Who knows when it will happen again, lap it up.

CHT has always been my guy even when he had major flaws, stoked hes finally coming into his own. When you see your half whacking guys, how can you not want to get on the back of it.

Ali-Dallin, Rog-Lofi… happy with that combo. Please Webby let em cook.

Geez they’ve gotta keep the same team until injury enforced isn’t it? Roger suddenly looks an elite centre

Naynay · Apr 12, 2026

Would love to see Leka and Laban rotate starting I still think leka is the most damaging in the middle.

Also webby mentioned Tb came off with a ginger hammy

If CNK played we lose

He would have passed to DWZ at least

The first half I was thinking we are doing alright if we get down there we are finding a way to get across the line. Just need to defend our line.

The second half we were all over them with the ball. I wasn't expecting that.

Then our defence to finish the game. Not just the scrambling D, the shots they were putting in. Damn I wasn't expecting that.

Metcalf at the back to be the final link in the spine to unlock AKP and others

Man this club when we break a drought it's either really shakey and it ends up being close. Or they make easy work of it and you wonder what the issue has been all of this time.

Sure the Storm aren't the team they were. Still they have been talked up and we still needed to get over the mental hurdle.

Boys did well. Took the early part where it was even. Wore them down like we did the first 3 rounds. Got our confidence up as the game went on and you could see them all putting in on D at the end.

I think it's working out combinations. CHT is the best defensive 6 in the game with Brown. But he doesn't lead the attack the way Mets does. Mets is in the same position Tanah was in last year, coming into a successful team - tough act to follow. His rustiness shows. I think CNK FB, wingers DWZ and AKP, let Leiataua and Pompey run the centres. CHT deserves 6 and Tanah 7. Mets off the bench I reckon. He needs to fit in. He's off the pace right now. TT has a low ceiling. I don't know why he got resigned. Ratcliffe/LeMana/Norris would be better.

Loved Roger's big 'think you can replace me' tackle on Warbrick

Great game, A+ all round

The mental template for our D going forward, can always have this to fall back on when start to struggle

KEEP THAT BACKLINE.
FUCK THE REST.
MAYBE MET 4 BOYD.
OTHERWISE. FUCK WETS. FUCK CNK. FUCK THE OTHER ONE.

Good point they have him at 81 mins on the stats, would be good to have a mic in with the journalist so you can hear the question

Warrior#138 · Apr 12, 2026

A little bit on Melbourne. Seeing Grant, Munster and Hughes denied the possibility of controlling a game for like 70 minutes is all you need to know to diagnose the problem Craig. Their forwards are C- at the minute.
But hey it’s all about US. So good to see us hold our shape at both ends and just pressure a poorer team. So f**king happy right now. Just the best. Love this team!!!

It was TSS. Journo asked about "Tanner" though so I can see the confusion

Adamnz support · Apr 12, 2026

I wouldn’t change a thing. TT made some mistakes but we played so well the 2 mistakes got highlighted even further. Only tricky thing is if we go well next week, do we put Pompey back in the week after. The young guys are awesome!!!!
