POST GAME Finals Week 3 - Storm vs Broncos

[MPC]

blair can pack his bags now, what a miserable human being. those late dog shots are garbage.
serious questions need to be asked as to why boyd played!
while ever nikorima plays 7 there will be no premiership.
gillett and moose tried hard as per normal.
for whatever reason jimmy roberts never gets any 2nd phase ball in and around the ruck, ***** me why not - i do not understand it.
ese did the hard yards with offa.

Nikorima played well, you cant blame it on him. There was absolute no support

Which late dog shots? I was fine with all of his hits. Even the ones the commentators carried on about. If halves want to prance around then expect to get snapped.

you are delirious. that late hit on cronk was nothing more than a dog shot. he can pack his bags and **** off to new zealand.

If we were playing Sydney, we'd be in the Grand Final.

The fact is Melbourne is paying unders for a whole bunch of their players.

Are you sure
They were paying unders for players in 2006-2010 as welll

Seriously this so embarrassing 30-0 not to even score against them, **** my life, we wont even get close next year with all these departures.

I dunno, if Bird is playing instead of Monga, we're probably leading at half time

Not probably.

Got beat by a better team. Had the wrong game plan and playing Boyd was wrong. Second time WB has done that from memory. We weren't forecast to make the 8 and have exceeded predictions. Would have started Offa and Thaiday myself. Didn't have a captain in the middle, a real leader. Did well to hold them early but as I forecast, the Storm were poor early and the week off paid off in the last 20. Exactly as I said and about the only thing that turned out right for me ha ha.

Overall, a good year and 12 other teams wished they went that well in 2017

it's been the wrong game plan for 2 years now and also haven't had a leader for that long as well. so who's responsible for getting a good game plan? bennett needs to re-invent his game but at his age he isn't changing anything so it's up to the board to make the changes

Milford in the halves needs to stop, throw every cent spare at cleary or johnson and burn whatever contract they have in place right now

It was lateish

The best thing I take out of this season has been the performance of the forwards in general, especially the younger forwards. It's a shame Arrow and Ese'ese are moving on but Pangai Jnr and Ofahengaue have been enormous for us. I think Bird playing lock would be a blessing as McGuire belongs in the front row and with Blair departing McGuire and Thaiday would be our best starting prop combo.

Because you went in this tirade against Milford when everyone was ragging on Hunt, don't pretend. And remind where I said Milford was great?

Everyone was ragging on Hunt when they should have been ragging on Hunt and Milford. That was my point the entire time. I rarely implied that Hunt was playing well, merely that he was at least on par with Milford.

Nikorima played well, you cant blame it on him. There was absolute no support

im not blaming him, but we wont win a premiership with him at 7. bench cover player is his worth

 

[Alec]

At least we don't have to put with the worst starting front row in the NRL anymore.
Also, what's with Gillett and stiffling our attack? Why can't he run lines? Glenn can run lines, but Gillett just can't most of the time. Can't get any decent ball to Roberts with him in the way there.

I dunno, if Bird is playing instead of Monga, we're probably leading at half time

thing with us we make a mistake and then keep making them its like its all or nothing.

Johnson?

Won't win a premiership with Milford as the controlling half either. If he really can't play with someone else taking charge, then he's the real problem.

Also I think it's about time a serious discussion is had about Oates to the second row. He has been good as a winger, but lately his hands have really started to let him down. Moga's offload in the 2nd wasn't the greatest but any other winger reels that ball in.

 

[Cult]

This I can agree with, but I'd extend it to all season, if not longer. This is why I'm verging on done.

I'm pretty much done too.

 

[Stix]

That was just shit, what a way to finish the season. 30 fucking nil.
Past 2 seasons have been an absolute disappointment.
At least there is always next year.

Thanks too, to all involved in this forum(contributors and management)
You all have kept me sane again this season with your insights and devotion to the team.
Catch you all in the pre season
Go Broncos.
