Melbourne Storm Set to Kick Off 14th Consecutive Finals Series at AAMI Park
Move over Sydney and Geelong - the Melbourne Storm, known as the top footy finals team of the 21st century, are gearing up for their 14th-straight finals campaign with a home final showdown at AAMI Park this Saturday.
And let me tell you mate, this is one game you don't want to miss.
According to reports from news.com.au, the Storm will kick off their record-breaking finals streak on Saturday as they take on the Cronulla Sharks in a qualifying final at the iconic AAMI Park.
With no AFL finals games happening in Melbourne this weekend, Captain Harry Grant is hoping to see the stadium filled with a sea of purple before the 4.05pm kickoff.
Grant knows just how crucial this game is for the team, stating, "It's going to be a massive game for us.
It's finals footy, and any team you come up against at this time of year is a threat.
We need to be firing on all cylinders.
Hopefully, we can rally up as many Storm supporters as possible to pack AAMI Park."
Young fans like Olivia, 12, and Aidan, 9, will be in the stands cheering on their beloved Storm alongside their fanatical families.
Olivia, who has been a Storm supporter since she was a mere three years old, is pumped about watching Sua Fa'alogo in action, declaring, "He's just a great player."
So, grab your jerseys, slap on some face paint, and get ready to witness a thrilling display of Rugby League excellence as the Melbourne Storm kick off their finals campaign in style at AAMI Park.
It's bound to be a ripper of a match, so don't miss out, cobber.
