Storm lost a few more players on the weekend.

They will be without Papenhuyzen, Olam, Kamikamica from there full strength 17 for round 1.

Even with our outs in the backrow we should still be good enough at Home. It's not like we fear Melbourne anymore either. We have probably gained an edge over them mentally over the last few years.

Yet are 1.65 favourites. I loaded up on the Eels into Tigers into Manly.

It's pretty disappointing that the club had all of last season to recruit a decent number 14 knowing that Hodgson won't be playing 80 mins per game at least for the start of the season.

So our Round 1 option is either JA or Carty if his jaw is ok.

Carty is the worse passer of the ground. Asi and Rein hasn't really played so it has always been ja. The spot has always been his. Ba just said he had to play nsw cup just to stop all the noise

Well JA was carried to a GF and ended up scoring a try that will never be forgotten by all parra fans that were there that night.

What makes you think things were going to change this year.

And presumably to give Jake the chance to develop his game and potential future as a halfback (or anything else), by playing more than 5-20mins of footy per weekend?

I think Jake will end up playing in England, after the current contract runs out (and presumably his Dad is also not the coach - not claiming nepotism, just that that would be a timepost for a change).

He can still play 80 minutes in NSW Cup unless the game is on the same day as the NRL. Last year he played reserve grade the day after NRL round 24, and two days after round 25. All up he played 13 games in NSW Cup and 14 in the NRL. It's very exciting.

Interestingly, our club has played in 11 grand finals (including the '77 replay) and we have failed to score a first half try in 6 of them.
