No NAS? Hampton on the bench? Still not that comfortable with Hunt or Kennar.

As much as it hurts me, can't see any other outcome but a Warrior win... and a solid one at that :(

As the years go by I find myself hating the Warriors even more. Vatuvei, Johnson, Mannering and next year they have the cousin crippler joining them.

lima lima lima duck the warriors. Hope we smash 'em!

We'll win if NAS and Fonua are inclusions for Hampton and Kennar.

Surely Hampton is only there as cover for Cronk. Assuming Cronk is fit surely NAS or Welch come on to bench.

All our teams play virtually at same time:
Easts Tigers v Ipswich at 1:40 Sunday (live on Ch 9 Qld)
Sunshine Coast Falcons v Tweed Heads at 2pm Sunday

Ok, hopefully at the very least that means NAS in for Hampton.

Three cheers for the end of the origin (I'm going to go ahead and assume everyone joined in. .. ) maybe we can get this season back on track - this game is pretty important, given the amount of teams on the same points. .... I would expect NAS to come in for Hampton too

I did 8 cheers King Howe because I am doubly happy that NRL Club footy is the most important footy again (which it always was but those kooks in Qld and NSW think otherwise for some strange reason)... ::)
Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time

NAS in for Hampton - confirmed. That is the only change.

How are they getting away with offside while we've been hit twice. ... not to mention the penalty Cam earned out of dummy half that wasn't given. Their no try could have gone either way though. ... so I guess it's not all bad

This is a stitch up. ... no way that's a knock on. ..

That said; How to beat Storm 101 - just keep on offloading and passing
