Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy stated the unbeaten progress of the team was crucial to measure a balanced progress in the long run.

The Storm opened their 2014 season with one-point win in consecutive matches. They are slated to host Newcastle Knights next Monday night.

Bellamy is happy with the team's performance and stated, "The wins have had every on the edge of their seats, biting their fingernails ... it is a really tight way to start the season."

"The really pleasing thing is we won both games, so to come out on top after the games have been so close ... It's always nice to have early wins on the board, particularly in our situation."

He further said, "We always have a tough period going through Origin with our key position players carrying a huge workload."

"These wins early are certainly really valuable for us."

However, none of the nail-biting win showed perfect performances by the Victorian and the coach is aware of the loopholes to be taken care of.

Bellamy said, "There are quite a few areas of improvement we need to work on both as a team and individuals."

"We really need to improve on just being a little bit more consistent in those periods where we seem a little bit flat."

One good part of the fact is that the younger players are putting some solid performance in the series. In the last match against Panthers on Saturday, all the team members are aged 22 years or younger like Ben Hampton, Tohu Harris, Kenny Bromwich, Young Tonumaipea, Mahe Fonua and Jordan McLean.

Their zeal to stand up against odd pressure was very promising and a positive aspect to the team.

Bellamy said, "I have been really happy, really proud (of them)."

"In different stages when we've gone through bad patches they've continued to turn up and do their jobs in the clutch moments."

"There is still plenty of room for improvement for those guys, they know that and they know it not because the coaches or senior players are telling them, they know that themselves."
