So pissed off with some of the storm players in the falcons team

Curtis Scott tried to start 2 fights for literally no reason then completely bombed a try over the try line ...all he had to do was put it down and he he dropped it

Tino dropped a million balls

Harry who was the player of the game 99% of the games he played for the falcons Turns up and plays like shit
For 70 minutes literally all he did was fight with the ref ...it was so bad then he dropped a whole heap of balls gave away penalties and was genuinely just being a dick the whole game...I do think a few of the Tville players were giving him hell even rubbing him on the head and stuff but the way he was acting was just crap

The rest of the players weren’t much better

I reckon Easts might surprise them if they play like that again

Also Vete didn’t travel or play so not sure why he was named

Honestly thought Easts outplayed them for most of the game.

I am pleased Falcons won- they have been the better team all season. But goodness they have lost form in recent weeks, and left their run late today.

12 Storm players , and 11 finished on the field . Darryn Schonig was on the bench but I think just as part of normal rotation.

Pleasing that Nicho Hynes played his first game in weeks.

Possibly a touch off topic but I just discovered that Pat Kaufusi got the NSW cup minor premiership with the dragons. He was also part of the fg Storm minor premiership obviously and so, had he played for the Falcons instead of the tigers, could have gotten all three minor premierships. I wonder if it's been done...

Falcons playing absolute rubbish football today, and there's no way they'll be coming back in this one. Injuries and a ridiculously one-sided possession stat (5/7 completions vs 18/23, at half time!) haven't helped, but to only lose 1 game in the regular season and not make the GF is a massive disappointment.

Falcons been put to the clinic today. Pretty sure Burleigh had more repeat sets in the first half than the Falcons had complete sets. There were never in the game.

As soon as Murphy got injured the side had no direction.

What do you think happened , Sallymay? The Falcons were dominant for so long, then started to falter just before the finals, and never returned to that dominant form. A whole heap of Storm players yesterday, yet they were smashed. Very disappointing.
