2017 R23 Sat - Storm 16-13 Roosters @ AAMI

[Clifferd]

Won't surprise me at all. The Storm just don't need to win this match so won't be showing another contender any of their secrets. Apart from the $20 you get for winning the Giltinan Shield, they only need to finish above 3rd to get the 2 home finals. They'd have to lose every game to finish 3rd, including the Kinghts.

But if storm win this game, they virtually have 1st place locked up. Plus stamp their authority on the comp

Plenty of incentive for them

Manu and Letrell ont he same side is a recipe for disaster, surely that changes by kickoff.

Our forwards and bench do look much stronger with Friend and Cordner though.

Still, it depends on how Melbourne turn up. Their best is better than ours at this stage.

Storm to spank to the chooks = long hibernation for Albert.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Storm.

Only Tupou out, Cordner and Friend return. Easts by 10

I struggle to understand why the likes of the tigers keep getting prime time Sunday arvo games while this 1st v 2nd game is relegated to the graveyard 5.30 Sat shift.

NRL scheduling is comically bad.

Yeah I know why it happens. Very poor thinking though. Not the way to grow the game, by catering to rusted on tigers fans instead of showcasing the best teams.

Storm to thrash the Roosters by 20

Storm by 13. Roosters fans to bitch about the refs from the 1st minute.

 

[The Beaver]

Can't see anything but a Melbourne win here.

Hoping the Rooster win just like in Adelaide but I think the Storm will be too good this time.

Congrats on the Minor premiership Storm fans.

Who thought it was a good idea to give Justin Hodges a job on TV?
