Melbourne made up for finishing as runners-up last year by winning this year's NRL Grand Final courtesy of a crushing 34-8 win over Manly.

In front of a crowd of more than 80,000 in Sydney, the Storm ran in seven tries with new Warrington signing Matt King among the scorers.

Anthony Quinn and Greg Inglis each scored a brace, with Michael Crocker and Clint Newton also going over.

Steve Matai and Warrington-bound Chris Hicks scored Manly's two tries.
