It’s just the sixth time in Storm history they have blown a 14-point lead and did not just blow it, they detonated it after losing to the Dolphins 42-22.

Craig Bellamy’s men conceded 40 straight points as the Dolphins ran in seven tries before eventually winning the game.

What happened next has never happened in Storm history as it was second versus 14th on the ladder, but the premiership favourites were completely dominated after the opening tries.

It was an incredible turnaround that nobody saw coming based on the opening 20 minutes and their respective seasons to that point.

The Dolphins started the season 0-4 but they have now won three on the trot to surge into 10th on the live ladder.

In other results, the Bulldogs thrashed Rabbihtos 32-0 last night.

Today's game will see the Warriors facing the Broncos at 7.30pm and the Raiders taking the Titans at 4pm tomorrow.
