Can Melbourne Seriously Be Stopped in 2012?

[beefstew]

As much as I hate the storm and love any post deathriding the cheating merkins, that is an extremely dumb post beefstew..

You can keep saying it's a dumb post, simply because Slater never seems to suffer long term injuries, but when
that injury comes, you'll see what is painfully obvious...take out the best player in the world, and they are a
fringe top 8 team at best.

LOL@YOU! Seriously, a hooker is only as good as the players around him?? I mean.. are you.. i just don't know how to respond to that. Are you all there? Seriously i've read some dribble on here but this takes the cake. How does having Slater 30 metres behind him help Smithy make 40+ tackles, bring forwards onto the ball, scoot at the right time, kick in general play, kick goals and be a captain and leader making him overall one of the great #9's of history? Your a f***ing imbocile. I'm just shocked.... this has to be the most ridiculous and clueless statement of all time. Get back on your meds moron.

Storm will get pumped this afternoon by the cowboys

Aww look, I made the kiddie angry, lets hope as you get older, you'll be able to convey your emotions intelligently, without
the childish insults and swearing, I somehow doubt it.

Now if you can calm yourself down, try taking some deep breaths...and think about it like a grownup, you'll see I'm
right, now off to you go.

Agreed.

you tried your best, but you just can't hide that you're 14 years old forever. it eventually becomes obvious.

What numpties are you refferng to?

Pretty much your entire pack and bench except Smith and Proctor, especially the props. Come finals your pack will get dominated. And guaranteed one of your props will drop the ball, miss a tackle or give away an amateur penalty at a bad time - they're just not good enough and finals will show this. The only chance they've got is if the big 3 play totally out of their skins to overcome the inadequacies of the pack. Those three are that good that they could do it, but it'll be a big ask.

 

[Noa]

Anyone who knows what they're talking about can see the 9 is the best and most important player for the storm. Besides which cooper cronk has the the #1 man fur us this year quite easily

Man seriously?? Our engine room is humming ATM these so called numpties are on another level this season guys like norri who I woulda just called an average foward have stepped it up with their work rate dedication and offloads. Keep thinking the storms fowards are weak Lol If you really want a definition of a weak foward pack look at the tigers and the titans.

God you are obviously a dumb ass who buys into the BIG THREE hype LOL the back spine of any team is important moron but the Engine room of the Storm is far far stronger then it was last year.

Can't wait to see what the rest of the year will bring.

Oh and how great has Ryan Hoffman been ;-)

But we're not talking about ATM, we're talking about the finals, where quality rises to the top. Being consistent is totally different to rising for the big occasion.

these so called numpties are on another level this season guys like norri who I woulda just called an average forward

and you'd have been right

have stepped it up with their work rate dedication and offloads.

good for them. We'll see how their offloads go when the intensity is raised a notch in the finals

God you are obviously a dumb ass who buys into the BIG THREE hype

Lol I don't agree with you so I must be a dumb arse who buys into hype.

the back spine of any team is important moron but the Engine room of the Storm is far far stronger then it was last year.

You better hope so, because last year was the first time in a long time that you got to see how a team goes in the finals when you don't have a team of stars. Personally, whilst I think you're a chance of winning, I also think it's more likely someone will knock you off because your pack won't be able to raise its level for three games.

Famous last words!

Ordionary first half but the rocket Bellamy gave them seemed to have worked. Good on Ryles getting over for a try!

 

[HowHigh]

Wonder if Centrebet will close the Minor Premiership betting in a few more rounds if the Storm keep this up

 

[azza29]

Thought tonight would've been a little closer to be honest. First proper challenge of the year and the boys were up to it. Next big test will be round 12 when we play the Broncs. Or maybe on Anzac day if the Warriors can lift their game a bit.

 

[Snappy]

t. Next big test will be round 12 when we play the Broncs. .

Nah. That match is two days after Origin. Broncos will rest our Origin players same as last year, whilst Storm will be full strength.

 

[aussies1st]

Cowboys haven't been that good this season so in a way you could see this result coming. Warriors would be the best hope if they lift if not that game will be serious carnage.

 

[Grapple]

Bulldogs will tear them apart. Kris Keating to run rings around that defense. Go you Doggies!

:lol:

I'm confident our boys will put it to em.

Unfortunately for us they will be 7/7 next week.
Well at least hopefully we give them a good contest, and its not a smashing.
