Re: Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park
All due respect to Coates, his match winner was as spectacular a clutch play as you'll ever see, he wasn't the second best player over 80 minutes. I agree, leave the spectacular try out of and it and he had a really good game. The one dropped bomb when they threw an absolute Blitzkrieg at him was p...

Re: Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park
The entire point of modern backline plays is to trap our FB close to the ruck on one side of the field, then inject your own fullback on the opposite side to create the overlap. Bellamy, from day dot has had the defensive philosophy to keep the middle tight and if the opposing backline play is good...

Re: Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park
Reimis Smith gets it wrong every single time. Such a poor defender. I have an observation to make about posting during the game. Some of us read the comments post match and I'm sure, like me, some will wonder what the comment was in reference to, usually, but not always I can work them out. Maybe t...

Re: Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park
So the ref found another way to provide a saloon passage for the Warriors...
I didn't realise this happened at the time, too busy looking at the huge overlap

Re: Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park
Worrying how much stronger and faster the Warriors looked for a fair chunk of that game. We couldn’t go with them at all as they were churning out 60m sets over and over. I think our effort was there we just lack “something” as a squad. Don’t want to fret too much about it as it’s only week two but...

Re: Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park
Warriors 66% completion rate in the first half flattered us We were shot whereas the Warriors were shot out of cannons in the second half. Needing three in every tackle when the big boppers are hurtling in to our line inevitably opens up the line with some passes. All our backs put their hands up in...

Re: Round 1 vs Panthers @ AAMI Park
I think something which has also been understated in this performance was the post contact metres. Didn’t do too well in that category last year but to have 646 metres (which was the most over the weekend) and considering the strength of opposition with all that defence which had to be done - that’...

Re: Round 1 vs Panthers @ AAMI Park
King didn't play like the number on his back, in fact, I don't think his role changed at all
Great win, GREAT
Great win, GREAT

Re: Round 1 vs Panthers @ AAMI Park
Bold of you to think Penrith will be called for blocking the ruck 🙄 The irony being that the only call for that was against us. The Panthers had a try disallowed for blocking Hughes... (I didn't think there was much in it but hey, I'll take it) There certainly were other occasions but a Craig Bella...

Re: Official thread and signing news
Club must see plenty more than what we do.
I'll admit freely to knowing nothing other than the sentimental factor

Re: Round 1 vs Panthers @ AAMI Park
Watching Munster in his press conference today it doesn’t look good, he clarified it’s a groin issue he has not a calf problem, he did some work at training today but stated if he isn’t able to perform at 80% or better in training tomorrow he will pull the pin for this week and Pez will take over t...

Re: Trials 2024
One thing that hasn't changed is our fella's left laying on the ground after the tackle and not getting back in to the line. King again

Re: Trials 2024
How can we ever get Sua and Pezet in to the team? Who can you leave out?
