underestimate their upcoming game against the Gold Coast Titans, as the Titans have proven to be capable of scoring plenty of points.
In their previous encounter in Round 3, the Titans managed to defeat the Storm with a close score of 38-34 in a high-scoring game.
This result serves as a reminder to the Storm that they cannot allow any complacency to creep into their preparations for this game.
The Titans started their last match against the Penrith Panthers with a strong start, scoring in the third minute.
However, they then conceded four tries and ultimately lost the game.
This inconsistency in their performance is something that the Storm will be looking to exploit.
If the Titans can cause an upset and defeat the Storm in Melbourne, it will be a significant achievement for them.
Additionally, if they can follow this up with a win against the Bulldogs in their final game of the season, they will finish with 10 wins - four more than their previous season.
This will provide them with a positive foundation for the arrival of Des Hasler as their new coach.
Overall, the Storm cannot afford to take this game lightly.
The Titans have shown that they have the ability to compete and score points against strong teams.
It will be a crucial game for both teams as they aim to finish the season on a high note.
