Re: RD 7 - Storm @ Manly (4 Pines Park)

We are falling a part and simultaneously hanging in there. This is the most frustrating game.

I stand by it that manly are too big and too fired up, we just cant match them when we give them 50m starts to their set.

Edit: "pathetic" is probably a little harsh given the conditions and reffing, but we're far from good, put it that way.
Reffing is a cop out. They call it as they see it.

Re: RD 7 - Storm @ Manly (4 Pines Park)

I think Pezet at 5/8 and Meany at FB is a better on field combo than Pezet and Munster at FB. I feel Munster is being asked to do a bit of both and as a result he's doing both roles poorly.

Re: RD 7 - Storm @ Manly (4 Pines Park)

I say it each week we are under the pump but Welch is still out there doing a huge opening stint. This is what a captain does! Love the leadership.

It is clear DCE has entered his elite stage. He's got it on a string.

Re: RD 7 - Storm @ Manly (4 Pines Park)

They are bashing us within the laws of the game and it's working very well.

Their forwards are running hard every single carry. They are also super human size. Missing Nelson for sure this week.

Re: Round 6 Storm v Roosters

I recon if you cut Which open he would bleed purple. What a performance he's delivered thus far. All forwards really putting in work. I feel Katoa is noticeably slower in getting up to play the ball, if he can speed that up that would improve that right edge. Munster and Hughes combining is a thing ...

My tip for this evening is Cheese is taken off with HIA for going too hard.

Re: When Paps is back, How does it change the Team Structure

Papa will be back just before finals in my opinion. Big call yes.

When that occurs Id think Warbrick has that X factor physical ability that Meany doesn't. Each have their strengths but I'd have Meany at 14 as back up for all outside backs and halves. Warbrick is too good to drop

Re: Round 5 Rabbitohs v Storm

Nick Meany still not a full back this week? His try saver says volumes. Ran better today also. Was it a case of us being a better team? I think partly yes but also we played with more purpose. My spotlight on Loiero again, 7 missed tackles which was frustrating but another 140m+, 14 hit ups, 47 tack...

Re: Round 5 Rabbitohs v Storm

Is Walker opposite Munster or Pezet? I believe its Munster. However, He is our danger man, get in his head and the games ours, but give him an inch and its a tough night. I am less concerned with Illias, I think Pezet would match him physically. Big game in the fwds for sure. Need the support from O...

Re: Round 4 Storm v Tigers at AAMI Park

Loiero is super consistent, the workhorse and was more noticed tonight. 20 hit ups and 177m and 37 tackles Grant with 50 tackles King, and Welch in the 40s 4 of our starting pack making over 100m with Alec Macdonald close on 98m Pezet is unbelievable. He is so in tune with his kicks to Xavier. Xavie...

Re: Round 4 Storm v Tigers at AAMI Park

Don’t like knocking him but felt Harry’s service from dummy half was very clunky and that’s why the attack was so disjointed in the second half. It’s also not great that the only forward who seems to be able to make something happen in attack can’t hold onto the ball. Agreed and then I checked his ...
