[sensesmaybenumbed]

In before rhino..,

 

[Marshall_magic]

Warm it up

 

[GongPanther]

Come on, Tiges by at least 40.

 

[footy75]

Storm by twelve

 

[This Year?]

It's now or never Tigers.

 

[Saxon]

It's now or never Tigers.

So, never then.

 

[This Year?]

So, never then.

You never know...
Storm without their 2 best players. Tigers without 2 of their better players.
The only way Tigers win this is if the Tigers middle holds their own and Brooks has the game of his life. Jennings is a massive liability.

Brooks isnt playing anytime soon.

 

[Eelectrica]

Warm it up

The Tigers ending Melbourne’s streak of not conceding 50 would be a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Not many teams will win games without their first choice 6/7/9, best forward and a 1 who was on a Jersey Flegg contract 8 weeks ago

Toa at 6 is pure Sheenius

Da Silva has torn up every grade he's played but has only played about 15 mins of nsw cup, will be playing well before his time

Hughes will be the difference, Storm by 14

 

[JamesRustle]

Dragons to move up the ladder without playing this round. Storm by 3.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Storm by 24....If they don't turn up

 

[Someone2]

Storm by 20
Tigers in last place again

 

[Belza]

STORM by 14

 

[Diesel]

The main even, match of the round

 

[Diesel]

This could be 60–10 or 15-14

 

[stormbati]

f**k these Storm jerseys are rubbish.

 

[Bazal]

This could be 60–10 or 15-14

Yeah I'm thinking the former.

Maybe remove the 1

 

[Marshall_magic]

This could be 60–10 or 15-14

Probably the former
