Of all the teams to meet in week 1 of the finals I think we couldn't have been luckier. If we can put 80 minutes of solid footy together we've got the bunnies sorted, no question.
Meanwhile I hope the Bulldogs and Manly bash one another into submission. Broncs are always scarey come finals, and both Sharks and Raiders know how to beat us.

Bring it on !!!! GO STORM !!!!!!!

Be a very tough game this one.

If the Rabbits big forwards get a roll-on could be a long night, especailly when Luke comes on.

Positive for us is the composure of Cronk & Smith. If we win it will be down to a try in the last few minutes I reckon

So besides the 17 players that will run out for the Storm on Saturday night there will be three former Storm players opposing us, our former assistant coach, our former head trainer and just so they aren't left out we have a former Storm player as touchie.

and all the media can talk about is gi.What happened to all the negative press that gi got when he was playing for us.It seems like he is the flavor of the month now that he plays for a sydney side.It seems that they aren`t giving us any chance(or hoping we don`t have a chance).

We wondered where you was :lol:

Was the smashfest as good to watch 'in the flesh' or was you dis-interested ???

O WELL - Our 80 minutes of honesty awaits 8)

Yes, yes it was! Having access to a corporate box was even better.

Please be defeating Souths now, keen to see Melbourne, Manly and North Qld fighting for one spot between them.

They should not give Greg Inglis ONE opportunity for a kick return. Not one... Unless we are in the attacking zone and have the opportunity to put in an attacking kick or look for a repeat set, EVERY other kick should be either over the sideline (inside Souths 20m) or kicked dead.

If you give him the opportunity to return the ball, more often than not he will make it past the 20m line easily. Or worse yet, make solid ground and get his forwards on the front foot for a dominant set. I will gladly give up 20m to ensure Inglis's impact is strictly limited.
