Maybe some good natured heckles along the lines of, "Where do ya insert the batteries??" will be aimed at poor Storm Man on Monday
Perhaps Storm is looking at a sponsorship deal with a condom manufacturer for 2008?

It was still there..........Boo to Storm for forcing that hideous thing on us. Had fingers crossed that it would have gone away and just been a bad, bad memory........ :'(

if we all complain to them we may have a chance but if only a few voice their disgust we have to live with it.

Maybe if they read this thread, surely it will convince them to give us back the old Storm Man costume? ;-)

Okay - here's your chance people! Let the club now what we think of both the "new improved" Storm Man or the reduction of dark blue in our colours.

Sign the online petition at: http://www.petitiononline.com/ms200707/petition.html and let's get this thing changed!

there's also the inner sanctum before the Broncos game, I could always go to training this week and voice my opinion in person again did that at the instore when I told Cactus that the Bai Stand doesn't care for the new costume.

Oh shlt I should have read the letter before adding my real name to the petition ... or else this "As members, fans or supporters of the Melbourne Storm Rugby League Football Club" needs to be changed to "As members, fans or supporters of the Melbourne Storm Rugby League Football Club or busybodys who feel the need to have their say on clubs they don't support"

Sorry Christa - can't change the petition now! :) You're officially a Melbourne Storm member, fan or supporter! So which is it? :)

I never thought I'd warm to BOOM the other mascot, but I have since they kept trotting out that ugly pink Storm(wo)man outfit.

As a lurker on this site I can only add the new Storm Man costume should really be in the Mardi Gra's and we know where. Where is the summersulting opposition butt kicking scooter riding Macho Storm man we had. The new offering is Batman's mate working on a floral arrangement. Its just not the fit. :o :o :o

BOOM does not and will NOT grow on me!
That thing (whatever it's meant to represent) is absolute crap in my opinion. He/she/it has a limp crappy thunderbolt that is in some desperate need of viagra. The costume is so cumbersome that whoever is in it, can hardly move around anywhere. The arms are stuck in the one permanent position. It comes out every home game to do the same stupid dance to the same stupid music, and makes it way about 20 metres around the fence before disappearing till the next home game.
And Storm Man and his horrible helmet head costume are nothing like the Storm Man of old. Geez - I don't think they even have a motor on his pathetic scooter anymore. And why that colour costume? It's nothing like our team colours that the boys wear out on the ground. Wouldn't it make sense to actually match the colours a bit more? I dunno - what's the world comng too? Sheesh!

Speaking to storm man at the raiders game he said that they are replacing the helmet urgently ..... In my (not very) humble opinion that would be like trying to polish a turd, it still going to be a turd.
