Match Discussion: Round 18 vs Melbourne @ AAMI Park

[Loose Cannon]

They probably see an incredible fit trainer. And refuse to acknowledge he's not very good in game situations when it comes to pure football.

There is a reason “Try Hard” is a burn. Apparently talent is not considered.

 

[Generalzod]

Anyway every club in the NRL have an equal footing..

 

[K-Man]

I love our ability to turn attacking kicks into line breaks and tries for the opposition. We've been doing it for years, welcome to the club Jake.

 

[Seage]

We must have the record for long range tries conceded off our own attacking kicks.

 

[perverse]

Barnett has had a shit year, by the way. All of the bad, with very little of the good from him.

 

[macavity]

Here’s a fun exercise

run through Melbourne’s squad and estimate who is earning less than Mann and Fitzgibbon.

 

[Jono078]

I had one hope going into this game, play well enough to be within Storms average of 36.5 points for and 12.1 points against. Should have known they'd easily outdo their average against us.

Will still somehow get player of the year narrowly ahead of Kurt Mann.

 

[perverse]

Was that not technically a shoulder charge from Fitz there? Whatever the f**k, i'll take it.

 

[perverse]

We are definitely missing Dan and Pearce out there tonight. Our direction is shit. Our intensity in the middle is shit. Mann is shit. Fitz is shit. Everything is just shit shit shit.

 

[Yosh]

Lucky Watson is still shipping around. After tonight, I think he'll just resign with us because no offers came in elsewhere haha.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

First time I've turned off a game. Rugby test is on.

Warm up the 50 thread

Or does he take minimum wage elsewhere just to leave this circus?

 

[K-Man]

You have to question AOB's inability to get the intensity and attitude right from the opening minute in a game where you know your opposition will make you pay for anything less than perfection. I'm afraid this game says a lot about how the team is prepared.

 

[Yosh]

Sure Nicho was tackled there, his ball arm was on the ground.

 

[slotmachine]

So dumb.

100%. I better not hear any excuses about the preparation of the week in the post-game conference. Everyone's in the same boat.

Can the storm catch the clock?

 

[Jono078]

Where's Brodie Jones at? There's some pretenders out there. Good a time as any to hook them and say not good enough.

Or is this AOB's punishment by leaving them out there.
