One major concern for me about sunday and the Storm

[Casper The Ghost]

im reasonably confidant we can win on sunday but i have one daunting concern hanging over my mind and that is inglis running down grothes side and the tendency grothe has to come in off his wing. Joel Reddy will have to be 100% on his game to stop reddy. who plays defends on the inside of reddy? is it Lowrie or Hindy? id say DA will have Hindy roaming and keep his eye on slater and to make his usual desperate tackles to stop slater.

im confidant we can shut down slater but inglis on grothes wing worries me as he has made plenty of centre/wing combos look silly this season

With the assistance of others I feel Robson will be one of the main players to shut down Inglis. His body type/shape/height and tackling style will make it easier to chop down Inglis before he gathers a full-head of steam. Inglis' fend works best on taller players, but not so well against shorter, stockier, aggressive, passionate, intense, terriers like Robson who can quickly cover tackle and chop his legs down.

Dead right Casper. Only silly buggers try to take Inglis high ( except when close to the line ). From the comfort of my armchair I suspect that Reddy's up in your face defence could work here, especially since the inside troops have been moving in behind to cover him lately. Problem could be that if Reddy rushes up out of the line as he often does and Finch/Cronk/Smith kick the ball back on the inside rather than pass it outside to Inglis. I'm sure Ando has that covered as well.
