Melbourne Storm vs South Sydney Rabbitohs prediction
Melbourne Storm have always had the better of South Sydney Rabbitohs in this fixture across recent years in Melbourne, but the hosts will need to get the better of a Rabbitohs offense which includes one of the most dangerous try scorers in the NRL so far this season. The visiting side are also coming off the back of a resounding 30-12 win over an admittedly poor Dragons side.
With 114 points conceded by Storm across their last three games, it bodes well for the prospects of Latrell Mitchell in this contest. The Rabbitohs star has already racked up ten NRL tries this season, the second most of any player going into this latest round of matches. Back him to add to that tally here, regardless of the final outcome.
Melbourne Storm vs South Sydney Rabbitohs tip: Latrell Mitchell to score a try anytime
