:lol: at Howe

 

[steaming stormer]

I think our problem next year is definitely going to be our wings. Moala is handy but I don't think he is strong enough in defence to play Bellamy's style of defence, and I am not really a fan of Ben McDougall.
I would have Dustin Cooper in there somewhere, and maybe Matt King on a wing. If Steve Turner is as good as the raps on him say then he would have one wing spot.
We have too many centres and not enough wingers

LOL like your bench there mate - all ex parra boys. Dont be suprised to see a guy called Anthony Boyd make it into your team sometime during the season too. He is currently signed to your feeder club, but given the chance he could be one hell of an impact player. He was one of the best in the lower grades at parra over the last few seasons.

Im really hoping that Macca will finally get back on the field and show not only the storm supporters, but more importantly all those who bagged the crap out of him when he was at Parra. Im proud to say i never bagged him and supported him 100%. I just hope he has a season injury free and gets a lot of game time for you guys.

And apparently those 3 players are replacement props? I'm sure Glen Turner would be a remarkable replacement for Rodney Howe when he goes off after 15 minutes. :roll:

Either King or MacDougall would do the job well enough.

I think there are far too many people underestimating Moala though, he's the clubs number 1 winger now and he has a good try strike rate. (1 in every 2 games)

 

[Routy21]

Ben MacDougall wont even make the bench for brisbane norths! He's crap!!

 

[Stormin Norman]

u can shuffle the fwd pack around a bit kirk already on the bench and robbo and kidwell could also play front row, chan is a hack. but your right flip a coin between king and macdougall. king will put more bums on seats wit that stupid hard cut and him looking alot like matt stone.

Like it but I'd have Dustin Cooper, Matt King Or Steve Turner on a wing before the others

Ben MacDougall is a great buy. He is a perfect back up player.

18. The rest of the squad to many to name. The best thing is I have left out a lot of top quality players. Quite scary actually.

there's actually still a lot of depth left at the club considering some of the younger ones have left!!!

15. Ryno Hoffman

Is that his new nickname? :lol: :lol:

15. Ryno Hoffman

And if he is not picked, Drop the R and it'd be Yno Hoffman. :lol: :lol: :lol:


Merry Christmass all

GO Storm !!!!!

 

[stormboy]

Turner and McDougall for the wing spots - I still don't rate Kidwell highly at all

 

[steaming stormer]

I disagree about Kidwell, I think he is a quality player and one of the best signings the club has made from another club. He is a good ball player and quite skillful for such a big, strong bloke, and deceptively quick IMO. Turner, if he is as good as the raps say, then he is going to be a superstar, but I'd like to see him play and work his way to first grade. McDougall is the one I don't rate!

 

[Anonymous]

Kidwell is a decent player but I think he is at his best coming of the bench as an impact player ala Danny Williams.

Orford is an absolute gun. If the Bears gave him a chance when JT started to go crap in late 1998, they'd still be here today...
- t-ba the hutt 23/12/2003

How is that possible? The club was forced to merge with Manly because the club was bankrupt and was in administration.

 

[Hoggy]

Ask t-ba the hutt.

 

[ball boy]

if you have so many problems with your wingers put macca at 5/8 and put geyer on the wing???
