Cmon, you do understand that Lomax can only get a clearance to another NRL club with the agreement of the Eels, so he is effectively on our books until the end of 2027 unless we agree to something that will improve our football club, Almost exactly the works of Sarantinos and Beach.

Just check with MON when you see him tonight
Wouldn't a player swap mean we lost a player from our current squad in order to get Tago?

How the f**k is he "on our books"?
We aren't paying him and he isn't taking a spot in our squad.

Well he may as well be. It’s nearly exactly the same. We hold all the power until the end of 2027 if he wants to play NRL, remember? Are you and your mate doing tag team cock fighting tonight?
Its nowhere near the same. Not in our top 30, not being paid by us. So not in our squad despite us holding the power as to where he plays.

Come at me.

Come at me you f**king wankers who argued I’m full of shit. That we have a top side this year!!!

The amount of people that convince themselves they know what winning looks like shows how many don’t.

I desperately want to be wrong. But we ain’t doing shit this year.

It’s pretty f**king shit to be a Parra fan but I won’t change.

We're a mid-table squad. Melbourne still have the best spine in the game. They will carve anyone up with 60% of the ball.

Shame I bought round 2 tickets last week. Should have waited and saved myself a fortune because the broncos are a damn better team than the storm so we are in trouble.

any team ever had a F/A of -100 after 2 games ?

I can't blame Ryles for that. There is no way Ryles said.....right boys, I'd like us to make 17 errors and give away 10 6 agains.

We have one of the weakest rosters in the comp. Name another team that has the current cap space Parra does.

I've seen enough of Pezet already. He isn't a 5/8. Id's rather Papalii at 5/8.

Penisini shouldn't be re-signed, hands like feet and not quick enough.

I'd move Russell back in centres and put Samrani on the wing. We lacked some size tonight

Who came up with the dumb plan to try to offload every hit up? Surely Ryles would have said guys run hard make meters you can try to win against the Storm with offloads...

The Storm just run straight down the middle tonight I could see it that how they have always beaten us but Ryles didn't have a plan for it?

I agree with Pezet and would rather have the Ibis on the wing who actually killed it today in cup..

Russell only offloaded because he got smashed and was going backwards.
Paulo usually has 1 dumb offload a game.

I actually want to shake Penisini's hand to see if he has fingers.

He got murdered by a nobody. He's too slow. We are kidding ourselves if he gets re-signed.

Pezet can't play 5/8 for us for the whole season. At some stage we'll see Lorenzo. I believe Ryles will give him a go.

Ref killed us with no penalty on Iongi high shot. We missed Tuivati

Russell in the second half should have held onto it we kept going for the miracle play.. Penisini makes a break loses it trying to reach out instead of holding onto the ball.

Hopgood in the 2nd half loses it going for a dumb play attacking their line when it was still 18-4..

Barlow made a good run when he actually took a hit up but too many times he wanted to offload it..

The Storms forwards had 1 plan run hard quick play the ball and let the backs setup the tries..

Id rather have lorenzo than joash at 6 but either would be fine. Pezet will make a great back up 7 for Moses

Penis has to be one of the dumbest players but he did look stronger and faster tonight so i still have some hope with some better direction from the coaches. Shame sean is gone tho he looks good.

I dont mind the samrani suggestion just to see if we can look better defensively with sean in the centers. Suprisingly our runs out of our own half when we held onto it didnt look as bad as i thought wed do

Whatever he said at the break didn’t make a difference
