Monday night’s ANZAC Day clash with the Warriors will again carry added significance with the much-coveted Michael Moore Trophy up for grabs.
The silverware is in honour of Michael Moore, Storm’s inaugural Football Manager, who tragically passed away in 2000 after the Club’s seasoning opening game in Auckland.
Ever since games between Storm and the Warriors have been played in his honour.
