Nawaqanitawase scores four as Roosters beat Storms 40-10

Mark Nawaqanitawase scored four tries to assist the Roosters in demolishing the Melbourne Storm 40-10 in the NRL last night.

The Storm were looking to move to the top of the ladder, while the Roosters were out to solidify their spot in eighth place with a rare win at AAMI Park.

It was supposed to be a special night for Storm coach Craig Bellamy, who became just the fourth man to coach 600 premiership games - but the Roosters spoiled the party as the visitors blitzed their hosts with a remarkable turnaround in the second half for a 40-10 win.

Other tries for the Roosters came from Siua Wong, Robert Toia, and James Tedesco.

The Storm's points came from a try each to Shawn Blore and Grant Anderson.

In other results, the Eels edged the Warriors 26-22 and the Bulldogs beat the Panthers 28-4.

Looking at the matches today, the Raiders will take on the Wests Tigers at 5pm, the Dragons will face the Sea Eagles at 7.30pm, and the Cowboys will meet the Broncos at 9.35pm.
