2025 R9 MAGIC Sun - Melbourne 18-20* Canberra @ Suncorp

Is that Isaiah brother ?

It’s Isaah. He’s from Penrith, his parents couldn’t afford the second “I”.

Good to see the Storm lose it like that for once

Even though every bounce still went Melbourne's way - aside from the brilliance from Weekes.

Melbourne self destructed with the ball. Canberra are just built different this year. Grit, determination, and willing to do the hard work so often wins over the SuPeRsTaRs. Oh how I wish all of my mob with play with that sort of passion.

 

[The Man Shake]

Cost me a tip in the tipping comp but that was great to see the Storm get beaten like that.

I tipped the Raiders yeaaahhhhh.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

I’m bewildered because I only watched the last 15 minutes and just saw one of the most egregious attempts I’ve ever seen by a referee to ensure a team wins, but the thread is full of Raiders fans whinging. Sutton deadset decided the Storm weren’t allowed to play the ball.

Trent Loiero is a complete liability. For all the good he does, he wastes it with drop balls and stupid f**king penalties.

Could have been any player , he was just wrong place wrong time

 

[Pound Cake]

The fact that their ill discipline lost them the game warms my heart

It's about f**king time

 

[Someguy]

Credit to Starling. Twice drawing a penalty in defence on his own line with niggle knowing that any escalation will see penalty go with the defence so it doesn’t result in points

Four times.

Ahhh I f**king love rugby league. I'm still jumping off the walls

 

[moffla]

Four times.

Yep. If it were just that one moment I’d have been more forgiving.

 

[Panther Mike]

Lol at Loiero. Pretty much did everything wrong he could in the last few minutes to lose his team the game, although credit to Canberra for taking advantage. I definitely didn't rate them at the start of the season but I've been forced to eat humble pie. Probably won't lose many to Origin teams so great chance of top 4 finish.

 

[skeepe]

We absolutely got in their heads. That’s how we won it in the end.

You could see after Timoko scored, all Coates and Munster wanted to do was sledge and yell at Starling. That was reflected in how they carried themselves when the pressure was on.

The refereeing was horrid but I’ve learned in here Storm fans aren’t allowed to complain in here

 

[Evil_Mush]

Love to see the grubbiness come back to haunt them

Couldn't happen to a better team

 

[Apey]

Credit to Starling. Twice drawing a penalty in defence on his own line with niggle knowing that any escalation will see penalty go with the defence so it doesn’t result in points

Should be a standard play in the hooker handbook.

 

[mongoose]

Probably some tough penalties against Liero... I would be fuming if I was a Storm fan. It's nice to see them get a raw deal sometimes though.

A lot going the Raiders way this season, we're now 7-2 and probably won't have many involved in Origin so top 4 is very attainable.

You are the danger
