Re: PRELIMINARY FINAL - Storm vs Sharks

I don't think anyone should be concerned about him missing the game fwiw. I think what Slater did was the right thing to do but technically probably a shoulder charge. The NRL has shown to be pretty consistent in not charging similar tackles this season so my real problem with this is why is this t...

Sadly, I think Billy will be cited. Sydney media will not let up and will accuse Melbourne of being a protected club if they don't.

Sanity should prevail, but I wouldn't want to be the NRL or the MRC this week

Re: Storm vs Sharks/Panthers line up

Flanagan has just said that Gallen will play. He'll do everything to make sure that he's right. He's aware of the injury as he's done it before apparently.

Nonetheless, and based on Kaufusi's performance last week, we need to be sending him out Gallen's way to test him out hard!

Re: Storm vs Sharks/Panthers line up

What a finish! I feel sorry for the panthers but you only make things hard for yourself when you start slow and are chasing the game. With Gallen doubtful, Lewis 50/50, if we can contain Fifita and Townsend, I think we'll be OK. Holmes was reasonably quiet tonight so hopefully we've taken notes on w...

Re: QUALIFYING FINAL - Storm vs Rabbitohs

Agreed. They were on fire and ohhhhh what a game to lift in. What makes this win even sweeter for me is we had the tenacity to bounce back from two incredulous refereeing decisions, both which resulted in try's against us, but also the non existent rub of the green. Every bounce of the ball seemed t...

Re: QUALIFYING FINAL - Storm vs Rabbitohs

Question for you all.

Does Cheyse Blair keep his place in the squad in 2 weeks time or does Chambers come straight back into the team at his expense?

Re: QUALIFYING FINAL - Storm vs Rabbitohs

Vunivalu scoring kind of makes up for his brain snap up the other end of the field. We'd be 8 points up if he worried less about arguing with the touchy and getting stuck into the player with the ball
