The commentating was worse.
And a boo back to those Canberra supporters who conveniently forgotten about their previous misdemeanours.

I'm reading stories that it was a pretty hairy night for the Storm fans in attendance. Raiders fans were chanting cheats at them & waving $50 notes at the players and fans.
Sounds juicy!

Been to Canberrra a few times and found they were a great bunch of supporters. Even after losing a final to us.
And that Dugan "No" try was a deadset try. The refs are a disgrace.

I think a few of the players, mainly Blair, have now adopted a "who cares" type of attitude...and are getting a little more reckless which is a real shame to see.

I think the journos are all having a Danny Williams retro moment,but Jeff & Adam are much much scarier,though the naked aggression & mongrel factor is there ;-)
They,along with Whitey, have always pushed the boundary,but now the refs & journos aren't seeing it as old style "Bring back the Biff" stuff.They are seeing it in a negative "Storm don't give a shit" way. :?
BTW - I spent the weekend in beautiful downtown Wallace,so didn't see the game.
Saw G.I's 3rd on Sunday morning news - THAT HAD TO HURT :hypno: but the only way to protect himself was to drop the ball & there was no way in hell he was going to do that.
Playing for no points = no interest of commitment ? PIGS ARSE !!

Just have to turn up in strength,(hint - BRING FRIENDS),to the Thunderdome for Storm's next game & show what we their fans feelMelbourne coach Craig Bellamy shrugged off the slander from Canberra fans.
"We can't control that, all we can do is control what we do on the field, and what we do during the week," he told reporters.
"It's probably not pleasant (for the players) but ... there's not much use worrying about it."

I was at the game, and I personally didn't see any crowd behavior that I was concerned about. The players got booed - heckled when they came out to warm up -but also warmed up at the end where a lot of storm supporters were sitting - so got a bit of love too. Plenty of storm supporters amongst the crowd (ie not Melbourne drive ins) which I have noticed before - and as a fan, felt comfortable walking around etc.
Did have a 'colourful" guy sitting near us yelling all sort of stuff about the team, but also turning on his own players - so we know what sort of supporter his was.
When Greg scored the last try - to put them out of the game the 'Cheaters" chant went up - there was only 5 mins to go.
Canberra is a friendly ground - there is no way I would go to Parra or Manly as a fan.
Re the commentary - I thought it was good - no salary cap team can't be beaten crap.

We live to play, we play to win, We try and try, we won’t say die, we won’t give in
agree Stormsally - was a good atmosphere and a good game.
Only cr*p moment was the heckling and abuse when the boys walked off the field.
My wife was standing right in the middle of the raiders supporters and wondered why I didn't come across.....
We were seated behind the $50 note wavers. This only happened when the interchange players were warming up.
Didn't worry Lima
we should have done more to pick up those $50 notes given it to the Salvo collectors.
thought Greg's third try was funny - was saying he won't shave for a week!
watched the replay today and wondered why there wasn't a trench in the ground where his face went!
Anyway we won and thats that!
