Episode 37: Injuries, suspension and defensive woes plague Storm's premiership aspirations on the eve of the Finals

Storm fans must feel like they're watching a car crash in slow motion unfold in front of their very eyes with Melbourne's recent fortnight, where form and performance has looked anything but a team who finished in the Top 2 and whom for 27 weeks have been premiership favourites. Stormy Daniel reviews the pricey loss to the Broncos and what has gone wrong on the eve of the finals, with Melbourne's defence vanishing and injuries to star halfback Jahrome Hughes, fullback Ryan Papenhuyzen (concussion) and lengthy suspension to Melbourne's x-factor who many are now calling a liability in Nelson Asofa-Solomona. Can the season be salvaged by winning week 1 and progressing to a preliminary final? What's making Storm news, throwback team list, your listener questions and TLT - team list Tuesday. Who's in? Who's out for Storm's Week 1 Finals clash against the resurgent Bulldogs, who are the best defensive team in the competition this season.
