Late changes to the residence team Mitch Garbutt out (NRL call up)
So Mitch is playing the Bulldogs and as Tim is still in the residents team, he wont be playing v Bulldogs. Could the team that plays be 1 - 17 for the second week in a row?

This game could have been a block buster if the NRL had played this game when BOTH teams were at full strength instead of just one.Why play this game when the best players are missing? afl wouldn`t blow a chance like this. the dogs and media will think they are premiership favorites if they beat STORM this w/e as they won`t bother with the details of who is in or out for STORM.

Looks like we are the biggest roughie of the week again at $4.70.

Even Parramatta are shorter odds than us. I know I was confident the last game we played without Origin stars but I am still confident this week. O'Neill at the back and the big bench look good.

Stand up boys!

That means Tim Browne is on the bench for the Dogs.

our kicking game is hopeless again.. about equal if not worse than the tigers game imo.. fonua wasnt back on the 5th n reynolds kicked a 40/20 and perret scored a soft try.. lot of line breaks for dogs..
