I reckon Souths have avoided sacking him purely because it would prove the media got it right, they’ve been defiant ever since the Sam Burgess saga, they should have sacked him over the bye. They’ve got Penrith next week, that will be another hefty defeat you would imagine

Oof wow.

Melbourne must have so much of their cap tied up in the 1,6,7,9. It means the storm forward pack is really nothing special at all. Apart from Neslon and Welch the others really have limited credentials.

When you play Melbourne you've gotta bash their forward pack. Don't allow them any go forward and dont give the 1,6,7,9 anything to play off. Those 4 will tear you to shreds all day if you let them.

Once you earn the right to go wide on the storm you can absolutely torch them. We will get to do that to them in the finals this year

100%.

Get on top of the forward pack, and get it wide like Souths just did and there is points on offer vs Melb, who's centres are solid but not amazing.

The average pack is probably why they look to be wrestling even more than usual this season to slow down the opp teams ptb as much as possible.

Absolutely no chance of a comeback here but they are putting up a fight at least.

Trell cannot come back at 1.

Gray looks far more dangerous when he gets the ball, quick across the ground and looks like he could do something.

Looked like Moale assumed they were scoring the play before so didn't even bother trying to get back
