Vale Bourbon Rat (George Fairclough)

So sad to hear of the sudden passing of George Fairclough aka Bourbon Rat. A friend who will be sadly missed at our home games with his smile, humour and smuggled contraband. Deepest sympathy to George's family and friends at this time. Rest in Peace our friend.

Re: Melbourne storm HOME game in NZ

Any Victorian AFL side could take home matches interstate/overseas and compensate members (with help from AFL no doubt) with reciprocal rights to away games in Melbourne. Being the only Victorian based NRL side, no such arrangement can exist. Moving a home game from Melbourne leads to only one concl...

Re: Trial 3 Storm vs Canterbury Bulldogs

Bill is back! hopefully ends up playing So guys how does admission into the trial work at AAMI? Would they have an open turnstile set up or do we need to arrange for tix Tickets either at the gate (as far as I'm aware) or online - or at a Ticketek outlet, I suppose. I've just checked online, $25 pl...

Re: New 2015 Jersey

Just for reference, this is the official Storm purple: http://www.pantone.com/pages/pantone/colorfinder.aspx?c_id=5494 I get that matching colours can be difficult when you're using so many different materials on so many different products - but there shouldn't be so much variation. Ye Gods, the me...

Re: New 2015 Jersey

We'll, the club did have a membership category Club 2602 or some such, named after the colour code of the purple. On that basis if there is a code to match to....should it be that hard???

Re: New 2015 Jersey

I have to agree with you Ice. Since 2010 I have completed every survey submitted to me by the club & NRL and included a request for a Member's Polo same as is available with the AFL club membership i also have. 2010 was the last decent member's cap. Good quality AND fully sponsored. As a proud m...

Was disappointed Hoffy didn't get a last chance to have a run in front of his home crowd before going to the Worriers.

Re: Pre season interruption

Let's not forget a few things. Firstly, it is not solely our facility, Aami was built to accommodate all rectangular field football codes. Secondly, the Asia cup is taking place during the soccer season, not our NRL season. Thirdly, how much money is this tournament going to pump into the Victorian ...

Re: Panthers and Cowboys Bandwagon

I don't think we can complain about being Storm fans and our finals performances of late.
Having just watched a great game, I don't think I could handle being a Cowboys fan after another heartbreaking finish.
And Robert Lui did knock it on, they've played it that way since who remembers.
