Lol what. Billy??

 

[Wb1234]

Storm played only one half of footy

So weird they would fall asleep in a grand final especially with Brisbane down by two key players

Munster/hughes/grant did nothing second half

 

[hineyrulz]

When did Bellamy leave? This is news to me.

When Scam Smith did.

Hasn’t won a thing without him or cheating.

 

[moffla]

I’m absolutely shattered. We butchered it, choked once again in the big one. This one will sting more than most, we had no right to lose that game after our first half.

Can’t take anything away from Brisbane…they must have the best half time talk in the world.

Reynolds has a Thurston moment, asking the Qld Premier to build a bigger stadium in Brisbane.

Lol what. Billy??

Instrumental in the win against your mob

 

[blaza88z]

Yeah Billy, they said you were only the side because of daddy but not this season, you absolutely deserved to be in the side

 

[Bazal]

I reckon that's class AF from Reynolds tbh. And a nice little way to acknowledge that Kevvie might be a bit of a potato, but in reality he did get Brisbane 90% of the way there after Seibald dragged them down to Parra/Dargons/Tigers/Knights territory.

I was thinking Kelly Country

I was thinking a certain clown from Maccas was missing his shoes

Tarocash are usually tight fitting

Mate...

I love Rubgy League. Our entertainment was embarrassing.

No shame in it. Our code needs to do way better and that's the story.

Yeah, agree. Entertainment has seriously been shit.

Teddy Swims FFS?

Even the AFL Grand Final: breaking Snoop Dogg out of retirement was only slightly better.

Are you seriously telling me that there are no modern Australian Artists that could have performed??

Scotty Morrison?

My man, for a Storm fan you go ok...and I think in a week or so you will realise that this post actually acknowledges it wasn't a penalty.

Because foul play preventing a try doesn't result in no try, penalty.

It was nothing.

the point is they are meant to get nit picky and apply the rules in these situations, they look 26 times to determine separation. Incidentally or accidentally hitting someone in the head is a penalty. If it’s a general play incident then the bunker has no right to intervene as it’s clearly not worthy of being on report. Bunker intervention on the Harry Grant trip was also a wrong application of rules as he made contact with arms first so the trip is no applicable and not reportable

 

[Bazal]

Yeah, agree. Entertainment has seriously been shit.

I mean apart from a few niche genres modern Aussie artists suck almost as much as Chisel...I didn't even see the entertainment cos I personally DGAF about it and rarely switch it on til after but it makes me laugh when we get international artists and people whine.

 

[Game_Breaker]

Scotty Morrison?

From Engadine

 

[Vic Mackey]

The storm were honestly bog average all year, it was only the shit standard of comp that had them finishing 2nd. That first half was brilliant but they haven’t put in 80 mins all year so no real surprise what Happened. As good as their spine is they all look frantic in big, close games. I could be wrong but it feels like they are losing them more often than not.

Interesting year for them next year. The last 2 teams to lose B2B grand finals missed the finals the following year. Emotionally it must be so tough to back up from. Whilst still obviously good they’ve felt very stale the last 3 or so years. Papenhuyzen is the obvious one to move on, wouldn’t be against Munster going either.

 

[icewind]

wowww!!! This is the making of Reece Walsh. Hayne's 09 was insane, but Walsh's '25.... oh baby!!!!
Was Haas injured? He seemed to play a lot less minutes than normal, though maybe part of Madge's grand plan to maximise the last 25 minutes.

 

[Apey]

Outside of Paps the Storm were Cam Newton in the super bowl. Just watched the ball on the ground multiple times.

It's a shame Paps lost his top end speed. He goes the distance on the line breaks with his 2020 speed.

The Storm played like they'll be back next week.

Losing Howarth so early even though hes a plodder didn't help, because he's still centre, and Wishart is not.

But yeah, I reckon Munster is the biggest culprit of not really giving a shit in the Storm team, ever since Cheese left anyway. Hughes and Grant seem to want it.

They'll probably make a prelim again next year at a minimum, maybe they can lose 3 in a row?

Teddy was great. An actual singer with a decent band. Snoop had some kids he stole from some school rock eisteddfod
