[Vic Mackey]

Is Slater back or is he going to sit it out so he doesn’t get embarrassed by Ponga?

 

[Das Gupta]

Knights by a point. Storm have been hot and cold all year.

 

[David brown]

Yeah I think the Knights will get up here, Melbourne not travelling well this year...

 

[moffla]

We are looking hot and cold be we are one win off the top 4, which just goes to show the standards we set for ourselves. I still think we are more than capable of beating the Knights - particularly if we produce what we did in the second half on Sunday.

18-14 storm

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Another game we'll need Pearce to get up..

Storm by 8

 

[GongPanther]

Knights by 34. Frilly Slater to get sent off for being the prick that he is. Chambers to provide some hearty lolz.

 

[TheFrog]

Storm not half the side they were last year but still have been putting lesser sides away pretty regularly. The Knights forwards at home will cart it up all day into the teeth of the bigger, stronger and more skilful Storm pack.

 

[OzDragon]

Ponga to kick a goal from the sideline after the 80th minute to win 22-20.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Storm by 10

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Storm by 2.

 

[ed-grimley]

Storm to win even though their form has been inconsistent.

 

[Dave_]

Knights by 1 Ponga

 

[matrightyeh]

storm in close one

 

[Maroon4life]

Knights will get blown away.

Storm 18+

 

[kneegrow]

Lol @ Knights

Storm by 50

 

[stormbati]

Slater and Cheyse Blair drop out. if the Storm forwards are fair dinkum Storm should win.

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Can a Knights supporter tell me why is Brock Lamb being kept out of First Grade by Jack Cogger?

Even more bewildering when we know as well that he will be playing with the Bulldogs next year.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Bwaif can't even read out a team sheet
