Re: Round 22 - Storm vs Raiders

Forgive me for going back in time a decade... We've been saying this stuff ever since Steve Turner days. This has been how teams scored against us, not much changes just the players who occupy the wings. We didn't care or notice that much when Suli was in the position as he was far quicker, stronge...

Re: Away to Souths

I really do hope Nicho gets a bumper deal at another club and gets the starting spot. Really deserves nothing but the best. Was amazing tonight.
Smith and Grant combo is one of my all time favourites already.
Long way to go but if we win the comp this year it would be the sweetest one yet.

Re: Round 5 V Bulldogs

Jennings made 262 metres off 25 carries.
98 after contact also. Huge effort.

Some of the combinations are really starting to come together well too.

Re: Round 2 - Eels vs Storm

Always gonna be a tough night with the weather, away crowd booing everything and the ref giving Parra so many piggybacks without affording us the same luxury. A lot of criticism towards Jennings but I really like his running game making crucial metres and gaining a bit of momentum for us. Smith coul...

Re: Round 1 vs Rabbits

All things considered that was really good first outing. South's were really threatening with the ball. Obviously the new combinations need work. I thought Jennings running from the back was solid. Reimis was good too. I thought NAS lacked his usual impact at 13. Anyway great to see them back and wi...

Re: Podcast featuring Champ Cheese

The podcast with Sandor is really good too. What he overcame and more on the character or Bellamy and the club. Loved both interviews

Re: 2020 Grand Final - Panthers vs Storm

The hymn for Suli should be the poster of what the Melbourne Storm are That was awesome. Re Suli, I think he put together his best back to back performance in his career against Canberra and then the GF. I think every single Storm fan rode him home like Bellamy did lol. I have watched the replay so...

Re: 2020 Grand Final - Panthers vs Storm

I watch Penrith every week they're my second side and they have a real weakness in defense around Kikau. That's where we target. Neither Viliame, Luai or Crighton are solid defenders.
Kicking to Suli up against Mansour is definitely on. All night.

We can definitely win.

Re: Official thread and signing news

Jennings is an awesome signing. He actually turned down an offer back in 2011/2012 so good to see him sign now

Re: Official thread and signing news

I wouldn't mind George Jennings who is on loan to the Warriors. Very strong for those tough carries and is a solid player. He hasn't had much chance to show his top speed but once he gets going he gallops.
I don't think we'll land a big name like a Nofoaluma.

Re: Round 8 - Storm vs Roosters

I’m here to say I was wrong about Tino.
I never saw the big fuss but he is getting better every game and Thursday was by far his best.
By the time he leaves for the Titans he will be a match winner.

Re: Round 2 - Sharks vs Storm

Good opening fortnight considering we played two slug fests against two sides that always bring their best (or worst) I'm really liking that Hughes has found his radar with Suli and really just growing as a halfback and playmaker. Jesse, Tui, NAS, Dale and Tino really stood up in the middles in that...

Olam IIRC off a grubber. He managed to just get it in time.

Re: Round 1 Predicted Lineups

I’m not sold on Tino. Really hasn’t impressed me in any top grade games. If he came without the hype I’d probably say he’s got big potential though lol
