Craig Bellamy’s Storm face an in-form Canberra Raiders for a sudden-death clash at AAMI Park.
Ricky Stuart’s side have won their last four games, including a 56-10 point rout of the struggling Tigers without key players Jack Wighton and Elliott Whitehead.
The team from the nation’s capital completed a stunning charge to the finals and are one of the form teams of the competition coming into this contest.
