How was the game?

This is an appreciation post towards Mark Nicholls (possibly Young and Brodie as well) this weekend

The guy is going to be exhausted by Monday night ...the life of a football ah

Mark left Melbourne with the Storm team on Weds had training in NZ on Thursday was in NZ Friday and warmed up with the team at Mt Smart till 7:50 left the ground with Young Curtis and Brodie and was on a plane to Brissie Australia at 9pm Friday night spent the night in Brissie

10am on Saturday with the Easts Tigers he flew to Port Morsby PNG (possibly with Brodie and young ...not sure which team young is with)

So in the last 3 days Mark has been in 3 different country's so even if the Easts Tigers don't win I'm giving him a pat on the back

This also goes to Young and Brodie as well if they play for the Tigers

[RobbieRoss]

Both Easts and Sunshine Coast won today ( reading from QRL website ). Good news - heaps of Storm players involved , including Brandon Smith and Jahrome Hughes. As far as I can gather , the only Storm players who did not play this weekend were Slade , Tohu, Curtis Scott and Shem. Of course we now lose Cam Munster and Suli for a few weeks, but plenty of blokes fit and pushing up for spots.

[Mattpoet]

Is Scott injured? I would think he would be in the frame to replace Suli.

[sallymay]

I haven't heard anything official about Curtis but I follow him of social media and the last 2 ish weeks he has been in a boot so I don't know how injured he is but it seems he is in some way

Lol when I checked the QRL live website it said full time, although I did think it was weird that no one scored after half time.
