I think I dislike Harry Grant more than any player ever.

I nearly agree with you but Reed Mahoney is still playing.

At least our players are the nicest in the league!

Storm giving up every error and eels still manage to give em a try lmao. Two teams written off in the first round. Wonder if that's ever happened before.

Pity the GF isn't won on being nice.

apparently not - first time two teams put on 50 in first round ... that pass was horrible - there was a parra guy in the gap, threw it past him to warbrick

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

Storm players might pull hammys from running in so many tries.

Warbrick 50 games has come up pretty quickly.

Our injuries the last few years a lot of guys probably haven't played 50 in that time. Guys we debut probably haven't.

Eels can come back now at 56-6. They've started to sub off the stars for the storm.

How is the 1.3m a year superstar franchise player going?

Warbrick on 250k is a bargain

Volkmann has had some shitty kicks and not been able to organize very well. Although I'd expect the 6 to at least be helping out with that so cannot blame him too much.

 

[Po11um]

All these blowouts boring , want a competitive league

 

[roguei]

I do not rate wishart at all for the storm. Looks awful this game and looked awful vs us in the trial.

About 450k

 

[snake77]

Playing the Storm in round 1 is just as bad as ANZAC Day.

See when he comes off contract as he's an international now. Storm won't pay overs for a winger. If he gets big offers they will likely let him go and develop the next guy.

$250k for a few years he could retire quite well in Kawerau.

Eels are in for a rough one with there draw. 2 games vs panthers, 2x broncos, 2x eagles, 2x dogs and another vs storm. Only saving grace for them is that they play sharks only once.

Hey-zues there have been some thrashings in the first round.

I mean, we are screwed, but cowboys and eels fans are surely in a worse place, right?

Right?

I rate our opponent worse than theirs, but they did lose by more. .
