We gave it a hell of a shake. Can't ask for more than that given the circumstances.

We clearly came out looking to blow them away. A couple fewer plod errors early and it might have even worked? Dare I say a good game plan @hineyrulz ?

Never easy losing outside backs and having to reshuffle. No doubt the Eels forum will be in meltdown but that was by and large a good performance. We're not Melbourne, so it's no surprise there were periods where they easily controlled the ruck and hurt us in the middle.

I thought that was better than 2017 cos we genuinely bothered them in attack all night.

Exactly the Storm are a who's who of the games biggest wankers and the Panthers only really have Luai in the ball park. Its just they have no fans on LU

Ill throw that gimp Naden in there

Olam lining him up in the GF will be glorious to watch

We had a massive crack and I’m proud of the effort, just a shame injuries and suspensions will have killed us going forward.

After we plodded it up i give us basically zero percent chance of getting through next week but the eels actually looked quite impressive but couldnt recover from the injuries. Could be looking at a HUGE preliminary show down of Eels v Panthers if the injuries dont completely derail the eels
