Re: Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park
Special finish. The Big X was unreal.
On the game let’s not forget our first 40 was quality. We were dominated in the 2nd half - missing NAS and some middle oomph there.
Great to get the W, things to improve for the future

Re: Round 1 vs Panthers @ AAMI Park
Brilliant win.
Hard to pick a stand out as every player was 8/10 or higher…
Throw NAS and Munster In there and things bode well

Re: 2023, The post mortem
Similar to what I said In the Penrith match thread Katoa and Warbrick were excellent Faalongo, Garlick and Pezet showed they are future first teamers. We just about covered the holes left by 2022 departures to remain competitive, but nothing more. When Coates doesn’t play you actually realise what w...

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium
Having cooled my jets overnight I am humble enough to say we were a distant 2nd best last night and probably lost to a 3-peat team who will go down as one of the best the comp has seen. Adam Gee was not the problem. As for the Storm whether you say we “were one win away from a GF” or “miles off it” ...

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium
I don’t understand the love for Morera on here? Sure he’s had the odd good game - spell but he’s also prone to an error and I’m not sure of his fitness to make the efforts CB expects. The Broncos game he played well in was their reserves. Joe Chan actually looked better. We need more power in the fo...

Re: 1st Semi Final vs Roosters @ AAMI Park
I know we don’t play the Eels every week but how we played them at home when we smashed them is our best chance given our players on deck. We cannot pass the ball side to side with any threat. The left flank doesn’t have Fox and Kenny Brom any more.. We need to go hard and fast up the the middle, of...

Re: 1st Semi Final vs Roosters @ AAMI Park
The team tonight needs to: Step up in the middle and match the Roosters pack and give Grant some opportunities to work off the go forward. Then we need Munster magic. A large slab of it please… Win this in the forwards. Do not think it’s all outwide and trying to take on the patched up Chooks back l...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium
Sua'ali'i & Manu out next week & no Hargreaves. If we still can’t win that’ll do me. Either way whether we advance or not, we ain’t beating Penrith in Penrith. I love storm, die hard fan but we just don’t have the backs and forwards to match them. Can’t deny but a Penrith vs broncos GF woul...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium
I think my intended post didn’t make it. Storm are on life support but not out. Fire up the troops for next week. Paps injury not as bad as feared but still a body blow…. Beat the average looking Sharks and Roosters and go again. Play hard up the middle. Best 13 to run on. NAS to start and Faalongo ...

Re: Round 27 - Rest and Blood players
Waking up still gutted. The performance was tripe, respect to the Broncos who deserved the win but the Paps injury is shattering. How unlucky can a player be? In my view now is not the time for slinging season failure opinions around as valid as they maybe. We are still alive and as slim as GF hopes...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium
Just terrible passing the ball. Always better through the middle. Especially with the centre/SR combos we have…
Oh for the Olam,K Brom/Fox days
