Cowboys will be playing like their season is on the line and I think we should do the same too. The comp is very congested but if we can't respond after a terrible performance last week then we really just don't have it in us this season.

We are under the microscope as well.

the whole Bellamy to Brisbane thing is going to start to smell like dead fish if we don't start performing on the field.

The eternal optimist in me says we will take the win tonight and maybe put on 40 pts. Goat and Jbrom will focus the team.

That lost ball call on Tonamaipea in the act of being pushed over was frankly, bullshit.

How can you possible argue that. He lost the ball stone cold and was no chance to recover it even if he was twice the speed of JAC.

Especially when that one on Hampton was called a penalty.

F*ck me.
Is there a prize for the dumbest thing a Storm player does tonight?

Kasiano is leading, but not by much.

The Stimson one wasn’t called a penalty either. So twice we had a player pushed as playing the ball - no call. Hampton gets one though.

Based on Kasiano's actions the prize is a week off.

A bit of same old tonight but a little bit of improvement there's a bit more urgency about us.
Jacks is a solid player but his kicking game isn't up to standard and lacks the speed to worry the defense.
Oh and this referee I absolutely can't stand him.

Hughes looking the most likely. Munster strong as well.
