Re: Rep Squads and Awards

You wish Sua was a bit bigger so you could play him on the wing and figure it out with him and Paps coming off his injuries but if Sua keeps progressing a big decision will need to be made. Could Paps play 5/8? Just askin! What would you do with Munster? Put him in as a playmaking lock and demand t...

Tonight: Catalans Dragons v St Helens

Re: Queensland Cup

Tigers' edge defence very reminiscent of Storm's. Defending too close in and not able to slide and cover.

How the Bunnies #4 didn't get binned for the shot on Jennings is anyone's guess.

Re: Who is no be kept from the 2023 squad

The elephant in the room, aside from the fact that Olam has plenty of time left to run on his contract, is Papenhuyzen. No point worrying about how to accomadate Sua and/or Meaney while such a massive question marks remains on Paps. This is going to go down like a lead balloon, but I have doubts he...

Re: Rep Squads and Awards

My two cents; PACIFIC TOURNAMENT Kangaroos I think they will probably keep the Hunt/Grant combo for the Kangaroos, but he's looked exhausted in his last few games and it wouldn't hurt him to have the rest. I'll be gobsmacked if Munster is picked, he's been nowhere near his best since Origin. There h...

The reffing wasn't good and favoured Penrith significantly. But that wasn't even close to the problem.

Honestly, we could have been wearing maroon and had "Grasshopper" Gomersall as ref and we still wouldn't have won.

Nope, Gee was ordinary. Panthers got away with heaps that we got penalised for.
Didn't cost us the game, but certainly put us on the back foot.

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium

If Penrith were held to the same account as Storm by the refs it would have been a lot closer. Wouldn't have won, but maybe not embarrassed. NAS threatened with a sin bin for a late push on clearly just showed the attitude that Gee carried into the game. And while Sydney fans call NAS a grub, all of...

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium

Just wish the game had been refereed fairly.

We were never going to win, not with all those mistakes. But seriously, some of the things that we've been penalised for and the panthers have got away with are just bulls*it.

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium

Panthers were good.
But Storm's stupid mistakes stopped it being a contest.

Pretty damn disappointing from our guys.

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium

I can't beleive how depressing it is to have so little faith that the team will be successful on Friday. I 've followed Storm since the first game at the Graveyard and can't remeber ever being so depressed before a game . I'm thinking the the best outcome will be if we are at least competitive. Oh ...
