Storm: Premiership centre Brenko Lee is set to return after missing round one with a hamstring injury. If Lee returns then Reimis Smith or Jennings would make way.
Parramatta made 15 errors in their win over Brisbane. If they can't get that down into single figures, the extra sets they'll give the Storm are likely to prove to big of a hurdle to overcome.

Based on what? Their game against the Broncos was hardly anything to write home about.

Parra Doesn't Matter won't be much of a threat to us if we play like we did during the first half last week. But if we build a lead early then make stupid errors like last week, we can expect Parra to punish us. Also, we are guaranteed to be handed more biased commentary on both Fox and Nine since we are playing another NSW team.
Yes, the level of bias on the tv is amazing isn't it. I listen to the game with the sound down. Even last week, both channels were blowing up that the hit on Jérôme Hughes when he kicked the ball shouldn't have been a penalty. fair dinkum. We actually need Melbourne based commentators . Fox should have a click on Melbourne commentary button. And there should be someone like Sandon Earl or Robbie Kearns doing a commentary version for Storm fans.
Nicho Hynes, Cooper Johns, Darryn Schonig and Dean Ieremia added to last week's 17.
Brenko Lee hopeful of return from injury in round 4.
Congratulations Jesse Bromwich on becoming the 6th player to play 250 games for Storm.

I often listen to the ABC radio commentary with the 9 or Kayo pictures.
Have a look at the attached little lifehack and kiss Phool Gould and Braindead Alexander goodbye forever.

We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately

That''s a really interesting stat. All those other clubs brag about their history and the great names that have played for them. Bet most league fans wouldn't realise how well we have done at developing and keeping our key players rather than just poach and discard players as their form fluctuates.
I hope Jesse goes on to join the 300 game club as a one-club player.
A few years ago when John Sutton played his 300th game, I was shocked to find out that he was the first player to play 300 games with the South Sydney Rabbitohs. Nathan Merritt is second with 218 games.
