The winning streak kept us from seeing a few weaknesses we had. Widdop has been below par all season (including the WCC) and finally losing has made it more obvious. I don't think Craig will drop him but I do think Finch will see some more playing time off the bench. Really is a sticky situation but...

Really is pointless.

He's been getting better every week. Broke the line 5 or 6 times last night. Looking dangerous.

Is when there was no intention behind it. Your scum fullback knew exactly what he was doing when he raised his elbow. Joke that he gets away with something again.

Mahe is just your typical young winger atm. He does things at 100 miles an hour so he's going to make some mistakes. But his ball running out of dummy half coming out of our half is awesome and always puts us on the front foot.

Hmmmm. It's tough to drop a player who is a key part to the team but Widdop certainly isn't doing any favours for himself this year.

I'm really not sure what the right thing to do is. Maybe start Finch and Bring Widdop off the bench as an impact player.

Tohu Harris - 114 metres (most of any Storm forward), 37 tackles, 0 missed tackles, 0 errors, 0 penalties conceded. Total workhorse and another huge game. Great effort big fella! If it wasn't for George Burgess, Tohu would be rookie of the year at this stage. He looks better and better every week.

I'm almost getting to this stage too.

I don't know what Widdop was doing kicking on the first tackle when we had a scrum 20m out with 2 minutes to go... That killed me more than anything. Use the whole f*cking set and if you can't break the line, THEN put it up. FMD. Just un-Melbourne like. Rushing. Panicked. Trying to pull the trigger...

That loss has been coming for weeks. Pathetic effort.

This isn't the real O'Neill. He is clearly nervous about his jaw.

Doesn't look confident at all. Brought back too early maybe.

Carney would want at least $500k and I would rather us spend that money elsewhere to make the team better. Simple as that really. Don't see what Carney would offer us that Hampton, Mann, McGahan can't. We already have 3 dominate playmakers in the side, so whoever plays 5/8th for us next year will be...

Yea Bobby Blair was terrible in the halves last year. His utility value is there but he really isn't anything more than a depth centre/backrower. No way is he a must re-sign.
