Everyone continues to cream themselves over Manly, and how this is their time, and Storm are on their last legs.
Manly go into the game warm favourites (despite most of Sydney still resisting the urge to barrack for them and depiste Des Hasler getting upset about the fact they should be underdogs).
Storm relish the underdog status (despite feeling confident they should be favourites).
Storm come out and completely outplay Manly from Start to Finish.
Media cream themselves on how good the Storm are...and how silly they were to right off a champion team, full of stars and coached by the best in the business.
Gallop presents trophy to Storm whereby Waldron launches an unbelievable spray at the lack of leadership, and is given a standing ovation by the packed Telstra Stadium.
Gallop resigns shortly thereafter.
