Re: 2016 Dally M Awards - 28th September

Ray Warren has called one Storm game this year. How is he going to know the players names next week. I think we should send him a cheat sheet because he will have no idea who they are, not that anyone in Sydney or Channel nine will care.[/quote] Warren will not need a cheat sheet. He will commentate...

Re: In the 2016 grand final

In amongst all the vitriol we are going to cop this weekend, it is worth remembering - and reminding others - that Cronulla are convicted drug cheats . Their coach Flanagan copped a 12 month ban. Players including Gallen and Graham pleaded guilty. They copped a very soft suspension , but they did pl...

Re: Share your old grand final memories

I hasten to add that Mick's tackle was a fair one- ball and all. I would never condone illegal violence on the footy field . Mick walked a fine line from time to time, but he was spot on that night .

Re: Share your old grand final memories

Great photos . I have no photos to share, but my favourite win was 07. We had it won so far from the end ( and would have been even earlier if Cam had not sprayed his goalkicks) , so could really soak it up. Especially after the disappointment of the previous year, it was SO good. My favourite GF mo...

Re: PRELIMINARY FINAL - Storm vs Raiders

Ceccin made an awful call on Blair's disallowed try imo. There was no obstruction and it would've sealed the game for us. Fortunately for us it didn't cost us the game but it's bs that it's being ignored post match. I had wondered about that. The refs were so adamant, so I assumed it must have been...

Re: PRELIMINARY FINAL - Storm vs Raiders

One of my sons lives in Canberra ( but still a Storm supporter ) , and I have already warned him to expect a heap of whinging from Stuart and the whole Canberra team. Cecchin can polarise opinion, and I think he made some errors against us, BUT he is one referee who has the courage to make his own d...

Re: Panthers or Raiders?

Well it will be the Raiders and they will be tough. BUT : 1. They got an absolute armchair ride from the ref. They got every 50:50 ( and many that were not even 50:50) . They dropped balls that were called strips - about 3 of those. Were given much more of the ball than they deserved. 2. Penrith mad...

Re: Queensland Cup 2016

That is a terrific win. Tumusa played too, but went off after 11 mins ( according to QRL website) and did not return, so must be injured.

Re: NRL Grand Final 2016

Thanks also from me, Ice. As with Bullucked, I have never taken the risk of not getting tickets for me and the family, so pulled the trigger back in June and forked out for tickets on the 40m line. This will be my 5th GF. For the future however , I will take your advice and hold back until GF week s...

Re: Round 26 - Storm vs Sharks - MINOR PREMIERSHIP BATTLE

Jack Wighton has copped a grade 2, which would see him miss 3 games even with early plea? NRL Website quotes Michael Buettner from the MRC justifying the differences between Wighton and Ennis. This will send Canberra into a frenzy and potentially distract them from the task at hand.

Re: #ChambersOut

I'd like to imagine a few people here were eating humble pie tonight. Why? Regardless of how he played last night that still doesn't change the fact he's been decidedly average by his standards since he returned from injury. Also i bet every single person on here who's criticised him would love him...

Re: Round 26 - Storm vs Sharks - MINOR PREMIERSHIP BATTLE

Super win. Great defence. Wonderful performance by all 4 outside backs . Best game by Chambers since his return. I see the criticism of Welch being selected ahead of Kaufusi, but I think , with the loss of NAS, Craig wanted a bigger body. With NAS back next week, I guess both those lads will miss ou...
