It's probably just @Kaz and he's fuming because he had tickets or something

This does make sense actually.

Though we're a thick bunch here. @Kaz could be lying on the floor, clinging to life with his bowel spectacularly exploded all over the wall beside him, and we'd still be crowding around him going "TELL US KAZ, WHO?!?!?!?"
 
Playing Melbourne this time of year is the perfect test to see how you're really going and if you're a genuine contender or not. That is unless you're Brisbane who are incapable of beating them.

All jokes aside, the storm have looked beatable all year which makes me worried tonight will be the night they pull it together and blow us off the park.

To beat the storm you need to be diciplined, and this year more so then ever. You give them a penalty, 6 again or cheap turnover you can basically guarantee they'll turn it into points. On the other hand i also feel like the storm are vulnerable to attacking (think Canberra) and high risk/flashy (think phins) styles of footy. However is the price you pay if you get that style of footy wrong worth the risk?

I agree with most peoples thoughts that we absolutely need to make Harry Grant work hard in defence to take away from his attack. I'd also like to see us do similar to what Moses did to us and kick deep and early, chase hard and work to keep them in their half. Dont give Harry the opportunity to lay on a try within our 10 meter line and don't give them a chance to kick for their arial threats.

With all of that said, i haven't seen any changes this year that would result in a result any other then a 40-10 type victory for Melbourne in this one.

Yeah if it's Kaz I hope you're ok .
Hope it was a smaller glass bottle and not the 4 litre plastic type.
 
Get the baseball bat out Madge! !

Might as well book Bali for Saturday if we lose 40-10 …
