Its that time - Your 2010 Storm

[kia ora storm]

He was Ok, but he only played because Cam was at 7 and they needed to carry a back-up 9 or 7 in Kostkhdhfj. I really cant see (or I hope)Bellamy going with Cam there again.

Not sure about that.....it was quite effective and we have a ready make hooker in Hinchcliffe.

I thought KostaIcantspellhissurname played well...

 

[Bman26]

Just tell Finch to nut up for a month and play half back. Smith and the backline wizards will still do their thing anyway, all he needs to do is kick on the fifth.

 

[1999]

1. Slater (goes with out saying)
2. MacDougall (pre season form awesome, deserves his spot)
3. Nielsen (big and strong, good foot work, a talent and a real centre)
4. Inglis (best player in the NRL)
5. Quinn (looked great in the WCC, got that mongrel few have, can have a bad read in him though)
6. Chisholm (this kid is a freak with ball in hand, got the best defence in the NRL to help him out)
7. Finch (can handle 7 til cronks back)
8. Tolman (best young forward in the comp, exciting)
9. Smith (c) (showed in the WCC he is a born 9)
10. Lima (rather off the bench but until whites back he starts)
11. Proctor (rate him massively)
12. Hoffman (love the hoff but needs to inject himself in a little more)
13. Blair (better then lowrie and is a great loose forward)

14. Hinchcliffe (love this guy, great value)
15. Tandy (strong no nonsense prop.. perfect)
16. Lowrie (really not sold on him yet, hope he improves)
17. Bromwich (bleed him young and him and AT are gonna be the best front row for years)

Cronk White and Manu will walk back into this team at the expense of Chisolm Bromwich and Lowrie

Where the hell do we put Whiddop then !!...this guy is a star in the making.

Bellamy has a pleasant problem on his hands..

 

[tezzah]

The competitive juices will definitely be flowing for all the newbies!!! Bring on game one!!!

 

[Dan70]

Just on Kostjasyn, is it really pronounced "Cost-Jason"? Seems to me like it should be something like "Costa-sen" or "Cost-ya-sen". :?

I just don't trust comentators who come up with such gems as "I think we'll see N-O-T-R-Y"....

when did lowrie get injured??? ive heard nothing on news ..

 

[Evenflow]

"Cost-ya-sen". :?

I was thinking it was Cost-ya-sen as well.

 

[melbourne_belle]

when did lowrie get injured??? ive heard nothing on news ..

Groin injury. I am assuming it was during the WCC game.

 

[cronker]

It sounds like a Croatian surname, which definitely would make it "costya-zhen".

Lets all settle for Kosta

hey guys i have luke mcdougall in my fantasy team. Do u think he will be playing regular first grade and how has he been looking in the trials?

 

[kia ora storm]

McDougall is looking good...has a tone of pace and IMO should start in the first round.

 

[Noa]

If he was playing on GI's side Id put him in in a flash, dont know how much chances he will get on the right though.

 

[God-King Dean]

Is MacDougall likely to retain his spot or is he only in due to injuries?

 

[Noa]

Its his spot to lose at least till Stanley is fit for selection. Bellamy wont change things though if were playing well.

 

[God-King Dean]

I assume Stanley would go to the centres & Nielson to the wing?

 

[Noa]

Yep.
