JT picking Sims as MOTM is a bit of a joke (although he was better than usual) - Moeroa was just as good as Sims, if not better, with less minutes.

Wishart should've rated a mention.

Deserved the sin bin on at least 2 of the 3 reports. Should buy himself a lotto ticket with how lucky he was not to be binned

He didn’t need “luck”. He had a Klein up his sleeve.

Having seen the highlights, he could have easily been reported for the high shot on the Smith try too

Just watching the replay as I didn’t see it live. It came up on the screen very early in the match the Justin Olam is on report. But he nrl site says no Storm players are on report. Anyone know anything about this?

How good was Moeroa's first run when he came back on in the second half?

Storm should be lodging a formal complaint about Klown after this match. The shoulder on McDonald not earning a sin bin was an absolute joke.

It was a light shoulder charge or high tackle from memory. They didn't put it on report until 1-2 sets later. He'll be fine

Anyway, good to see another younger guy given a shot. Not sure if anyone outside of Sua has really earnt it but I am excited nonetheless.
Craig at the post match presser said Elie and Will were both injured at training on Wednesday. No one asked him if they will be ok next week. Let’s hope so - Elie in particular is a key player .

Wowzers!

Saturday just got hella interesting…

Scenario 1: Warriors and Panthers both win.
1. Panthers
2. Broncos
3. Warriors
4. Storm

Scenario 2: Panthers win, Warriors lose.
1. Panthers
2. Broncos
3. Storm
4. Warriors

Scenario 3: Warriors win, Panthers lose.

4. Storm

Scenario 4: Both lose

In scenario 3, forget about Warriors winning by 80 and Panthers losing by 80 - that ain’t happening.

Being able to play Penrith without it being an elimination game wouldn’t be terrible for sure
