Not according to Fox League. They have us playing the Chickens! But I guess it comes down to who wins and who loses and by how much etc!

Believe me, if there was we would have seen it 20 times by now.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately

Neither have I. The only thing I've seen is Trindall doing two chip kicks and in one of them NAS runs through and swipes at him but misses the guy completely.

Pretty poor but they have time constraints I guess.

Here it is apparently – it was a late tackle and not a tackle on the kicker as the referee was referring too:

It was 4th or 5th tackle and he pushed after the pass but I can't recall how far back

I just watched the NAS 'hit' again - there is absolutely nothing in it - as I recalled, it was just a push in the back just after the ball had been passed, and the Sharks player got straight up without complaint. Not even penalty-worthy - ridiculous that it's on report.

Guess you could call it lazy from the big fella but it’s nothing.

I wanted to see a big game from paps, a more dominate display and that’s what he showed he looked much more dominate and threatening with the ball in hand.

I think this game sums up who’s fullback next week.

Any news on B smith going off early and limping a little? I hope it’s nothing serious and his ready to go next week.

NAS should certainly not miss any games for that.. come on. That’s actually pathetic how he was put on report for that..

Hopefully addo Carr and Jennings are good to go next week. Addo Carr would be 50/50 though.

Don't think Josh will be fit for next week. Hopefully, George is and if Fox isn't Lumelume gets picked ahead of Ieremia.

Considering the side fielded, the boys did good to wrap up the minor and get the win. Now to the real season!
The next 2-3 weeks will be an actual gauge of where the teams at

Fox Sports wouldn't have a clue what's going on at the Storm. Both the boys will be going to hell and back to be ready to play next week. Craig won't make a call until late next week I'd say!

No, fox are reporting they're "in doubt"...... Big difference....
Nice try though.
