Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

Ok, to be fair we as Storm fans have been spoiled. We've missed the finals 3 times in 25 years - an absolutely spectacular run. We have nothing to complain about. I'm absolutely greatful. But f*ck that was disappointing! Yep. This is true. We've been very lucky to see our team play so many finals o...

Don’t care about the result. Devastated for Ryan.

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

I know Reimis doesn’t get a lot of love on the forum, but for mine he has to start at centre. His 1 on 1 defence is outstanding. I've been a big wrap on him. I had to look back and 14th June 2021 I was noting his one on one defence. I was surprised when Bellamy effectively dropped him after his inj...

Re: Round 26 - Storm vs Titans AAMI Park, 26th Aug

Surely a good team in the finals will burn us for it but genuinely impressed and surprised Young and Seve are keeping out the more recognised duo for another week. Gotta be a bit embarrassing to think the highly rated King was dropped. Dropped if he plays QCup … workload managed if he doesn’t play ...

Re: Official thread and signing news

Good signing if there’s a way to fit him under the cap, I don’t know how we could possibly fit him under the cap though. Selling Hughes would work. Pezet will be ready for NRL by 2025. Or Pappy, Hughes, Grant and Munster all take a haircut to fit in Haas and exponentially enhance their chances of w...

A lot of blokes would need to do an AFL Hawthorn sacrifice and re-negotiate their contracts…..

Re: Papi is back!

Fantastic news. Just in case Nick Meaney or his friends read this forum, I think it is worth saying that he has been a wonderful acquisition to the Storm. He came as an outside back , at what I assume is a relatively modest salary and has had to cover in the halves and at fullback , as well as taki...

Re: Official thread and signing news

I wonder if Faitala-Mariner is worth a look. At this stage of his career (29 going 30) they either chase a payday or one last crack at a Premiership. If he came cheap could be a shrewd signing. Adds some experience and leadership. Would give some punch off the bench too, which we need. I'd take him...

Re: Official thread and signing news

The four year extension for Olam was crazy at the time. The club clearly misread Olam's player type. Reimis only being 26 is crazy because it feels like he's been around forever. Keeping him for a couple more seasons should be obvious but I'm not sure we can stay status quo at centre moving forward...

Re: Official thread and signing news

Reimis Smith(27) and Meaney(27) are probably next 2 that we look at re extensions. OOC end of next year. Reimis looks happy enough to stay. I sure hope he does. I think NM will attract a bit of interest given how well he's playing and might leave for a spot in a starting 13. Long term here he proba...
