f**k knows.. If the storm turn up like they did against Tigers they could be looking at 3 losses on the trot...

But yeah storm by 4

storm

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Storm but we'll put up a fight.

 

[Clifferd]

Storm won’t go 3 losses on the trot

Agreed Newy will put up a fight though

Storm 28-14

 

[Spau]

Knights playing well, but feel like the win against the Broncos took a bit out of them. Storm need a win and will get one here I would think

 

[moffla]

I just don't know anymore. I'll tip us but not with a whole lot of confidence.

The one positive I have from our losses is that they haven't been thrashings, and have been on the back of our stupid mistakes. Mistakes that can be ironed out. However if we play like we did against the Tigers (again), Knights will punish us.

Storm by 8

 

[Vic Mackey]

Can’t see the storm playing that badly 3 weeks in a row. Knights will stay in it but a late penalty will see the storm home 18-10

 

[GongPanther]

Storm by 38-14.

 

[Das Gupta]

Strom by 2.

 

[Noname36]

Despite the fact that Melbourne are our bitches I can’t seem them losing again.

 

[ed-grimley]

Storm appear to have lost their way somewhat but will sleaze a win.

 

[mozza91]

Will give it fair shake. Melbourne will have abit too much class though.

 

[9701]

Both my big head and little head agree that hopefully we beat the salary cap cheating merkins

 

[Valheru]

Knights are greatly improved this season but I don't see too many away wins in them. They have already got one in Canberra, I don't think the same will occur in Melbourne

[Buzzard Breath]

Storm.

 

[perverse]

If we bring the same attitude that we brought in for Brisbane then I can actually see us winning this game. The Storm haven't found their stride yet.

Storm probably still more likely, you have to assume they'll come good at some point... but this should be a real cracker of a game if we can match Melbourne for effort and the %1ers.

 

[GongPanther]

After that issue with Bennett,the Storm players might be exausted from all the laughter during the week. Maybe the Knights by 50.

 

[TheFrog]

The Storm have not missed the finals since having their points stripped 8 years ago, and have only missed the top 4 once in that time. Cronk is gone. Smith and Slater are approaching 35. The younger blokes aren't in the same class. It's been a tremendous run, but now it is finally ending. Hope it was fun.

By the way, they'll probably win this.
