Melbourne in the box seat for prems. We are realistically in a rebuild and missing both starting wingers and have rookie halves.
More games together for 6/7/9 and fix the second row and we are looking great. I think things are still on the up.

I actually think we arent horrendous.
Jerome Hughes is just fucking incredible.
Plenty to work on.

Reality check 
I hate Melbourne. But I have to give it to them. That was a professional display from a professional club. Until we can play like that game after game after game we're dreaming if we think we're premier contenders

firstly,
erin clark is buy of the year.
so stoked to see him matured and back here playing his best football.
secondly,
ugly all round from our boys.
the young bucks gave it everything, and there was a couple of highlights, but it was a shitty afternoon all round really.
fuck it, still looking NICE on the ladder.
roll the broncos next week and get back on track.
anyway, wish me luck. i’m off to delete another 700 beers.

I’ll never forget this. Here we are, a battered beaten club. Now I know Smith Bellamy and Hoffman were coming from a space of good intentions - but this is the moment during the covid years that our soul was stripped from us. 2 years later we go to AAMI park for Anzac Day with our team in bits after being away from home for 2 years and we get battered 70-10. Then… Coates last year. Another moment that has left permanent mental scars.
The Melbourne Storm are a good team and a proud club led by good people. But they are also ruthless grubs who love to shovel salt into gaping wounds. The wound they opened up in 2020 has never closed for me - and won’t until we do to them what they have done to us.
Sometimes you go on a long losing streak and each game, improvements are made which means you get closer and closer to a win. Robbie Deans taught me this. It’s about continuing to work towards improving which eventually will get you that win.
I think today might be the day we exorcise at least one of those demons. It is time the streak is put to bed. It’s about time we as Warriors take back our mana. Our pride. Our soul.
We take back what’s rightfully ours. What Cameron smith, Craig Bellamy and co stole from us during Covid.
This is our moment of redemption.
I hope our team runs out today with belief, dignity and courage and plays as a unified team to batter, rattle and unhinge this Storm team. We defend our line like we are defending our honour.
It’s time to finish this once and for all.
The grave has been dug. Time to bury the storm and their curse over us.
Erin's 100th. Mets had a baby. Jacko got engaged. Plenty of reasons to end the streak at 16 and shock the nrl world tomorrow. It's time. Can't wait to eat tomorrow!
On Jye Linnane, I watched him play for Kurri Kurri a couple of years ago and he killed it against a very strong The Entrance Tigers team stacked with NSW Cup and former NRL talent at the tender age of 17 and looked pretty good.
There’s a lot of people in the Newcastle and hunter area that rate him highly so it’s good we are giving him a chance.
We’ve gone after a few young Aussie halves so hopefully a few of them can kick on.

Very close to grabbing him before Covid hit. Can’t see why we wouldn’t approach him again, espeically now he’s won a comp and will prob get another this year.
Anyone watch the Levels Network Podcast yesterday?
They read a comment about how during the bye weekend JFH did a camp for young kids in his home town.

One of either Matty or Andrew Johns annoited Jye Linnane as the next big thing and long term half at the Knights, floated between 6 & 7.
He linked well with Fletcher Sharpe as a 17 yr old playing Under 21’s. Worth a punt in my opinion., even with ACL injuries.

Boys coming into Melbourne taken from my house.
I don't think this kid will be taking the 6 jersey or is at all brought over for. I can only assume it's the exact same as Healy. He is not taking the 9 off of egan for as long egan is fit to play. It's a devlopment signing, i don't see an issue with it nor do i see it taking up to much space. Iron sharpens iron and such.
Poor kid is getting hammered due to us being hyped up by imaginary and unlikely signings.
Certainly an interesting move due to the ACL injuries but unfortunately the club needs to take these risks on young Australian halves on cheap contracts due to having zero production of viable NRL halves from New Zealand.

Jye Linnane signed
The signing we’ve all been waiting for!
Some posters clearly haven’t watched Joey Manu closely enough. When James Tedesco — arguably the biggest ball hog the NRL has seen — was out, Manu stepped up with exceptional skill and leadership.
He deserves to be a focal point at any club. I’d slot him in at No. 1, 3, 4, or 6 without hesitation. An incredible athlete with size, skill, and versatility. Just imagine him linking up and learning from RTS, and having the same influence on Rocco and Ali that JFH and Barney will instilled in our young forwards.
We need to think outside the box and consider the legacy these players will leave on our young stars long-term. KP is all about KP — a bit like DCE, SJ, and Walsh. For me, Manu is the standout among all the rumored signings. No question.
I still have this weird Nathan Cleary vibe.
