bobby blair to wing? that's a bit wide for him, he doesn't have the pace or the ability under the high ball, i'd rather see hampton or even auva'a if it came to that!

definitely think gaz to fb and finch to 5/8 is the go though if billy doesn't come up.

Looks like Bill is a definite starter.

Confirmation soon.

Billy is playing but I think Finch will come into the bench...with Cronk and Slater under done he will serve as cover incase one of them goes down.

I'm guessing that if finchy plays, kenny will be unlucky and miss

Agreed, there's not much more Kenny could have done. He'll be back.

This will probably be our biggest regular season match of the year, along with Manly. Exposure for this one will be massive. That said, if there's any chance of inflaming Bill's injury I'd sit him out.

The bunnies have the most aggressive pack in the comp, it'll be a good yard stick to see where our boys are at.

Another tough game for Storm but it should be a belter, the Bunnies have looked more wobbly in getting their wins than Storm have, I think the Bunnies will give it their all first half and probably take the lead going into half time, Storm should do what they do best and come on strong in the latter half of the game! the Bunnies have got some forward power going especially young George Burgess who is plowing some good yards, it's a shame Maguire hasn't got his twin brother Tom playing yet and he has more experience than George after playing SL all last season for Bradford! While it won't be a disaster for Storm if they, lose Bellyache would still prefer to put a marker down early on!

Can I just remind everyone that we are talking about a round 6 match. I get they are both unbeaten and they are the two best teams on paper but still it is just round 6. I think sometimes we intend to get to carried away during the regular season with the hype for a game like this. Yes it would be great to win it but even if we don't it isn't like we are not going to see them again or that it is like the final game of the season.

Any chance Warren Smith could call one of our games with an unbiased view? I know he hates us, but this is ridiculous.

Turn the sound down and listen to the Wok on ABC.

Epic game. The thing that pleased me the most was that our defence was back to the defence we know and love. Sisa was taken his game to a new level. gee I love this club.
