Re: Storm to finish 9th in the 2019 Ladder

Most observers last year would have noted that while Storm were nowhere near their best it just showed how bad the rest were. My only disappointed was the way they handled the GF. I wasn't bothered about losing so much as the way Storm lost it! Still its blindsided the Sydney hacks into thinking the...

Storm to finish 9th in the 2019 Ladder

According to that tired old hack Booze Drossfield in today's Telegraph! ::)

Should provide a bit of pre-season motivation help for Bellyache & Smithy! :-D

Re: Round 5 - Tigers vs Storm

The defence is fine it's the lack of consistent attacking nous that is missing, it will come with hard work by the Club and patience by the Fans! Storm are not the only pre season top 4 Team favourites struggling but all should turn it round, by the finish of Origin it will look clearer as to what t...

Re: Cam / Storm vs JT / Cowboys Testimonial

With JT saying he's hoping to get one over on Smithy, I don't think Storm will take this game lightly either. Is there any any live streaming of the match outside of Fox's?

Tickets

For single match's only, what is the best way to get one? Would it be online or getting someone to buy them from the Stadium and how many days before do the unreserved seats go on sale before the match day? Thanks in advance! :)

Re: World Club Challenge

Its very difficult to play the WCC at the end of a season for both NRL & SL Clubs. Prior to the start is a better option, though it does mean the winning Teams usually have different rosters to pick from and the downside is that you start the early season at a far higher tempo than the Coach's a...

Re: Round 3 - Storm v Knights

The problem is that Fans, usually the younger ones want their Team to hit the ground running going full on looking good and winning comfortably, the reality is it's a bloody long physical season and the Coach's want to get to the business end of the season with as few injuries as possible and their ...

Re: Storm - Auckland 9s Side

All Teams will be a lot better tomorrow. Though I expect to see Warriors. Penrith & Eels to be in the SF's on todays performances. I think Storm will be in the mix if the desire is there, fighting to claim an SF place with several other Teams who will also step up performances.

Re: James O'Connor an option for Storm??

Somehow I can't see Bellyache going for him, he has too much baggage and despite his Union talent a big big ? as to whether he could cope with the different pressures of League! Its always nice to convert one from the Dark Side but not enough plusses this time to outweigh the negatives!

Re: *ucking Manly into another Grand Final!!

I wrote off Manly at the start of the season as past it, I didn't feel they had another GF in them, but when you look at their experience talent and mental toughness I shouldn't have been surprised, While the Knights have got the experience and mental toughness they lack the overall talent that Manl...

George Rose Signs

Someone had to replace Jason Ryles http://www.melbournestorm.com.au/news-d ... Rose/84916

It will certainly help the Club Shops sales of men's underwear!

Re: The Wheels fell off when..

WCC apart Storm have not performed at the same level of the last few seasons, pre Origin they flattered to deceive and some fortunate wins kept the illusion going The Origin series certainly drained those taking part not just Storms, Widdop getting that hip injury made for a more unbalanced side.

Re: STORM vs Raiders Rd 8

I haven't seen the match but first impressions is that getting away with general underpreforming finally caught up with Storm if hadn't been the Raiders it would have another Team pretty soon! Now that their arses have been kicked and I'm pretty sure Bellyache would have given the Squad a verbal cob...

Re: Round 7 - ANZAC Day Clash Storm vs Warriors - 25/04 @ 7:

Good Teams don't play 100% for 80 mins most of the time. Storm are not playing their best footy but the wins are still coming, its in the Playoffs that you need them to start playing the hi quality games. I hope Storm get to Origin undefeated but hopefully won't dip as badly like last season
