Considering the importance of the game, probably our biggest comp round game since the tigers 2009, it deserves an early thread…
Fair enough but don't you go messing with the game day thread!Considering the importance of the game, probably our biggest comp round game since the tigers 2009, it deserves an early thread…
Why were you betting on them last night?My top four bet with Sportsbet is still live. If we win it'll pay $400. The question now is how much to put on Melbourne. Merkins are only paying $1.60, and I lost $150 backing them last night.
Because I wanted them to lose. If they won last night my $400 top four win would be out of play.Why were you betting on them last night?
Well you know what they say...Because I wanted them to lose. If they won last night my $400 top four win would be out of play.
I see.Because I wanted them to lose. If they won last night my $400 top four win would be out of play.
This isn’t the same Storm side of yesteryears. Their bench is worse than ours and their backs are average outside of Olam and Coates. The biggest thing for me is no Cameron Smith. There’s no reason we can’t win this game.I reckon Storm will blow us to pieces. I hope I am wrong but they look so well organised.
But it may also be that I don't have enough faith in our sides consistency. The Storm you know will play great and if lost would be a real close dog fight. Whilst we can win or compete if we did get blown out by 30+ I doubt to many people would be shocked. If it was the other way around it would create headlines.
I disagree. It will be all about whoever concedes the least points.I think it will come down to whichever team scores the most points.
I guess we'll find out on the day.I disagree. It will be all about whoever concedes the least points.
And we've beaten them before / already this year.This isn’t the same Storm side of yesteryears. Their bench is worse than ours and their backs are average outside of Olam and Coates. The biggest thing for me is no Cameron Smith. There’s no reason we can’t win this game.
No changes needed. Hopefully we can keep this side together right up to the GF in 5 weeks.

Jake / Carty (depends how busted Moses is)
Makka is a prop. Will Brown replicate the job of a prop on rotation? Computer says no. If we dont use Jake, then August Carty offers more versatility. Brown misses out.Would like to see Nathan Brown instead of Makka.
f**ken what?! How the hell did you ever predict Laney would have a great season after watching him in the trials??Makka is a prop. Will Brown replicate the job of a prop on rotation? Computer says no. If we dont use Jake, then August Carty offers more versatility. Brown misses out.
The pieces have fallen into place for us to have one last chance at gaining a top 4 spot. It's up to us - simples. For all the bi-polar performances we've delivered this year (and in the past) this is a massive chance to right so many wrongs of deeds gone by.I reckon Storm will blow us to pieces. I hope I am wrong but they look so well organised.
