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’s...

Re: Round 1 vs Panthers @ AAMI Park
Interesting points from the coach in the post-match: - Bellamy was really unhappy with the handling (almost seemed a bit miffed despite the win). - Impressed with Pezet. Noted he’s intelligent but wanted him to work on his defence in the off-season. Was pleased with his efforts. - Unsure if Munster ...

Re: Round 1 vs Panthers @ AAMI Park
That was such a Storm win. Just gritty, committed and brutal.
So impressed.

Re: Trials 2024
Hughes looks good. Very good.
Really sleek holding up his passes and putting guys into gaps.

Re: Trials 2024
Not sure who’s watching but the Storm are up 12-0. A lot of the starters were pulled just before the 20-minute mark and the replacements put on a really nice try to Coates soon afterwards. Few observations: - Hughes and Katoa combined for a beauty. That combination looked good late last season and c...

Tele reporting the Storm have signed Blore for next season.

Re: 2024 - How are we shaping up?
Let’s say for arguments sake the locked up spots are 1. Papenhuyzen 2. Coates 3. 4. 5. Warbrick 6. Munster 7. Hughes 8. Asofa-Solomona 9. Grant 10. 11. Katoa 12. 13. King 14. 15. 16. 17. What are the options? 2 centre spots to share between - Reimis Smith - Justin Olam - Kane Bradley - Marion Seve ...

Re: Official thread and signing news
In days gone, we had our superstar spine, a strong but underrated pack, a number of young guns pushing for first grade and supplemented by a couple of journey men / outcasts. In light of what Penrith have done I wonder how Cameron Smith, Cooper Cronk and the Club as a whole will view their collecti...

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium
Pretty bad way to end the year but about halfway through the season I thought the Storm were little chance of making the top four let alone the prelim. I think the club badly needs to invest in a strike centre and another prop. The pack simply isn’t good enough - they’re hard working but they lack i...

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium
Amazing amount of publicity calling our pack "Soft" or "Pop Gun" and weak. You would have to expect some sort of response from this or careers are over Bellamy would be absolutely loving this. For anyone who’s read Storm Cloud, he would definitely be using this to motivate his f...

Re: Preliminary Final vs Panthers @ Accor Stadium
Early mail is Luai will be back but Tago (who tormented the Storm in that first game in Melbourne earlier this year) might sit out. That would see Garner potentially move into the centres or Peachey. Hopefully Hughes is back. Their defence is phenomenal and it’ll take a lot to crack them. I have fai...

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: Round 27 - Rest and Blood players
More of that from Sims please. The great thing about where the side currently is (and how I feel Bellamy treats his selections) is every one of those guys went out there on Friday night wanting to show they could crack the 17 for next weekend. Sims was probably the most evident of this. Also - Nikor...
