I'm going to practice my tackling all day just in case. 1 year olds are equivalent to NRL standard right?

Just don’t go near the head or you’ll be put in the corner

Geez, tough run of injuries. Will take a special effort from everyone to fill so many big gaps.

Geez, two days ago the Raiders were paying $6.50 for the win, now $3.75. Teams might almost start even.
I hope the team gets on board and Johns goes out and slays them.

Could we not bring in Murphy or Mullen from our Q Cup sides for a second half?

Cooper replaces Jahrome. Tom replaces Kenny.
Trent Loiero and Aaron Booth play their second games off the bench with Aaron Pene 18th man.

Terrible start. I guess we kind of need some of these missing players. :(

No urgency from Hynes in the lead up to the first try and no one backing him up when he’s stuck at marker on the second.

But but Hynes is the next Papenhuyzen. He said so

Honestly, if Munster or Hughes are out there the Storm are winning this game by at least eight at half-time.

Halves have been... Average? That being said - at least Chris Lewis is running straight and trying to give the ball off to his backs. Don’t mind what I’ve seen from him.

Feel like we should be involving Olam and JAC more. Get them sneaking up the middle with speed and power like in the lead up to the first try and we’ll cause more damage.
