Re: 2011 Official Thread + Signing news

The Paulos and Kennedy do show promise but I suggested Gower or Sweeney because I think we may need a couple of mature forwards who can play straight away a la Tandy and Norre the last couple of years just in case the young promising forwards such as Bromwich, Kite, Vea etc don't step up as quickly ...

Re: I Know you all hate him but you gotta admit HAYNE is the BEST!

So everyone (ie Parra fans and Sydney media) are basing their opinion on Jarryd Hayne being the best on 6 or 7 great games at the end of last year and 2 or 3 good games prior to the weekend. How can he be the best when he has done virtually nothing in Origin or for Australia? He also did nothing in ...

I would prefer we pick up David Gower from Balmain Ryde Tigers or Aaron Sweeney from Windsor Wolves.

Re: How exciting does Sione Kite look !!!!

As I said in another topic/thread, I have been hanging out for Sione to play first grade and he didn't let me down. A bit of a dilemma for the selectors this week with both Norrie and White due back. Norrie has been our best / most consistent forward all year, so he will come back into the side and ...

You wouldn't expect much else from Freddy, he does work with the network that provides us with such great coverage (Channel None).

Re: Plane Crashes killing 16

The Eagle this topic is gold. I was at the Wallabies v All blacks clash and when I saw the Eels result on my phone I thought about posting plane / train crash kills 17 (was going to include Hayne as part of death toll). I guess you beat me to the punch. I am not sure if he is a train or plane anymor...

Re: O'Neill and Norrie re-sign for 2 years

Woo hoo, great news. I did say when we first signed Norrie that he would be as solid as our other 60 game recruit Luke MacDougall. He has been far better. Norrie was always going to stay because we saved his NRL career. Norrie just puts his hand up and keeps asking for work. Great to see O'Neill sta...

Re: Tandy to stay a bulldog

Have been a big fan of Ryan Tandy since I saw him play a few games for Balmain Ryde Tigers in NSW Cup and Ireland in RLWC. I was pumped when he came to the Storm and I think the Storm helped turn him into a consistent first grade player. Shame we couldn't keep him considering he would have been a re...

Re: Independent Storm directors abandon legal action

Billythekidslater - You're a fu#king joke. They have no choice - They can't persue it because they are not involved with the club anymore. They really have no choice. So I now expect you take back what you just called them. You have no idea the measures these 4 directors have gone to, and the amoun...

Re: Can anyone shed light on why Neilsen played NSW cup today

When I first heard Justin was in for Dane, my immediate thought was that Dane would not be at the Storm next year. This disappoints me because I am a big fan of Danger although he hasn't been as effective the last couple of weeks as he had been previously.

Re: Greg Inglis to Brisbane

If we are paying $200k in our cap for the next two years for GI, I would be unhappy with that. However, if it meant we kept Sika and Blair than that is a good consolation. After the way we stood by Greg during his assault case, it really hurts if he has just thrown it back in our face. We don't know...

Re: Cooper Cronk

To HayneHeadbutt, if Cronk goes to the Eels (which I hope he doesn't), you would have one quality player in your side then. Hayne supposedly the "best player in the world", lets look at his output in big games: 2009 Grand final: he did nothing, matches for Australia: nothing, matches for N...
