Tyran Wishart takes on the role of 18th man today.
Dean, unfortunately, drops out of our squad with a hamstring injury.
Nick Meaney will take his place on the wing.

We've been having a ton of issues coming out of our own half if the Dogs aren't giving us a piggy back with a penalty. Been a really average start to the season from the starting pack imo.

Massive improvements so far, I say this as Coates runs the length of the field. His knocks for coming in on defense can be put to rest, that's why he does it. He creates opportunities.

Really enjoying today's performance so far just keep the foot on the throat. Even though Bulldogs look like a pack of park footballers.

Hope for JAC’s sake he can turn it around at the Dogs but he must get bored as hell being wasted there atm.

Papenhuyzen moved into the top 20 try scorers for storm (now 19th and only one behind Waqa) and 10th highest point scorer (Marcus Bai drops to 11th) all time for us tonight

Amazing how quickly Pappy has achieved these stats.

Imagine where he'd sit if he hadn't had those concussion issues...

Nice to see Paps look and play like Paps again.

Another sneaky positive yesterday was Harry playing the full 80 (even though 10 were at halfback). Even as one of his bigger advocates I've not seen him as the type of player who can do that week in week out so something to watch there moving forward.

Unsurprisingly .....Munny's match day Report for alleged knees to the side of Dufty appears to have been thrown out by the Judiciary
Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time

Mattpoet Papenhuyzen also moved to 5th on the Storm goal scorers list. Passing Nicho Hynes (62 goals) and Craig Smith (61 goals).
