Round 2 - Storm vs Warriors @ AAMI Park

[Papenhuyzen23]

Getting absolutely hammered here, we looked gassed 2 minutes into the half I’m not sure why we came out so flat but there is no energy. Need a big lift or we will get rolled here.

Oooooh Harry

Salt in the wounds there

[nacho]

Quick take off our biggest forward and chuck on a utility player! Masterstroke

[Papenhuyzen23]

Maybe the Panthers game took it out of us, never thought I’d say this about a Bellamy team early in the season but we look unfit, we legitimately look like we can’t go with them and have looked it all half.

[Papenhuyzen23]

What did I just witness?

SERIOUSLY!!!!

[blazza18]

Legitimately one of the all timers from Coates that.

[riders of the storm]

That was unbelievable. The guys has absolutely no business winning that.

Although they’ve had their ups and downs this win really shows why Bellamy has instilled so much confidence in Coates and Papenhuyzen. They’re match-winners.

Where do we rank that in the club’s comeback wins with seconds to go?

Storm vs Bulldogs 2006, Storm vs Sharks 2012, Broncos vs Storm 2008…

[Papenhuyzen23]

The best finish to a game I’ve seen in all my years following the sport, you can’t do it any more dramatically than that, boys played until the last seconds what a fight back when we looked dead and buried, on ya boys very impressed with the ticker

[Kettles]

What a way to from $0.00 to $450.00 in an instant.

Ive had Storm to win which looked shot until ....

Coates scored the freak try of the decade, maybe, and the chockies in the bag.

Ryan Papenhuyzen/Xavier Coates/Will Warbrick @ 7.50

Happy, happy days.

[Lennart Bedrager]

Wow! Not a great game, but an all time great finish!
Good to see Coates throw his whole body at that, I've watched it a dozen times, simply amazing!

[TC]

Coates try was amazing. Paps try a minute before was spectacular.


But the 38 minutes before that was some of the worst football I have ever seen from Storm.

[yourhero]

What. A. Finish.

[yourhero]

Much like the game against the Sharks a few years ago, that second half was putrid and I was sure we were done.

After the excellent defensive effort of last week, I was disappointed to find myself thinking this is going to be another one of those years. Perhaps premature, but it crossed my mind.

Love that the boys didn’t give up though.

[Papenhuyzen23]

I actually think Wishart coming on turned the game, he made some great runs and got us rolling a few times, makes me think a guy like Sua late in the game might be absolutely lethal too.
