OK, lest I be accused of sour grapes: the storm totally dominated us and deserved their victory last night. But.......
They are a sham team dreamt up over a long corporate lunch as part of a news limited strategic marketing plan and imposed like a carbuncle on the ass of the NRL.
That they then went on to fundamentally change rugby league into a game of percentages, ruck domination and crab like one dimensional structures just adds insult to injury. The storm don't so much outplay you as wear you down and choke you.
Despite all their success they muster almost no interest in their city and will probably fold once Bellamy and the big three from queensland leave. The grand final will be a typical Storm occasion - a whole lot of opposition fans, no storm fans, a lousy atmosphere and probably another premiership for a city that doesnt give a s**t and holds the NRL in contempt.
