Warriors Suffer Humiliating Anzac Day Thrashing To Melbourne Storm

On a day that remembers the past the Warriors failed to heed lessons of recent history in suffering a demoralising and largely self-inflicted Anzac Day thrashing to Melbourne Storm.

After an emotional pre-match schedule featuring stirring renditions of the New Zealand and Australian national anthems and The Ode and Last Post performed under a blackout before a 21,233-strong AAMI park crowd, the Warriors conceded eight tries and their third highest total in their 21-year-history without scoring a point in reply.

"We were completely dominated," said coach Andrew McFadden.

"It was a big occasion and we had everything to play for. It was a big game, we always knew that, we just didn't turn up physically."

Storm 42 (Tohu Harris, Tim Glasby, Jesse Bromwich, Marika Koroibete, Cameron Munster, Cooper Cronk, Suliasi Vunivalu 2 tries, Cameron Smith five cons)
