Garrick
I'd forgotten that in the afterglow of our victory, but yes, that was typical Melbourne Storm bullsh#t. I have never seen anyone do that to a kicker in a game of rugby league. And Reuben didn't look happy about it either.- Ron E. Gibbs

Pre-Game Bulldogs V Manly [Round 21, 2025]
I think they got the transcription of that quote from Seibold wrong. Watching the press conference, pretty sure he said Jake "doesn't have a mark on his face". Sounds like they were confident he didn't show any category 1 symptoms and could have played on. Which would make it crazy for him not...- Ron E. Gibbs

The Jazz thread ... all that Jazz
I was sceptical when we signed him, but he's been up there with our best forwards all year. Seems like a great fit with the rest of the boys, too, so I will be very sad to see "The Bald Eagle" go. Shows what toughness and effort can bring to a team.- Ron E. Gibbs

Post-Game Discussion Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
Had a feeling we'd put in a big effort after getting some confidence back and coming off the bye, and I thought our first half was incredible. But once they got that runaway Coates try against the run of play, I knew we were in trouble. And when it was 16-all I didn't think we'd find another...- Ron E. Gibbs

The Daly Cherrygraph
Pretty sure he closed his eyes and hoped for the best (I'd do the same thing), but yes, it was a great tackle. And he's always had it in him. His one-on-one defence has never been a problem. It's his defensive reads - just being out of sync with the rest of the defence on his side of the field -...- Ron E. Gibbs

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
Get your point, danny-boy, and not having a go at all, but I think it's just something Fox does after the last of the Super Saturday games. Usually they get away from the ground quickly and throw to Matty Johns, but on the last game of Saturday night they talk to a bunch of players and often the...- Ron E. Gibbs

MVP: Rd 20 v Storm
3. Garrick. All effort, all heart. That was the best chase for no result I have ever seen. 2. Jake. So happy he's found his defensive mojo again. 1. TKO. Huge metres. Big ups for the backrowers and halves, too: Burbo was excellent and Waddell ran hard and made some great tackles as well. Brooks...- Ron E. Gibbs

Game Day: Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
With apologies to Kurt Capewell, we know Melbourne are going to come at us hard after the break. We have to go at them - harder. (Again, with apologies to Kurt Capewell.)- Ron E. Gibbs

Game Day: Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
Nah, I love the way Tom is playing at centre right now, popping up on both sides of the field, terrifying the defence. And Lehi is playing great as well. Why change it?- Ron E. Gibbs

All NRL Games [Round 20, 2025]
Bad luck for that Dragons winger, and for the Dragons. Shuffling the backline around when a winger goes down is never a good thing.- Ron E. Gibbs

Game Day: Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
Or in temperate weather. Or the heat. I know we're still light on in the forwards, but we've had enough time now to work through the DCE stuff and figure out how to play. I'm expecting us to be competitive and at the very least to make a game of it. You want to show us you're not just fodder...- Ron E. Gibbs

All NRL Games [Round 20, 2025]
And I thought our right edge defence was bad. Cowboys have taken poor reads and players going missing (Jeremiah Nanai - I'm looking at you, or more correctly at the big empty spaces where you should be) to a whole new level.- Ron E. Gibbs

2026 recruitment & retention
Ah, the glory days of Gifty, and Nik Kosef before him! I actually think Nathan Brown has showed glimpses of being a good ball-playing forward, but he's not exactly the future as far as our pack goes. Outside of that, I know Lehi is not a forward but again I've seen some nice work as a ball...- Ron E. Gibbs

Pre-Game Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
Main problem is that they are not easily flustered, while we are. But we are definitely a chance. Jahrome Hughes will be the key for them, I reckon, although their backrowers also scare me.- Ron E. Gibbs

Des Hasler retiring
Reports suggested that Dessie's contract allowed the Titans to sack him as soon as it was mathematically impossible for the team to make the finals - which, with the loss to the Broncos, is now the case. So they wouldn't need to pay him out. But yeah, my guess is he'll see out the season and...- Ron E. Gibbs

Des Hasler retiring
Ah, Des! I'll always remember you as a premiership-winning coach and player, as well as a vexatious litigant. Just had a thought watching Dessie's potentially final 80 minutes as an NRL coach… I know the Titans were smart enough to put performance clauses in his contract (although not smart...- Ron E. Gibbs
