Fmd Storm are playing well. After a dicy start to 2008, Storm are well and truly back on track.

Williamson and Beaver were c**k-flavoured lollypops tonight.

in my footy tipping and my 'friday 500' tip with sportsbet.com.au i tipped the storm to win by 12 and 22 points...but i can't remember which margin was with which

i'm praying 22 points was with the friday 500

It really doesn't come as a surprise - both Inglis and Crocker were out, add them back in and voila! One near-unbeatable team.

most painful game to watch in a long time, it should of been a margin between 1-12 melbourne played better but not how the scoreline suggests it.

I believe that
Melbourne were good
Manly were terrible
Officials should hand back thier pays and be shot in the head for that display!

BUT
Manly deserved to loose and melbourne were far to good

Better team clearly won but sh!t there were some terrible decisions. They would not have changed the end result but f**k it sh!tted me. Also why the f**k wasnt Orford trying for repeat sets of 6 to build pressure instead of high kicks which we had no hope of scoring from.

It was very close at the start untill the reff farked it up. I am happy with our effort melbourne had the longer turn around and home advantage.

Manly were outclassed today and deserved a beating, but some of the calls from Archer and Harrigan were on the cusp of biased. Penalty against Watmough for first
storm Try, Smith knock on and then penalty for 2nd try both bul!sh*t, steven Bell should have been a try! - that was bul!sh*t .
All that aside nothing against storm they were great and deserved to win!

That was one of the most disgusting displays of 'fair judgment' I have ever seen from a referee. The 50-50's were more like 90-10 and I counted in the first 15 minutes; 3 penalties to the storm that weren't penalties. Whilst also watching the storm get away with holding down players too long and not being penalised, knocking the ball on and not playing the ball on the mark.


Manly were beaten in that game in the first 20 minutes, but they weren't beaten by skill - they were simply not given a fair bite at the cherry from the first whistle. Tony Archer is a S$%t referee, and should not be presiding over 1st grade. I have seen better performances from rookies for god sake.

Thats my rant... I feel better now :)

wasn't very impressed with Manly tonight, I of course was cheering for them and Melbourne as I always do when it's a Manly/Melbourne game but I mostly yelled at Melbourne but I still love them and I was there in the colours of both of my teams but I only had my Manly flag.
