Anyone who thought that was going to be an easy 2 points was dead set kidding.
Parra
-led storm 18-0 and just got run down
-with any luck at all could have beaten saints,melbourne,manly twice and brisbane this year.lost or drew all in wire to wire thrillers.probably performed as well as anyone against quality opposition with no luck.
-flogged the tigers 22-6 and beat cowboys 22-20
-always lift against Manly
-were coming off an incredibly emabarrassing loss
Funny how Melbourne come from behind after playing like cats and it is "great culture" and "never say die" and we have a come from behind win and it is given short shrift by all and sundry.
The NRL comp is a week by week proposition with 100% required each week.We did not play well but found a way to win which good sides do.
I dont think we win the comp this year because our halves need one more year of combinations and and our front row rotation is now simply ordinary with King gone but one lackluste performance against the slime is hardly something to cry about.We were great last week against a roosters side who should have got the tigers and had shown some form leading into the game but that is just thrown out the window.Get a grip and enjoy the ride.We will come up a little short in all likelihood but it has been a pleasant ride for sure this year.
