An illegally assembled team beating an honest, law abiding team. Real entertainment.
Can't help but feel sorry for all the teams that will lose to the storm this year.
The solution is simple
FFS..The refs going to help the Storm get home.
tbh this is exactly how I would expect the side that was named to perform. Without Mannering, Vatuvei, Seymour and Price we basically just have a crap team.
Cleary's selections, even with limited resources, are geniused. Playing Hohaia in the halves and McKinnon at fullback is just demented and I can't believe how Clearly gets away with relatively little criticism for such a blunder. At least with Hohaia at fullback we would have a player somewhere in the backline who is decent and playing in the right position (yes, Tate is a good winger, but he's never going to be playing a significant role at right wing in this side). I look at this Warriors side on paper and frankly I don't expect them to be able to score points.
What a giant bunch of bitter sooks that are in here.
I expect the Warriors have gone out there just expecting the refs to be on there side and for the Storm to roll over and let them win.
Even with the Storm not getting any points for the rest of the I am sure they can take some joy out of denying points to the teams they play.
So the refs are on Melbournes side are they. Where was the penalty for this the ball was not even in play yet and almost all the team is offside.

I am also waiting for the giant cry about illegal tactics with this tackle against Tolman. He was injured by it and if It had been the other way around I am sure there would be calls for heads to be rolled.
