well what a good second half. I say that...because i didnt see the first!!! thought the game started at 7:30 stupid nz and the time difference.
Boys played awesome...but again it was verse a bottom of the ladder team. We need to do that to the likes of Dragons and Bulldogs if we are going to win this year.
GI is a freak!!!!

Despite the fact that they are a bottom of the ladder team, I thought they brought great intensity and speed to the game, which Storm not only needed to match, but better. Regardless of ladder position, they always seem to bring something extra against us, and it was such an entertaining game.Super Cronk wrote: Boys played awesome...but again it was verse a bottom of the ladder team.

Our defence was ready to counter their speed which was good - it meant while we were scrambling sometimes, it was nonetheless successful.
It was a must-win game, and we won it

Good effort form the boys, bit concerned about how long it took us to get a breakthrough but oculd be a result of Warriors being pumped up. Really happy with the amount of drop-outs we forced, something Ive been wanting for 2 years now.
Aidan Tolman was enormous, 27 runs for 230m .
Billy easily had his best game of the year, nice timing.
Good signs from Greg. If he keeps it up we can win this thing
And finally, Wai Koopu, 7 runs for 71 meters, never thought Id see the day.
Edited to add Will Chambers was very good as well. Imo its a shame he's going to Onion, he is developing into a very nice center and I hope he comes back to the game in a couple of years.

What a great effort.
I don't care that we were playing the Warriors, it was in NZ, Stacey Jones farewell match and we always had trouble playing the Warriors.
From the kick off we looked really on, defence intensity and really gave them nothing all game.
Everyone was pretty impressive. Chambers was great, he's coming along nicely still think he needs to back himself more when he broke away to score his first try he still looked so unsure on what to do.
Koopu good off the bench
And as stated already if Greg keeps playing like this we can still win the comp.
Thats how we must play on the road all the time!
How good was the under 20 boys? what a crazy game! down 16-0 got it back to 20-20 then down 44-24 with 20 minutes to go and come all the way back to win! Tomane was carving up

That's the first under 20s game I've seen all year! They were awesome, Justin O'Neal is Chambers and Nielsens love child! He was really impressive as was our other winger Duffman. Two big tall boys, hope they make the transition to first grade.
Back on the game, Blair playing out wide is working really well. Maybe Chambers is a slow developer cause he is getting better and better. Tandy looks a solid player and could really nail down a bench spot.
Billy's got his groove back and it was great to see Inglis in open spacen more than once.
But ill save my best wraps for Cronk and Finch, theyr controlled the game so well. Best kicking display from them all season, McKinnon was caught out everytime.
I love it, my prediction is we will get a week off and then get a smooth passage into the GF.
Let's Go Storm, if we win and get a week off, Manly get knocked out! Hahahahaha

I'm gonna miss Turner and Chambers!!!!! WHY. Why did Storm go for Tomane!!! I hope Chambers comes back to league too. He started the season pretty slowly, but he did come back from little experience and a knee re-co. But atm I wouldn't swap him for any other centre.
Oh and I loooooved the offloads!! Who knew Whitey was such a good offloader! lol. I'm So excited for the finals!! Let's kick some Eagle butt!

Yeh i love the fact that we were willing to offload the ball at every good opportunity, we look so much better when we actually look to use the ball, we do have the players to dominate when we do play with a litte more freedom in attack. We had a crazy amount of offloads in the first 15 minutes i think
