Re: Round 22 - Storm vs Raiders
Meahhh we were due for a loss ...the boys are human...the raiders just worked harder...I’d be more worried if we lose to the titans While I hate to be a pessimist, I actually feel the other way. Losing this after leading 18-0 really concerns me. Our first half was ok, nothing more. The scoreline wa...

Re: Round 21 - Rabbitohs vs Storm
Gather round children and I'll tell you about the halcyon days of a pre-Melbourne rugby league world where nobody needed a hospital. In fact, hospitals were invented by Sydney clubs in response to Storm tactics. Or so the tale goes. I may have just exceeded the maximum sarcasm dosage for this forum...

Re: Round 22 - Storm vs Raiders
Cody Walker also did his damnedest to try and get a penalty call against them for a raised arm any time he tackled them - something I admit that the boys need to watch; but mostly because the Nein commentary team called them out (because of Cody's whinging). They are certainly not unique in doing s...

Re: 2019 Run to the Finals
I would prefer we lost to a low rank team (like the titans when our Origin crew are rested this weekend) than a genuine finals contender. No need to give our more dangerous opponents any confidence if they meet us in the finals. Bellyache will also want to be a bit conservative in making sure we pea...

Re: Round 18 - Titans vs Storm
Stimson to 6 has to be a joke surely. Would've thought either Kenny or Dale would be a more believable 6 than him. Those who know, has he played there in juniors? Kenny has been in top form recently. His passing has been on fire and he put through that nice kick last week for the Olam try. Could do...

Re: Round 17 - Storm vs Sharks - CAM400
There really wasn't anything in the Christian charge. He didn't follow through with a tackle, more just held his ground and then the collision that resulted floored Fifita which is sometimes just what happens when two big bodies collide. There's been a bit of inconsistency in terms of how these tack...

Re: Round 18 - Titans vs Storm
Some teams get a 'bounce-back' factor after their coach gets fired. May be something to consider but given how poorly the Titans have played in recent weeks its hard to see them causing us any concerns.

Re: Rep Round
Given the rarity of quality halves across the league there's not many players I would pick ahead of Munster to play FE anyway. He's among the top 5 halves in the comp and despite being an excellent FB I think we're more than adequately covered in that position with Hughes and Paps.

I just imagine this scenario right after the game.

Re: Round 17 - Storm vs Sharks - CAM400
Are we expecting a sell-out for this game? No word from the club about members having to pre-book tickets... Hoping for a huge turnout to cheer on our champion skipper.
