Stats that Matter: Round 18 v Knights

Nicho Hynes played a blinder in our 48-4 win over the Knights on Saturday night, converting a perfect 8/8 goals, scoring a try and assisting two more.

He was on the field for the full 80 minutes and had the most run metres for either side (226).

Jahrome Hughes was listed as one of the most underrated players in the comp during the week and he certainly doesn't get as much recognition as we think he deserves, but we rate him highly. He assisted two tries and scored one of his own before he was rested after a calf knock.

Justin Olam and George Jennings both grabbed doubles - George in his 50th NRL game.

Felise Kaufusi made the most tackles for Melbourne (34), backing up after Origin III to play the full 80.

Storm completed 34/45 sets, made 10 line breaks and 33 tackle breaks.

Our 14th consecutive win secured our place in the finals.
