Melbourne have shown Brisbane who is boss, winning their NRL top-four clash 32-20 in an arm-wrestle on Friday night.
The Broncos hadn't won in Melbourne since 2016 but arrived with high hopes of breaking that drought and banking an eighth successive win.
The teams were locked at 16-16 at halftime, with Brisbane winger Corey Oates crossing twice to put his hand up to replace injured Xavier Coates in the Queensland State of Origin line-up.
Storm winger Dean Ieremia then took his turn to shine, collecting his own double in the second half as the home side got back on top.
Both times Melbourne sent the ball wide with centre Justin Olam finding the youngster on the fly.
Melbourne dominated the early exchanges and came up with the first try of the night with Tui Kamikamika running on to a Harry Grant pass and crashing over line.
But the Broncos got their motors started and scored three times in nine minutes to hit the front.
As well as Oates' haul, Maroons flyer Selwyn Cobbo touched down on the other wing.
With skipper Adam Reynolds out with a rib injury, Tyrone Roberts stood up in the No.7 jersey with his kicking and passing game en pointe.
In the Cobbo try he took on hard-hitting Storm centre Justin Olam and then fired a cut-out pass for the 20-year-old to dive across in the corner.
Kotoni Staggs' sideline conversion opened up a 16-6 lead for Brisbane after 28 minutes but they let Melbourne back into the game as halftime closed.
Cobbo spilt a Jahrome Hughes' kick that was pounced on for Cameron Munster to score and then Hughes and fullback Nick Meaney combined before the halfback showed his speed to race to the line to level.
After six tries in the opening stanza they proved harder to come by in the second half with Ieremia coming up with the goods in the 56th and 63rd minutes.
Hughes capped a starring performance with a clever grubberkick into the in-goal which he followed up to put the result out of doubt.
Ezra Mam scored a consolation try with three minutes on the clock after a Billy Walters' break but it was the second-placed Storm's night.
