Melbourne have maintained their charge for the NRL minor premiership with a classy 26-10 win over the Sydney Roosters at AAMI Park.The victory gives Melbourne the provisional competition lead, although previous front-runners Cronulla have the chance to go two points clear again on Sunday afternoon when they host Newcastle.Melbourne scored two late tries, through Tohu Harris and Kevin Proctor, that boosted the margin but the Storm were pushed for much of the match by the Roosters despite their contrasting ladder positions.The last time the teams met, back in round 14, the Storm delivered the Roosters worst loss of the season with a 46-0 shellacking.But it took the visitors just four minutes to improve on that total with Blake Ferguson taking advantage of a kick ricocheting off Cameron Smith, which the fullback scooped up to score.Melbourne hit back 10 minutes later with Dale Finucane running on to a Smith grubber into the in-goal and it was all square at 6-6.The Storm skipper then used the ploy again, this time with Cooper Cronk taking the spoils for a 14-6 lead.That was the margin until the 64th minute with the defence of both sides holding firm until Cronk found second-rower Proctor on the fly.The Roosters had the last say with centre Shaun Kenny-Dowall able to ground a miracle ball in the dying minutes.Compounding the misery for the Roosters, prop Jared Waerea-Hargreaves limped off midway through the first half with a knee injury and failed to return.Roosters coach Trent Robinson said while Waerea-Hargreaves injury wasnt serious, he wouldnt be available to face Brisbane at Allianz Stadium on Thursday, with only a five-day turnaround.The Roosters also pushed the Sharks last round before going down and Robinson said their lack of polish was the difference between his team and the ladder leaders.There was a lot of effort and we were in the arm wrestle there in that second half but we lacked execution on the critical times in the game, Robinson said.Were sitting in a position that we dont want to be but we dont hold ourselves as a bottom dweller.We feel were a quality team and we want to play that way and I feel weve done that the last couple of weeks but the reason theyre up the top and were down the bottom is critical plays at critical times and we havent done that.Melbourne captain Cameron Smith praised his teams ability to weather the early barrage from the Roosters.The most pleasing thing about our team this year is that whatever teams throw at us early, we seem to be able to take that punishment and come out the other side, he said.The Roosters started with a lot of energy and intent, the way they carried the football but our defence was good and we just had to stick to that.He said the team wouldnt be celebrating their ladder position.We know were in the top two and thats nice, particularly with the finish weve got against some very good sides.Its pleasing to be in the position were in, particularly getting through State of Origin.
