On the Olam “tackle”, I guess you couldn’t penalise it for a shoulder charge because, well, there’s not much shoulder involved.
It’s a headbutt.

Yea you guys have had it hard losing blokes Reimis and Jennings.Many folk on here jacking themselves off over the demise of the Storm. 2022 is done and dusted for sure, but take a step back and look at who has been injured.
Welch, Paps, Coates, Reimis Smith, Jennings, Loiero - these are just those which come to mind.
That’s not a cry for sympathy - most teams cop this at one stage or another, but you’ll be sorely mistaken if you think this slump in form is long term.
As for the game, we did ourselves no favours against our bogey side - wasn’t expecting much different tbh.

Before Magic Round everyone on here and in the media was etching the Storm’s name on the trophy; now everyone is writing them off. They should make the top 4 and then they are only three wins away from winning the whole thing; anyone who doesn’t think the Storm can win three games in a row at the business end of the season hasn’t been watching closely over the past 15 years…Many folk on here jacking themselves off over the demise of the Storm. 2022 is done and dusted for sure, but take a step back and look at who has been injured.

Every team could tell a similar story.Many folk on here jacking themselves off over the demise of the Storm. 2022 is done and dusted for sure, but take a step back and look at who has been injured.

You put your lips up to the whistle and blow it.how do you give that as a penalty????????????????
To be fair - Paps and Welch on their own are more valuable than those players together.Every team could tell a similar story.
CNK, Croker, Cotric, Smith-Shields, Whitehead, Hodgson, Horsburgh, Valemei, Rushton, Mooney - and that’s just who was missing yesterday.
No excuses.
Jesus Christ mate. I thought having a good night's sleep would allow you to reflect on just how stupid your posts in this thread were yesterday, but you've gone and doubled down. Unbelievable.To be fair - Paps and Welch on their own are more valuable than those players together.
Yes Skeepe, the NAS and Rapana tackles were exactly the same.Jesus Christ mate. I thought having a good night's sleep would allow you to reflect on just how stupid your posts in this thread were yesterday, but you've gone and doubled down. Unbelievable.
I was responding to your post about Paps and Welch being more valuable than all the Raiders that are out put together. You seem to be replying to a completely different thread.Yes Skeepe, the NAS and Rapana tackles were exactly the same.
That's why the officials yesterday and the Match Review Committee both see Rapana's tackle as worse.
Everyone is wrong except for you!
Oh so you didn't refer to posts made in this thread yesterday when you said:I was responding to your post about Paps and Welch being more valuable than all the Raiders that are out put together. You seem to be replying to a completely different thread.
Your brain is addled mate. Get help.
