The Sharks and Storm met on three occasions last season, twice with silverware on the line.
The Sharks will first meet the Storm in Round 6, as the defending Premiers travel to AAMI Park to play Melbourne on Sunday, April 9, at 4.00pm.
Yet to record a success at AAMI Park after the Storm’s move to the rectangular stadium in 2010, the Sharks will be out to overturn an underwhelming record South of the New South Wales border.
