Big Jim’s tip for 9 August: Melbourne Storm

This is a Friday night blockbuster and with a very average Friday night game in the AFL, this game should get top billing even in Melbourne.

The Storm has had their problems of late but their 68-4 thrashing of Canberra last week has steadied the ship. Souths suffered a shock loss against North Queensland last week but still sit alongside the Roosters at the top of the table. Melbourne will be very hard to beat again in 2013. They are too good, too talented and too experienced and this will see them very tough opponents come final times, so I will tip against my Bunnies tonight as I think the Storm at home will be out to make a definitive statement.
