NSW: Anthony Minichiello, Matt King, Mark Gasnier, Matt Cooper, Timana Tahu, Braith Anasta, Andrew Johns, Jason Ryles, Danny Buderus (capt), Luke Bailey, Nathan Hindmarsh, Craig Fitzgibbon, Ben Kennedy.

Interchange: Steve Simpson, Craig Gower, Andrew Ryan, Steve Menzies.

Only changes are the hopelessy over rated (and even more so than Anasta) Tahu for Rooney and Gower for Wing.

The Storm are going to have to deal with a very fired up Mark O'Meley on Saturday.

Tim-tam Tahu. Haven't seen anything flash or above average from him this year to deserve selection.

It's Shrek's second week back and he's been good in both apparently. Plus he's been there and done it before. If he is fit, he should be the first prop picked

That Michael Hagan, he needed Johns back in his NRL team soon, so he used his Queensland connection to get Johns back up fit and ready to play at the Queensland academy of something, only to engineer the downfall of Hagan's Maroons shortly after :evil:

Huge shock for Slater... a bit harsh I would say, but he'll have a point to prove against the Dogs this week.

Oh well, I'll still support the downfall of the scumbag-led Blues.

Bitter sweet I'm sure for all us Stomers. For one, you know Bill will be hurting for sure but on the other hand, I hope that he dusts himself off and puts in a blinder this weekend.......as long as we can stop the rampaging Shrek and Sherwin's kicking game.

I watched the Crims match last night against Manly and both Anasta and Ryan put in blinders but still plenty of good young kids. At least now, we might just have a chance against the Doggies.
