Tom Trbojevic may be the form player of the NRL right now, but he concedes Manly must go to a new level to compete with Melbourne on Saturday night.

Trbojevic transferred his scintillating form for NSW into a brilliant 284-metre, one-try performance in a triumphant return for Manly on Sunday.

The victory helped keep his undefeated streak this season alive, with neither NSW or Manly dropping any of the eight games he has played in so far this year.

That record is under threat this weekend, however, as there is no more formidable task than taking on the Storm in Melbourne - especially after coach Craig Bellamy gave almost all of his Origin stars last weekend off.
