Storm are missing 5 of their regular 17 so we have a good a chance as any to get the 2 points this weekend in Melbourne.

With only Auva'a due back from injury and Taka and Jennings blocking his way, will BA make any changes unless forced to by Ma'u's injury?

1. Gutho
2. Semi
3. Taka
4. Jenko
5. French
6. Norman
7. Moses
8. Mannah
9. King
10. Matagi
11. Ma'u (Niukore)
12. Tepai
13. Brown

14. Alvaro
15. Edwards
16. Gower/Vave
17. Smith

18. Niukore
19. Vave
20. Folau
21. Davis or Auva'a

Telegraph running with a story that the storm will be without 10 of their regular starters this week.

Can't read due the paywall.....

It's including guys who are already injured and they also included Harris and Bromwich who have not been ruled out

Sort of hope Kenny gets a week at Wenty in an attempt to make him realise that he needs to smarten up. But then I realised that no matter how many weeks he plays at Wenty, he'll always be a dumb shit.

He made 46 tackles.

He did 2 bad things, going for the intercept that if he took we would be calling him a champ and tackling a guy when called offside.
You cant blame a second rower for not premoting ball when was a 2 on 3 and you cant drop a giy who made 46 tackles for dropping a ball ffs.

KE did a few things that in heat of moment hurt but none call for being dropped.

We won however a scapegoat was still required.

During the game KE annoyed me. But he did a lot of good and some of his brains farts or errors are a part of footy.

He was never going to take that interception. That's why it was stupid.

I like Kenny, and he can do some very good things on the footy field, but he is a dumb merkin who needs to work on his handling. Way too many dropped balls and stupid passes. Starting to remind me of Mateo.

I love Kenny, but since his return he seems to be playing on tilt. Trying to make up for those 7 weeks every time he is involved with the play. BA needs to tell him to chill the f**k out because he is an important member of this team.

Two errors and two penalties. In terms of handing over the ball, he is the new Mick Vella. When your trying to close out a win, he'll be heart in the mouth stuff for the last ten minutes, with a 50/50 chance he'll drop the ball.

3 ... he dropped the ball cold 15m from our line on tackle 2 running sideways when we desperately needed to get off our line ... now some might not call that bad, but im a bit critical

Everyone will have a bad hame from time to time. IIRC Semi had a shocker earlier in the year and dropped the ball all night.

Kenny is in poor form and I think it has coincided with him being in the starting 13. BA needs to find a way to get him focused. Don't know if that will happen by resting him or playing him off the bench.

I would like Ualesi to replace Mannah who is just making up the numbers atm, has to be better surely.
Also Nuikore to replace Edwards, he needs a stint in Wenty to clear his head, too many brain explosions for me lately and not his usual dominant self.

I think Edwards just need to go back to the bench, that shoudl suffice and be enough to get his focus back. BA just needs to quote Inspector Harry Callahan to him - "A man's got to know his limitations"
