The Melbourne Storm<\/a> have held off a fierce Sydney Roosters<\/a>' side in a well-fought 18-12 victory at Allianz Stadium on Thursday night.\ufeff<\/p>\n

A last-minute try from Xavier Coates saved the Storm from heading into a golden-point battle\ufeff, while all eyes remained on Cameron Munster<\/a> who was sent to the bin for a professional foul.<\/p>\n

A dead ball in-goal by Jahrome Hughes saw the Storm star marched to the bin, with the referee awarding a penalty for his professional foul on Roosters captain James Tedesco<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The kick was appealed by the halfback, who argued he was obstructed from scoring. The referee declined his appeal as Tedesco raced away for a quick tap and was taken down by an offside Munster.<\/p>\n

League legend Brad Fittler<\/a> revealed that Munster should expect to receive a fine for his slow exit after he leisurely walked off the field.<\/p>\n

"That is a breach. You are supposed to jog off when you go to the sin bin… Munster you are getting fined," he told Nine's coverage.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Wide World of Sports' panel post-match, Munster was frustrated with his actions.<\/p>\n

"I was sitting in the shed pretty disappointed. I have got a good run of being sin-binned against the Roosters and it is not ideal," he told Nine's coverage.<\/p>\n

"I thought at the time it was the right idea.\ufeff I thought Teddy could go the length.<\/p>\n

"We want to do the best thing for the team and looking back now, the boys dug deep but we were lucky to get the win."<\/p>\n

Hughes fought off three Roosters defenders to charge over the line and open the scoring.<\/p>\n

A cross-field bomb by Luke Keary<\/a> was fumbled in goal by Melbourne's defence, making room for Michael Jennings to pounce and score.<\/p>\n

Eliesa Kaota left Keary winded with a brutal shot on the halfback as the Storm regained possession. Munster set the backrower up with a kick across the field to score the Storm's second try.<\/p>\n

The Roosters were denied a try after the referee ruled a forward pass, but the Sydney-siders found themselves back on the board not long after, with Joseph Manu going over in the corner.<\/p>\n

An error from the Roosters skipper saw Ryan Papenhuyzen<\/a> slice through Sydney's right-hand \ufeffdefence before a loose play of the ball was dribbled out wide by Harry Grant to Xavier Coates who pushed over to score.<\/p>\n

With a minute left on the clock, a penalty at the expense of Jared Warea-Hargreaves removed all comeback hopes for the Roosters and sealed the win for the Storm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
