Is there any reason Finch hasnt been slotted into the side yet?

If the Storm play as badly in attack as they did against the Tigers they'll lose.

No really? whatever gave you that idea?
If we play as badly as we did on Monday against anyone we would lose.

I’m guessing Bellyache announced the squad the day after the game and will *fingers crossed* make changes. Finch, White and Sika are possible inclusions.

Warriors to win..just Melbourne to screw up yet again as they have always this year

 

[MsStorm]

Warriors will beat Melbourne.
If so, are they out of the 8 then?

If they lose, they will be out of the 8

After watching nrl teams last night I saw the odds and Melb. are favourites to win but everyone on the panel except the Wiz. picked the Warriors.

White is out indefinitely and I'd say Sika is not ready yet.

Maybe Bellyache will spring a few surprises on the night.

I also thought Finch might have made the squad...lets hope that playing at home will spur the boys on, especially after that awful final last year...we owe the Worriers big time.

if melbourne won against tigers then warriors would have a chance.. but two in a row do not see it happening. melbourne good value at $1.50

 

[Rovelli]

Gonna be tough for the Warriors.

Melbourne did play Monday night, so it's a very short turn-around for them.

Vatuvei to give Steve Turner more nightmares hopefully...Witt won't f**k up the winning try this time...Cam Smith can kick the goals too.

Just hope we compete and have a chance to win at the end of games, we have proven that if we have momentum we can beat anyone, especially Melbourne.

 

[kia ora storm]

Vatuvei will kill Turner...it won't be pretty.

 

[Dr Crane]

everyone can say melbourne are playing poorly, but let's not forget how sh*thouse the warriors are going right now....

 

[One Warrior]

McKinnon on plane, unlikely to play.

 

[LeagueNut]

^ Although it will be bloody interesting to see what Cleary does with the team if McKinnon does play.

 

[Parramatta_Power]

Is Witt playing???

 

[Chook Norris]

interesting game this one

Storm 13 trys in 6 games ..

Warriors not doing great but me thinks they'll win in a tight contest

Melbourne are almost certain to play Brett Finch for the first time for the club against the Warriors tomorrow night. The Warriors flew to Melbourne yesterday. Eighteenth man Lewis Brown will not play unless the side suffers a late injury.

Brett Finch is a big chance to make his debut in place of James Maloney at 5/8th for the Storm. Melbourne are averaging just 14.2 points per game, compared with 21.8 per game this time last year.
Warriors fullback Wade McKinnon (hamstring) made the trip and could play.

 

[Special K]

Maloney isn't playing

There was an idea he might come off the bench but he will be playing nsw cup

 

[Storm4Ever]

Ahhh f**k me, if this team doesn't change by Saturday we will lose and lose very badly crazy:

+1 Agreed hope they change their season around after this game

 

[LeagueNut]

Is Witt playing???

:iwstupid:

 

[kia ora storm]

Nice cool wet weather predicted for tomorrow...

 

[aussies1st]

Finch straight into the 5/8 spot and White onto the bench. Pouring down right now.

 

[gong_eagle]

it is bucketing down , won't be many points in this

 

[Spike]

Denan Kemp kicks a penalty goal

Warriors 2-0
