the only positive i can see would be if we annouced the signing of duffie and cronk this week.
Been struggling since the cheap shot Quinn put on him.Hayne is not 100%
It took Bellamy a few yrs before the Storm were competitive. It helps when you ahve the best spine in the comp by a mile. look at our spine???? 0 creativity bar Hayne.
It is said you learn more from a loss than a win.
We are learning plenty today.
Next week we will be better
Which nuffies?
Let's not forget that this is the finest collection of youngsters that money could buy (literally).
They didn't just cheat to get Slater/Smith/Inglis/Cronk locked away.
They cheated to get Blair etc as well.
Then they cheated to get guys like Duffie/Widdop to the club in the first place.
And the 'penalty' for the cheating was to change the records, but pretty well let them keep the fruit of the cheating...
hypothetical example (using made up numbers!):
Smith gets paid $500k per season - the cheating salary was $500k + $300k in club organised endorsements/cap rorts
Instead of being forced to count him as $800k against this years cap (and so be forced to lose a lot of mid level talent AND young talent) the Storm are allowed to ditch the $300k amount and just count him as $500k.
Cheats prosper... hate the Storm!
Brian Norrie, Todd Lowrie, Hinchliffe, Quinn, Turner, new players like Duffie, Neilson, Widdop etc.
Regardless off cheating, his structure works well with any player!!
We look as s*it as last year even though we have better "structures" in place this year!!!
You don't like Kearney, do you?Brian Norrie, Todd Lowrie, Hinchliffe, Quinn, Turner, new players like Duffie, Neilson, Widdop etc.

no we won't
this is a very ordinary side that should be spoon faves
We also lost plenty of players last year and arguably replaced them with players of a lesser standard or didnt replace them at all.
You don't like Kearney, do you?
So did Melbourne and they look BETTER this year!
