In what was an out of the ordinary high scoring top four affair, it was four tries a piece in regular time and a penalty goal in Golden Point to send the Storm home as the victors on that occasion.
Josh Morris put in a two try performance for the Tricolours, while Brett Morris and Kyle Flanagan also joined in on the scoring for the Roosters.
Rarely an uneventful battle when these sides go head-to-head, Round 14 is likely to be no different when they meet again this Thursday night.
