Re: Round 3 - Storm vs Cowboys

Are you implying Kaufusi and Kenny aren’t in our best 17 when fit? 2 International back rowers who were integral to our premiership? Wow

The fact that you put the words “Hoffman” and “best 17” in the same sentence is concerning!

Re: Rd 2 vs Wests Tigers

Billy Slater has one off game and people want to chop the greatest fullback the game has seen? The MOTM from last years GF? This forum has lost the plot Let’s make this crystal clear, as long as they are fit these 3 spine positions are locked down 1. Slater 6. Munster 7. 9. Smith (c) Only the 7 has ...

Re: Rd 2 vs Wests Tigers

I’m not sold on Croft either like so many on here, I think he will be a great player but he could use some more time in the QLD cup getting used to the grind against men, I thought Jacks was superb last week and even Bellamy stated in pre season that he was a huge chance of being the starting half o...

Re: Rd 2 vs Wests Tigers

Deserved loss, we were pathetic. Good on you tigers that’s how to play footy, toughness and heart, we showed neither tonight, boys need to have a hard look at themselves.

Re: Rd 2 vs Wests Tigers

That might have been the worst effort we’ve put in under Bellamy, I don’t mean worst we’ve played I mean effort, everyone is walking, no urgency, forcing ridiculous passes, trying to score easy tries and ducking the hard work, these boys honestly believe they just had to take the field tonight to wi...

Re: Round 1 - Bulldogs vs Storm

Hoffman also made a few handling errors and gave away a schoolboy penalty for not using his foot to play the ball, the guy also stopped any quality ball getting out to Scott and Addo-Carr, as he as always done he just gets in the way and slows us down, he used to atleast occasionally punch holes on ...

Re: Round 1 - Bulldogs vs Storm

Bit of a strange game, there weren’t too many average players out there, they were either sublime (Munster, Bromwich, NAS, JAC) or they were awful (Hoffman, Croft, Chambers, Kaufusi) I was pleasantly surprised by Jacks and can see why Bellamy was considering him to Croft all off season, he is a rock...

Re: The race to be our half back is on

I think based off his efforts last year Croft gets the nod but I won’t be totally disappointed if he is eased in, I like what I saw from Riley Jacks, we don’t need a dominant #7 as I believe Smith and Slater and to a lesser extent Munster will be the masterminds behind our attack in 2018, I think ou...

Re: Prelim Final: Storm v Broncos

That's a strange one Sally as the GF is on Saturday, if he is not required for Friday surely he can rejoin the Falcons for the big dance?

Re: Round 24 - Knights vs Storm

Munster was awful, worst game in storm colours. Was happy with Croft, Bromwich boys and Finucane. Congratulations on the Minor Premiership boys, big accomplishment.

Re: Round 24 - Knights vs Storm

Textbook example of us showing a team no respect, we are playing like we just need to go through the motions to win, been ugly so far hopefully the 2nd half we show them what we can really do. Poor attitudes from some guys out there who look like they would rather be somewhere else, fire up lads!!

Re: Round 21: vs Manly - Sunday 30 July, 2:00pm

Strange half, we have been so dominant but have made some poor errors in the red zone, should be up by a lot more than 6, doesn't really feel comfortable at all Manly are a team that can turn it on from no where, we really need to put them away, first try in the second half is crucial. Smith playing...

Re: Storm V Roosters

Hughes was phenomenal might I add, really really really like what I saw from him, I'd find a place in the backline for him next week

Re: Storm V Roosters

That loss is on Bellamy, to take Brandan Smith off for Griffin in the last 10 was moronic!! Proud of the kids such a great effort, the future looks bright!
