Storm Stun Sharks on the Siren with Miracle Play as Hynes’ Face Says It All
Melbourne overcame two Cronulla sin-binnings and a late deficit as Trent Loiero scored on the siren to seal the Storm’s 24-20 win.
- On the siren, Melbourne snatched a 24-20 victory against the Sharks at Shark Park, with Trent Loiero scoring the decisive try after a flick pass from Harry Grant.
- Early sin-bins hampered the Sharks, yet they rallied from a 12-0 deficit to lead 18-12 at halftime following tries from Sione Katoa, Riley Jones, and Billy Burns.
- Siulagi Tuimalatu-Brown was stretchered off during the match, and Addin Fonua-Blake faces scrutiny for a potential hip-drop tackle on Cooper Clarke, while Cameron Munster, Grant, and Sua Fa'alogo sparked Melbourne's comeback.
- Coach Craig Bellamy avoided his worst win-loss ratio since 2002 with the victory, while the result was a 'deflating end' for the Cronulla faithful following a recent loss to Parramatta.
- The Sharks will face the Cowboys next Saturday at Allianz Stadium, with Nicho Hynes, Braydon Trindall, Blayke Brailey, and KL Iro expected to return to the side.
