Sorry I have to call you out on that comment... mate if you're a true fan then you'd be watching the game. Even if Storm were playing on a cow paddock in rural Bangladesh against Shitkickers RLFC at 3:00am I'd still be watching

Their wingers are lethal try scorers too. I’m just hoping the pack comes out firing and tries to get the ascendancy early.
I thnk our boys will fire up! Nicho is a big out for them, they really rely a lot on him in attack. We have the luxury of having 3-4 strike players in our spine.

Paps will be better for last week's run, and Meaney should slot into 5/8 ok.
Our edge defence is pretty suspect at the moment, but the wet weather should help us there.

The BIG issue is our forwards. If they play like they did last week we're stuffed. In particular our captain needs to step up and lead by example.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately

We're 1-17. Nikorima is 18th man.

Chris Lewis with the first kick of the night. Don't think that would have been in Craig's game plan.

Is anyone watching channel nine? Gus has apparently said the same thing four times. Anyone heard and know what it is?

This is the worst ive seen for a very long time. We look like we dont want to be there. Nned to make some changes in the forward pack - getting dominated every week.

Seems the team isn't as close knit as it once was. No enthusiasm at all.

I'd say the Dolphin-three are harming moral as well as big cock Smitb

Well, this will be the first time that I've turned off before half time since the Storm vs Roosters GF.
