You'll get a brilliant game from the Storm this week Graham. I'm a little bit disappointed we sort of fell asleep in the second half and it shows from the speed of the game. The first half was blazing fast, passes flying, kicks all over, players scrambling for the ball, but the second half... boy, tackle after tackle after tackle, it was stop start for a good 20 minutes!!

Happy with the win, so much for Webcke and Civoniceva and their supposedly fast winger Tame Tupou. He had commendable effort in the few games he played last year (three or four tries I think, a couple were long range) but we showed that he's a very vulnerable winger. The first five tries were scored on his wing!!

Funny thing about the first four though, tries alternating between King and Geyer and Orford was shocking with the boot!!

if cam and ox had got their kicks would have been 60-4...but whos complaining?

did you mean leon bott TS?...coz he is damn fast....i know tame toupu is ok..but i think the fast one is that bott guy?

anyone catch the banner?what did it say?

also congrats on the crowd...for making alot of noise...i had my foxtel digital on the crowd audio while ox and cam were taking kicks and i could hear the magic hat song pretty clearly....and the cowbell was in full ring

I'll be watching it very shortly Thunderstruck. I can't wait! What a good win over another team who'd started well. The last Storm match broadcast over here in full was v the Dragons in Round 2. That was great to watch. This sounds even better.
Was Karmichael Hunt playing? How did he play compared to our Billy? KH seems to have had some stick from his coach for a poor start to the season. How did we deal with Darren Lockyer? I notice he got a try, did we wrap him up otherwise as he can be a dangerous guy!
Who was named as our MOM?

KH was pathetic today no impact on the game whatsoever

why dont you just go watch and find out ...hahah...

hunt didnt really get the ball to much..made a few mistakes but didnt look damaging at all.

lockyer ...well he didnt do really bad...but he was MIA for a fair bit of the game...but we contained them very well

Sounds like we dominated then.

What a great start to the season. Glad to see the attendance is growing. I wonder if I'll see any of you on the screen?
I hope we see the banner and lots of Storm colour!

more specifically, how good was his hit on thorn in the second half?

gotta love that scoreline, the best part is that i even got to see the game at a friends place - brissie channel nine had a replay at 7:30

Superb performance for most of the 80 minutes... couldn't ask for more here - all the Broncos and Lions fans in this house will be quiet for a while!

A while? Whats that until the early hours of tomorrow morning? - Your niece doesn't know the meaning of quiet.

The ones that don't live here are nice and quiet... most of them left to play hockey after the Storm smashed him in the first half

The Kidwell burst with the "Im gonna pass it left but flicks it right" is gotta be the try of the season to date no doubt.
Bronc forwards were big/mean /and there to do the business but sh#*"t they went nowhere. A smaller pack outplayed the big boys.
The look of bewilderment on Thorns face at game end spoke heaps.
The force is with us maintain the rage guys.

That try by Kidwell was like something out of a Harleem Globetrotter game...
It was totally outrageous, but sooooo Melbourne Storm circa 2005...
I'm sooo totally high on Storm fever at the moment!
