Don't think we will see Tommy again this season, I imagine Wright to fullback , Parker brought up to the wing.

Will John play 5/8 or Parcell be fit and Api play 5/8

with Lyon at centre

Bad game to get the storm. Don't usually loose 2 in a row.

We'll know by about 4.30 pm if knights have sprung an upset over Titans.
Storm are on short turnaround, so we are not without hope of an upset of our own.

I've had this feeling for a while now that we'd upset a big name side , and in fact have stated it a few times.

I think we always lift v Storm, especially at home , and I've seen enough in recent weeks to think it's on the cards, even without Tommy ( who lets face it probably shouldn't have played last week, and was just a passenger most of the game).

Bold prediction but yes I think we can do it!!

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Could go one of two ways. They might end up getting trampled if morale starts to sag at all.

Or ... they might play with a more relaxed 'give em hell/nothing to lose' attitude and put some points on. Even with players missing, this is the more likely scenario. Sure hope so anyway!

 

[The Who]

If we don't have Tom Turbo or Tafua I give us NO chance. These two are the only backs with penetration. Add to this injured list is the Door-puncher who, if nothing else, is reasonably quick.
Storm will hold us in the forwards and carve us up in the backs.

 

[Fluffy]

We will probably be forced to play Brown in the centres and push Williame to the wing.

 

[court83]

so did snake get his surgery or not???
I dont care if he slaps barrett in the face at every training session, if hes fit to play and we sit him out while tom,walker and tafua are all missing as well we should be looked at for tanking imo... surely if fit he plays regardless of attitude

 

[andyvb]

Time to bring in hopa, knight or Meehan and Lewis brown can go to centre

We are short on backs, not forwards.

Snake to make a surprise reappearance,
Green in for the Doorman and Parker for Jorge

[davohan123]

For me
Snake in fit
2 more games at brookvale oval and he will be done.
Think this game will be close 1st half but storm will be winning by a small margin of 8

Wish I could make this game but heading out to ANZ stadium in the members stand for the wallabies vs All blacks.

Not going to miss killers last game at home though, I don't think this week will be the upset but next week sending killer out a winner is a must.

The Doorman lol

 

[STSK]

Hopefully Darcy, Marty, Api, and AFB give a lot of cheek and rough them up. Aggravating the Storm big boys, hopefully taunt them into doing some dumb **** that leads to suspensions.
