I like when Cooper Cronk compliments Cam Smith in commentary to pretend he doesn't actually hate the merkin

We all hate the merkin

Ruan Sims:

3 Billy Slater
2 Cam
1 Bum Chin

 

[This Year?]

Looking forward to what the Liverpool FC coach has to say.

Papenmilhouse speaks well for a guy who looks like he hangs around outside Westfield in his tracksuit bum bag combo asking passers-by if he can borrow the lighter they likely don't have

Papenhauzen looks like he could go around again ffs typical storm

I would argue he is better than Slater was at this point in his career which is scary. I don't think he will reach the same heights as Slater though. But Billy was erratic and error prone in his first 2 seasons. Paps is pretty damn safe at the back.

I know Roosters had some key players out - but the leadership without Smith and Munster was outstanding, from our spine in particular.
Very surprised and very happy with that performance.

And wouldn’t you know it. Another Pete Cash post. He’s everywhere!

 

[roofromoz]

He's got some competition with Naden and George Williams...

Nothing ugly with how scores those tries but.

I think based on that game the Storm will remain a force at least until Bellamy retires. Even then they’d need to replace Craig with a spud like Kevvie Walters or Stephen Kearney and it would take some time before the standards started to slip. But the Storm are too professional to choose a spud as Bellamy’s successor.

I’m glad Adam O’Brien is coaching my club because if he was still the heir apparent to Bellyache then it would be BAU for the Storm for another 15-20 years.

Storm forwards and the bench ( is the best in the nrl) made the roosters forwards look like boys.
Thought they done well to keep it a bit respectable. Storm looked they were going going to score at will once the injuries set in.

Roosters never gave up, but now their premiership defence is in some trouble. Fairly tough road home, play the Raiders for 4th in a couple of weeks and the Knights could pass them too. Storm just too strong up the middle tonight as I expected. They need some troops back but they're losing more.

Sweet, we should get 22 hours on top of the ladder this week.

The Storm were all over us form the 2nd set onwards and never looked back. Yes, we had 3 players go down during the game and a host of other key injuries but we were never realistically in the hunt. A loss like this was always coming given recent performances but the Storm were all class.

 

[lazza]

Felt like boys against men. Storm tackle with intent to hurt. Roosters tackle like they're trying to place the Storm gently to the ground.

Yeah we won’t bother looking at an established coach other than O’Brien tbh. When the time comes I’m sure we will appoint from within

 

[Tommy Smith]

I seriously can't see anyone stopping the Storm this year.

Gross.

But also much respect to an incredible organisation.

As long as Smith or Bellamy are at the front of the Storm they will be strong always. When those 2 both leave they will decline.

yep just like we don't go for established players I don't see us going for an established coach

Im sure the club already has an idea who it will be as well
