Rd1: 405pm Parra v Storm GAME DAY THREAD in Melbourne 9/3/25

[Lemon Squash]

Melbourne has been pretty shithouse this second half to be honest

 

[JokerEel]

I’ve watched plenty of him in the juniors mate, not judging in 5 minutes

Kids fine.

 

[senior]

how did we look a lot faster in the 1st trial??? are the knights that bad

 

[The Predictor]

Who are the others?

Cartwright, Moretti if not injured Greig

 

[Jake the snake]

If we can somehow front load our effort areas

 

[Avenger]

I have a feeling that Brown has decided he’s leaving and his squirrel brain has shrunk to a point where he can’t cope.

He has never been more of a passenger than today.

What a terrible and lazy display from
Someone we needed to step up.

 

[Comfy]

I think you guys should hire more ex dragons players to coach

 

[Parra Cheeses]

Cartwright, Moretti if not injured Greig

I like Greig

 

[Delboy]

Why isn’t the ref waving 6 agains for laying in and interfering in the ruck just about every play in the Storm half, so obvious yet nothing . Harry Grant refuses to get off the tackled player, awful

 

[southsydneyrabbitohs]

Melbourne by 70.

Nearly 70pts.. the purple puke are over the cap and the nrl is a scam what a sad day in rugby league bellamy would not beat the puke if he was parras coach fact..

 

[Suitman]

The hooker smith is better option thank Hands and Lussick

His defence is still suspect though but I'm prepared to give him time.

 

[Pazza]

I’ve watched plenty of him in the juniors mate, not judging in 5 minutes

Huge prop a bit loose in defence

What a take

 

[JokerEel]

Why was Hands off for so long???

 

[The Predictor]

Kids fine.

Let’s see

 

[Wally21]

I hope Riley just has cramp. He has to be in the team. I would like to see Papali on the bench as the 14

 

[the phantom menace]

God I hope we don't try and get fake positive mileage out of the "winning the second half" stat - we don't deserve any such pretend positives today. It will just set us up for failure next week.

 

[senior]

Why was Hands off for so long???

Because smith is favoured

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Possession has almost evened up this half.

 

[Lemon Squash]

Bellamy will be absolutely frothing with this second half. I still don’t think we have been that much better, they have just completely shut up shop.

 

[JokerEel]

Let’s see

Done well enough in his short stint today led the kick chase a few times took hits upsade some decent tackles can't ask for anything else
