Storm’s final game may be historic for Vunivalu

The NRL minor premiership goes up for grabs in a Saturday night blockbuster when Melbourne Storm hosts the Cronulla Sharks just one week before the NRL Finals.

NRL.com analyst Matt Elliott says Cooper Cronk has plenty of options from running it himself, play short to a forward or out to Suliasi Vunivalu and Marika Koroibete.

For Vunivalu this will be a record breaking game where he is expected to break Noa Nadruku’s record of most tries scored on his debut season.        

Nadruku scored 22 tries in his debut NRL season in 1993.

Vunivalu has scored 21 tries so far.

The Storm will take on the Sharks at 9.30pm Saturday.

Meanwhile the Broncos will host the Roosters at 9.50 tonight.
