So far so pathetic.
Very disappointing. Our entire left side defence needs to be hooked - only trouble is who to replace them with.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately
Go Storm

How good was Billy's kick for Waqa's try? And off his left boot too.
C'mon Storm!! It's only a 16pt game. They can't keep up such intensity so we need to start well and then win the battle of attrition.

Rubbish. The lot of them. Bellamy should flog them at training this week. Refs lima lima lima duck the proverbial cock of the Eagles faithful tonight but the Storm still need a rocket!

Well played Manly. An almost flawless display.

Storm were terrible tonight. That is the worst I've ever seen Cam play, Coops was off too. Hoffy gave away too many penalties early and was then shut down completely.
Waqa and Slater are the only two players who can hold their heads up tonight

Manly were very good. Storm were very poor. It was Manly's night though, they had about three passes that found the ground and luckily Manly were able to get onto them. Didn't matter what we did. Every thing that could go wrong tonight did.

On the bright side Sisa Waqa scored a try and Manly don't play finals at Brookie.

Horrible first half from us. Line speed was a big problem. When Blair came back in at centre, his effort to get in the face of his opposite was his best asset. Tonight he sat on his heels and was constantly burnt.

Taking nothing away from Manly who were outstanding.

Our forwards need to lima lima lima duck lift. Have some pride FFS! Soft runs, getting driven back almost EVERY lima lima lima duck tackle. Our effort in general just wasn't there tonight. Every time there was a loose ball, Manly were much more desperate to get to it. Other than the effort, particularly in the opening 20, I'm not overly concerned.

Glenn Stewart's dive should see that cat suspended. Worse than most soccer dives I have seen. What a fat pussy.
