All Meaney had to do was drop on the ground. Nah… sit up and get dragged back in goal.

Harry Grant is so poor tonight, maybe the worst I’ve ever seen him play. Everyone looking for an easy option, only Katoa and Nelson want to go to war.

Papenhuyzen back on the bench? Good idea Bellamy it’s not like we need some X-Factor or attacking threat.

Young playing a week too long it seems. Gamble has finally backfired

Another Young T defensive masterclass.

Of course Walsh acts like a complete flog only to immediately score. The footy gods can be really cruel sometimes.

Time off, we have a captains challenge.

Only joking, not allowing you to challenge.

Munster used to be one of the better defensive halves in the comp. Not so much the last few seasons.

Would be nice if Meaney tried to stop tries at the very least

Another Tonumaipea targeted try.

Is Bellamy going to wear some responsibility for this debacle?

That’s 3 tries from bad Tonumaipea defence now.

Is it the coach and his selections or is it the players. We can't be this bad. We finished third and we look like we are making up the numbers.

Today I was describing the Storm season to non league fans. I said they have played pretty crap all year.
Their response was ‘but they finished third didn’t they’.

The most criminal part of this is we just haven’t throw anything at them in attack, some of the most pedestrian predictable sets, we are 5 hit ups barely making half way kick long and wait for an error, there’s no X-Factor no one looking to break it open, has Harry had a scoot to get over the advantage line? Look at that half break from Papenhuyzen it was electric then Meaney kills the shift left like he has never played a game of footy before and Munster puts in an over cooked bomb for a 7 tackle set, we are a mess. Not a single line break tonight.
