T is 6ft 4ins (195cm) ...even accounting for he is in front of Mahe I think Mahe would be struggling to be 185cm. Plus, have seen them together and there's just no way!

Couldn't agree more!! In the words of Geoff Toovey... there's gotta be an investigation into Mahe's height!! :lol: :lol:

The more I think about this game the more I lose confidence in the win. Theres been too much said about the win streak we have over them and how they'll fire up for their outgoing coach.

I agree Bula I was thinking a win was on the cards until I heard all that.

Where was the conclusive evidence that Cronk didn't graze the in-goal with his try!? There were a number of times the vision was obscured.

He probably did save the try but the VRs aren't following their retarded processes... again. We all knew that Waqa scored against Canberra but were told that there had to be 100% conclusive evidence to overturn the on-field decision.

F*cking joke.

FWIW...my impression was that it was held up and one angle seemed to support that.

I wanted a try....but there did seems to be a sequence of shots with the ball in the air

While i agree we've been on the end of some absolutely shocking calls i reckon the second last view showed he never grounded it. Without that there's no way they could prove conclusively but i reckon that one was pretty clear as much as i hate to admit it.

We definitely got the better of a shocking decision with Hoffy's try. Easily a penalty against Billy for the challenge on the Bronco defender.

What an excellent win. No doubt all we'll read is how bad the Donkey's played and nothing about how we never allowed them to play well. Won't mean much unless we aim up against the Tigers next week but if we can i'm confident we can go on one of our post origin runs as we have in the past. Whether that's enough to win a GF remains to be seen but given this season is closer than any other in recent memory there's no reason why not.

Always room for some improvement...but that was a pleasing win....

Like I said earlier this week....

teams can fire up when Finals are on the line.

Guess the Storm love Finals more than the Donkeys love Griffin.

No doubt we can improve and will need to for sure but we're certainly on the right track and can build leading into the finals i think.

Great win by the boys. One of our best games all year especially when one of their tries came from that sloppy play that ended in Hodges kick that almost went out.

I love Koroibete so glad we picked him up especially when the Tigers lost a winger to injury last week. Jesse is a gun his offloads are awesome.Jesse should be our player of the year.

I thought Tim Glasby had a good game too. Disappointed he is off to the Cowboys.

Well done to Hoffy on his double
