2. Manu
1. Taylor

Taylor just gets the 1 over Berrigan, I thought Berrigan played well today and I have been criticising him, Tupou did nothing wrong today and should not be criticised, all criticism should be aimed at Hohaia, Seymour, Maloney and of course Cleary. I knew we had nothing to fear over Manu, we see more from him every week, he definitely lifted his intensity today, just normal for someone coming back from a serious leg injury. Last week's team would of beaten the Storm today and well, Cleary should be ashamed of himself for picking that team and trying to wreck our season.

The decision to not start Mateo completely baffles me. And what is this about Locke and Fish not being selected due to missing a medical test?

Could Sione Lousi have the slowest play-the-ball in the competition? Was painful.

And yes, Lance should just go now. Awful.

Hohaia and Seymour need to be dropped quicker than the balls they dropped!
Mannering looks like he needs a rest as well! Defence ok, Attack had the dropsies at important time and has been the case in the last few games.

If the Locke and Fishi rumours are true, does Ivan have an out clause in his contract if we dont make the 8????

Lances try was well constructed, we had options, people running angles!
Why does this not happen more often???
The only option we seem to have is catch and pass and a limp kick on the end of it!

Sad thing is, I was expecting a much worse scoreline.

I was going to say this - that was brilliant. Left 2 or 3 defenders completely clutching at air.

But then we go back to aimlessly hitting it up, maybe one run-around play that doesn't work and a kick to the wing. And how poor were the bombs to the wing, and in fact our whole kicking game?

Despite everything today, we would have been far closer to winning had we been able to execute a half decent kicking game. We put zero pressure on the Storm. Maloney's short kicking game was so awful, and Buster's wasn't much better. Sadly, he has looked short of form for the past month. Otherwise, I thought we fought hard enough. Looking forward to seeing some speed back after the bye. I think Seymour should retain his spot, but SJ needs to included on the bench, just to give us extra spark. Mateo needed Locke/Fish/SJ today - it just sucks to see Feleti playing like a gun when we're not able to capitalise.

...what a machine. ANY team could win with a ball playing second rower dominating to that degree.
Except us, because we named a team full of bumbling, geniused slugs.

Nah, just an 80 minute session of poorly delivered, bad taste stand up comedy that failed to either amuse or entertain.

I'd rather watch re-runs of the nanny than whatever that was.

If anybody selects Maloney, they should be banned from the site

3 Maloney

...Kidding- don't count that FFS!:lol:

Seriously, no 321 from me again as I got frustrated on several occasions and flicked over to Ace of Cakes to take my mind off it. Awful game I struggled to keep watching.
Yet another game where we just handed 2 points on a plate to another team, and that is what is so annoying and so frustrating. As is the possibility Locke wasn't playing due to some bullshit technicality, as is Cleary going on about a bad ref call. Yes it was a bad call but we got far bigger issues than that.
Thank good its the bye. And if we don't come out of the bye fired up, and don't utterly slaughter the Tits...I am going to be an extremely unhappy camper. And an expert on Cakes from flicking to the food channel in disgust:lol:
