The Storm could get to 50 then decide to put their bench on, looks at Storm bench ohhh sh*t .

Yep, it's a pretty impressive squad depth.

The only reason to stay to full time is because it’s Guthos 200th and cheer him off the field, gee tough call.

I reckon cheer him on for his 200th, and cheer him off the field at half-time. If Guth has any sense he'll asked to be subbed off during the break when we're only 0-30 behind...

Barrett’s presser pointed forwards a debut tonight so assuming Keir will be there somewhere. Hoping a late switch sees Sanders at 7, Asi to bench and Lussick sitting on his ass at home

They only thing that saves us from the Storm not hitting 50 is Storm complacency after a mental high of an enormous performance for them against the Roosters last week, and being a fair way out in front on the competition ladder.

Bellamy teams have shown over the years complacency just doesn't exist.

They win these games 99 times out of 100 even if they have half the squad having an off night.

I said complacency might be enough for them not to hit 50, not actually lose.

Why not select him earlier and do the whole jersey presentation on Instagram etc ? Why make this one secret ?

They may have done it already and the video.

Socials just may have been told not to release it to after the team has been named 1hr before kickoff at 7:05pm .

And does it matter if it doesn’t end up on Instagram?

Unless its on TikTok did it really happen.

Early start for you Twiz. I have an RDO so im of to watch Deadpool and will be nice and liquored up for kick off.

The Movie is great. No spoilers for 21 days but man it is epic with a lot of inside baseball.

He has to put Sanders in. The only way to be competitive against the Storm is to keep attacking and scoring points. Going in with a safety first, defensive mindset is a recipe for disaster. At least Sanders is a proper halfback and can get the attack going a bit. Asi can't.

It was fantastic, almost as good as number 1.

Still not enough to save Marvel though.

Is anyone going to Commbank to put themselves through the torture?
