Don't go blaming his personal demons. The guy is a dickhead, pure and simple.
I hear ya mate, why I was saying what I said is that if our boys reacted to his hatered last night it could of easily been WrestleMania 2017 lol. I'm just glad our Storm boys just flicked it off like water to a ducks back.
We are all human's, dickheads or not we should always hope that the dickheads can turn their lives around for the better.

Go Storm!

I'm relieved as I wasn't sure about Will's shoulder charge penalty. Wasn't much in it but you can never be certain with the NRL.

Can't believe the kick on Harris wasn't charged at the very least.

You would rarely see him be given the ball on a last play out from the line. He just gets to do his regular job, tackle, hit it up, quick play-the-balls, have the opposition second-guessing (dummy runner).
No surprise here ...he's always been able to do that :cry:

Gonna miss him next year. Don't get me wrong, Stimson will do a wonderful job but Tohu's size and all-round game will not be replicated.

I know your connection... so you obviously know more than we do haha. Personallyfrom watching Tohu in the under 20s, he's always done it. He runs a great line, but it's always been his late footwork that I think stood him apart as a back row gun. I for one am gutted he's leaving, trust me when I say my family and friends know that I was talking him up before he debuted... and I love to remind them I was right! haha

Thanks guys. I'm sure he has appreciated all your support over his 7 years with the Storm, and he appreciates all he's learned along the way - best club, best team, best coach, best mates, best fans! I know we have...hope he does his bit to help Storm to another Premiership which would cap off the most amazing year!
