Re: Official thread and signing news
It is often hard to know what is a legit - let’s focus on it post season vs let’s go past Nov 1 and field open offers. I would guess that Paps has a Storm offer that he isn’t entirely happy with and will push hard post Storm season to get something better before Nov 1. We can’t afford to break the b...

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
I think we towel up whoever makes it through.

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
i was ropeable this wasn't a penalty. I hate nothing more from the refs than calling back an illegal play and going "have another try, its all good", wtf. What determines when a ref doesn't penalise a team and lets them have a second dip vs just penalising, seems grey area bias bs. Pushin...

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
Apologies for the repeated posts, just trying to break it up a little and make it easier to read.

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
- Having said that, still can’t get over the strip just before halftime. Harry wrapped his arm right around the ball. Even if the Sharks player just let the ball go, you can’t be anywhere near the ball in that situation. Tackle 4, the Sharks were on their 30m line. Dumb play doesn’t really capture i...

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
- Trent Loiero was so tough in contact all game. Both Loiero and King never look likely to break a single tackle, but they fight their @sses off for every metre they get. - I am critical of Harry at times, but he covers so much ground in attack and defence. He pushed from the centre of the field to ...

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
- The Paps kick was horrible. Even if it cleared the centre, the fullback was there to gobble it up. - Munster grubbered on the third for nobody. It was a shocker. Nothing happening there. - Meaney’s first contact was much better in this game. Putting some oomph into tackles and making his one on on...

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
Some notes after a second watch of the game: - Why do opposition teams continue to kick anywhere near Katoa? He was gobbling up short kickoffs/drop outs and taking bombs to set up tries all night. Not sure why he didn’t pass to Warbrick in the 59th minute though. Looked like a bombed try. - The Warb...

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
Pretty fair summation of where Paps is at mate. I don’t think you would find a single Storm fan that doesn’t admire the hell out of Paps and value what he has and continues to bring to the team. But we also need to acknowledge the reality of a bloke that hasn’t been able to catch a break injury wise...

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
Not sure how it hasn’t been mentioned yet, but 44 Completed Sets out of 46. 95% Completion Rate.
Incredible.

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
As much as the club and fans all love Paps, offering him a big money extension is pure stupidity. I desperately want him to regain his aura and tear games apart, but it appears those days are over.

Re: Finals week 1 vs Sharks
Loved that second half. Munster looked the best he has all year. King is an animal with a huge motor. Jahrome chimed in through the middle nicely without overplaying his hand. Brick continues his purple patch of form. And Eli is simply my favourite player in the NRL. HOME PRELIM! Let’s not waste it ...
