Minutes? I think seconds are more likely.

Jahrome Hughes has nine try assists this season despite missing two games. He's only one behind Luke Keary and equal third.

In all of last year, he had 12 try assists.

Surely this is a sign he's improving as a halfback.

Hughes has been very good in 2020. Even in 2019 he looked promising as a 7 - way more so than Croft, who had much more expectation.

If we don't go all the way this year, I genuinely don't see it as a result of issues at halfback or anywhere in the spine. It will be through our forwards being out-enthused or our edges not hitting the mark.

Would love to know the breakdown of assists from kicks and passes. He's improving but still has a ways to go as a playmaker.

Pretty much confirmed that Albie Vete will play tomorrow night. Hoffy presented Albie with his 50th game jersey at the captain's run.

I've seen Vete's 50th mentioned but what about Hughes? He's due for his 50th as well.

I wondered about that too Mattpoet. I thought maybe Hughes mightn't be playing. But Ryley Jacks and Chris Lewis have dropped out of the squad. So Hughes must be playing.

Do they not realise maybe? It's 48 Storm games so possibly they're also just holding off for hus 50th Storm game.

That is the only thing I can think of that he is close to 50 Storm games, whereas Albie is only playing his 4th Storm game. I would have thought you would celebrate Hughes milestones twice in three weeks.

Suli to wing, Momirovski to bench, Seve and Schonig out

NELSON HOLD THE FKN THING. My word what a frustrating start and not from the usual suspects.

The more I see Suli play the more I want Momo to get that wing position.

Once again Paps nowhere to be found in defense.

But NAS, FFS - get your head in the game or get Brandon out there!

Bellamy wants to reward NAS for his contributions over the years by giving him a starting position, but I doubt anyone could convince me otherwise that NAS’s best role is bench impact player.
