Post-Game Discussion Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]

[Waz13]

For once? He has been good the last month or so.

He’s prob been one of our more consistent forwards all year. Has really come on this year burbo.

One thing I am struggling to figure out from last night's game.

We lost Simpkin to a Cat 1 HIA caused by an illegal elbow to his head from Nelson. So why weren't we weren't allowed to activate the 18th player??

We lost a player to a HIA directly caused by foul play. Isn't that supposed to be an automatic activation of the 18th player??

We didn’t need to activate the 18th player - I don’t think we even used our whole 17 as I didn’t see Tommy Talau take the field.

Might have been mentioned but I just noticed in a replay a gloating Munster shove Turbo after Coates last try - what scum they are

It was mentioned, with pics!!

Storm forward Nelson Asofa-Solomona has accepted a two-game ban for a stray elbow to the head of Manly's Jake Simpkin at AAMI Park on Saturday night.

The incident in the 37th minute of the clash resulted in Asofa-Solomona being placed on report and Simpkin leaving the field for a HIA which he failed.

Asofa-Solomona was charged with Grade 2 Dangerous Contact and as it was his second offence he will be suspended for two matches after entering an early guilty plea. Had the Kiwis prop fought the charge and lost he would have miss three games.

"Stray" - what a load of b/s. Makes it sound accidental.

That's insulting! Never seen more intent!
