That was one if the worst refereeing performances you'll ever see. If Steve Kyons is in first grade next week, it will be an absolute joke.

Yet again Jarryd Hayne costs the Eels the game. While he improved in the second half when the Eels were ahead, he crumbled once again when the pressure was on and this loss falls squarely on his shoulders.

You know what, skeepe? You're actually 100% on the mark RE: referees. Lyons wasn't on his own there either. Tony Three Names has to take some responsibility too.

Gotta feel for Parra there. Should of put the game away but they always kept us in it.
The combination of Smith, Slater and Cronk is amazing. They know what eachother's doing all the time.
Lot of positives for Parra. Their defense was great at times.

Biggest difference is the mental strength of the Storm. Kept their compusure even after some dodgy calls and an 18 point deficit and knew what it took to win.

definitely, best combination of 3 players in the comp. definitely made the right decision letting mcinglis go.

combination of mental strength and a vastly superior backline led to your victory i think. can't fault our effort tonight though. your boys are just too good.

its been 3 hours since the game finished and im still gutted. i know we have a shit roster blah blah blah but the amount of games we have lost in the final minutes (be it our own fault or not) is so frustrating! You can see hindys total disappointment and bewilderment at these losses when hes interviewed too. Hayne needs to stop thinking of himself and play a team game....stick him back to fullback...he did more from back there.

burt will serve us well on the wing anyway. uaisele ive warmed too tries hard.

i liked smith and horo as make shift centres and deadset maitua has been a great buy!

we will scare teams till round 26...and wont get the spoon but still its frustrating to watch because u can see even without the wins we r overachieving.

bring on the bunnies

Come from behind wins seem to be the flavour of the week. Storm down 18-0 with 20 mins to go and who 22-18
