Moving on.

I think that's our strongest team we have had all year. Hope Craig sticks with it.

Ok I'm sorry too then, I've been overreacting but it's cos so many people seem to be picking on Cherry simply because he's a Manly supporter.
Trolls are one thing & I'll delete some posts without warning but Cherry's mostly ok ;)

Just blame my old lady grumpiness :lol:

Haha once you get past Cherry being a manly supporter he isn't to bad. Be good if he gave us some inside info though ;). Care to share cherry ?

Looks like it might be a big crowd No GA seats Best cat 1 right up the back and cat 2 the same. Could be a big one they were saying last time we played it was 21000+ hope it’s bigger and purpler! GO STORM! Just like big Kev I’m excited.

only changes i would make to top 17 would be vave in for lowe (though lowe is still up to standard) and KP starting for sika (makes it a huge bench)

both talented teams across the field but i think our spine will give us the edge to win by 6

Yep, out for the GF as well should we progress. A real shame for him and also for the team as he's been great for us this season.

How obvious is it that the Sydney media is trying to rock the boat with these "stories" over the past couple of weeks? It's not going to work. We're far too professional to fall for something like that.

Cherry_Poppins, will you be gracing us with your presence this Friday night?

Bellyache should have given Ryles a break during the year instead of playing him for every game between R2-R25. At his age (he will be 34 in January next year) and with dodgy hamstrings, I'm surprised he got through this far before something happened.

Nevertheless, he has been a terrific buy for the club (probably in the top 5 props we've had in the history of the Storm) and I hope this doesn't push him into retirement as he has signed on for next year.
