Dragons secured a crucial 14-8 victory over Storm, marking their first win this NRL season with Klemmer`s debut.

St. George Illawarra Dragons achieved a remarkable 14-8 victory over the Melbourne Storm in Round 4 of the NRL, marking their first win of the season. The match, held at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium, was played under challenging wet conditions, adding an extra layer of intensity to the encounter.

The Dragons, who had been struggling to find form, capitalized on the absence of key Storm players Jahrome Hughes and Nick Meaney, both sidelined due to injuries. Tyran Wishart stepped up to fill Hughes` role, while Grant Anderson shifted to the centers to bolster the Storm`s lineup. The Dragons also showcased their new recruit David Klemmer, who made his debut from the bench, alongside debutant Dylan Egan.

This victory is a significant breakthrough for the Dragons, who have faced difficulties in securing wins this season. The upset against a traditionally strong team like the Storm not only boosts their confidence but also sets a promising tone for the upcoming matches in the NRL. Fans will be eager to see how this momentum carries forward as the season progresses. For more insights and updates, visit NRL News and NRL Live Updates.
