Re: Norrie and Hinchcliffe - Free ride
Another interesting stat that doesn't look good is that it is now 2014 and the youngest player the Storm has fielded overall in the club's history is Mahe Fonua (born 24 December 1992 - now 21 years and 4 months old). Come on Bellyache, get some 18-20 year olds in the team sooner than later or the c...

Lol, I'm pretty sure one time the announcer said that, about two seconds later the Warriors scored.one-eyed wrote:That Storm D rubbish has to go, makes me cringe every time i hear it i think i'm at a basketball game, c'mon Storm get rid of it!

Re: Norrie and Hinchcliffe - Free ride
If Norrie isn't released from his contract at the end of this year (it's meant to expire at the end of 2015), then I seriously don't think this team is going in the right direction. Hinchy is one of the only good ones in defence at the moment, but offers nothing in attack (so being put back on the b...

Re: Rd.8 ANZAC DAY - Melbourne Storm vs NZ Warriors
Well that was ordinary. And it's the last Anzac Day game I go to. Too many *lima lima lima duck* Kiwis being total dicks. I know I am repeating myself week after week, but get rid of Storm D crap. Sooooo...what's everyone doing in September? I agree, this is going to be the last ANZAC Storm vs Warr...

Re: Benji Marshall seeks return to NRL
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-04-23/storm-shape-as-home-for-marshall/5405262 I reckon we still have a hope of getting him, but it would have to only be for the remainder of the year on a bargain basement deal. Just wonder how he would work with a domineering Cooper Cronk in the halves, however Bel...

Re: George Rose Wants A Release
What is it with grown men who can't spend a year away from home. How old is this child again? I would expect something like this from an 18-21 year old rookie, but not a 31 year old veteran who has been in the NRL since 2004. Oh well, I guess he didn't like Jenny "Craig" Bellamy's trainin...

George Rose Wants A Release
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-04-09/rose-wants-out-of-storm-contract/5377346 Absolutely disgraceful, it's not even the sixth round and he wants to walk away. No wonder he didn't play much game time in the first three rounds and now I don't even blame Bellyache for not selecting him anymore. Defini...

A Transitional Phase Now?
The rate the squad is shaping up for the next few years, it is really looking like a transitional period in 2014-15-16. Our squad is simply not up to scratch with other teams any more and the club has paid the price for not recruiting properly and keeping old baggage. Also along with this is the stu...

Re: McLean Report
There is nothing we can do about the outcome for Jordan McLean, all this anger over the NRL is not going to do anything positive. Let's just hope Jordan can cop what he gets for it and move on with his life and not have to be reminded about this tragic incident again after his suspension. One of th...

Re: ROUND 5 vs TITANS
Expect some changes on game day. We can't keep doing what we did last year and having the same old team roll out every week. That is where we struggled, we had no variety in the backs and no one really pushed for spots as Bellyache would remain too loyal. Hard decisions have to be made, and maybe Ro...

Re: Round 4 - Storm Vs Bulldogs
...Harris (surprise packet as a goal kicker and great with the ball in hand), J. Bromwich (my tip for Storm’s Player of the Year this year) and Hampton (this kid’s gonna be a superstar) were the only ones that stood out . Cronk looks absolutely clueless as captain and his kicking game was terrible ...

Re: Round 4 - Storm Vs Bulldogs
I know the Storm were probably not up to it tonight after coming off Monday night, but what they dished up in the last 60 minutes was a complete dogs breakfast and were completely eaten up (pun intended). I was expecting a loss tonight, but to lose by 28 points in a second half capitulation is unacc...

Re: Test captain Cameron Smith chasing deal to make rugby le
Here's a scenario: Cam re-signs with Melbourne until the end of 2016, where he retires after the end of that contract at 33 years old. In 2015 and 2016, Cam is given more of a captain/assistant coaching role to ease him into 2017 as part of a succession plan involving Bellyache retiring from coachin...

Re: Round 1 team
I'm becoming very worried about Ben Roberts possibly filling in for Coops. I haven't seen much of him play at Canterbury and Parramatta in the past, but from everything I've heard about his ability to play the game and his possible inclusion in a crucial playmaking position is starting to become ver...
