2018 R6 Fri - Storm 40-14 Knights @ AAMI

[Dave_]

Slater 1, Ponga 0

Love the way the the boy copped it on the chin with a big smile. He's the only player of this generation with even close to the potential of matching or dare I say exceeding Slater.

 

[David brown]

Newcastles discipline is what loses them games.. Other then that they played well like they have most weeks...

 

[Vee]

Slater shoulder charge

I thought so too but the replay showed No.

 

[Vee]

Crowd?

 

[Haffa]

about 2 metres forward from Smith at dummy half

The guy who plays 6 for the Storm will put forward a strong case too

Storm looking much less disjointed than last few weeks. Not a good sign for Croft, though I don't think he has been their main issue in recent weeks.

Knights are an improving squad but still not top tier. They'll have games like this.

 

[age.s]

I don't think I've ever heard so much about how well a team who's had 40 put on them is playing.

Smith is kicking goals again so probably fit again. Kaufusi back as well makes a big difference. Jacks is just consistent

 

[Mr Angry]

Melbourne adjusted.

 

[GongPanther]

Melbourne adjusted.

By adjusted you mean Melbourne adjusted the flight path of their passes and the refs "didn't notice" right?

Storm too good tonight but it's business as usual at NRL HQ and it's plain to see. How dare they sin bin Lord Cammy. The only positive is that this is hopefully the cheating filths last season.

Storm won it up front Brom and NAS destroyed the Knights front row

Are the Knights on the take? I mean Kasiano walked through the middle of the D

 

[macavity]

its almost worth using Buhrer as a running tackling six with limited ball playing while Watson is out. Ponga can pick up the slack and at least Buhrer would sure up the defence

Its what I would do.

Hence we are heavily recruiting any big front rower with a pulse. And Tim Glasby.

No Melbourne learnt to stay on side and get off the man playing the ball, was 7-1 penalties.

Catch up young man. Bellamy has.

It’s pity. I’m f**king sick of hearing it.

 

[Saxon]

Slater can just f**k off out of the game, no one would miss him

You spelled "Parramatta" wrong.

 

[stormbati]

Knights have the makings of a very good side.
I'm still not convinced Melbourne are on the way up will have to see a bit more of the same in the coming game, especially the tighter contests.
Oh and surely Ponga is in the mix for QLD
