After such a great game against the Cowboys, The Storm will go in overwhelming favourites when they host their rival from the 1999 Grand Final the Dragons. It will be Melbourne (1st) v St George-Illawarra (16th) on the ladder. With Cooper Cronk set to miss, James Aubusson will come in with Cameron Smith probably set to play at No.7 . The early prediction is for Fine Conditions and 14 degrees. Lets hope a big crowd shows up and many people turn up to the members party at Vodafone Arena from 11.00am - 1.00pm . GO STORM!

If the backs are in the same mood as they were on Sunday we can put Jeff Lima at halfback and all he has to do is give them ball  :laugh: ok maybe not Lima but all the halves have to do is take the right options in who to pass the ball to, Smith has it covered.

Nothing like a Birthday Party to bring out the closet fans.

I hope Lotti you are not inferring I am a closet fan, because that I am certainly not, the only place I haven't been to see the Mighty Storm is New Zealand and that will happen! :D :D :D

of course not Bunnies, the closet fans are those that aren't members of the unofficial site or the official one for that matter, havent' been to games, not defended the team on forums of other teams.

For anyone without Foxtel and wants to watch a replay (Melbourne Viewers) , then set the recorders for 1.20am (Monday Morning) as this is the best time Channel Nine can show the game as a film such as Scary Movie seems to be more important to them.

Aubusson named new Storm No.7
Tuesday, June 19, 2007 - 4:17 PM

Melbourne coach Craig Bellamy has named James Aubusson to replace injured halfback Cooper Cronk for Sunday's NRL match against St George Illawarra.

Cronk is set to miss the next three matches after tearing a ligament in his right ankle in Saturday night's 58-12 romp over North Queensland.

His absence has provided an opening for Aubusson, who has played the majority of his eight matches this year off the bench.

The 20-year-old has spent most of his time at dummy half as relief for hooker Cameron Smith, but is now set to line up alongside the Queensland Origin rake.

Aubusson started two games at hooker when Smith was away in camp with the Queensland Origin team and was named man of the match on both occasions.

Sunday's Olympic Park match will be the first game Cronk has missed since assuming the No.7 jumper at the start of the 2006 season.

NSW prop Brett White and Maroons lock Dallas Johnson also return to the starting line-up after being rested for the game against the Cowboys.
