CROSS FORUM NRL Round 8 Discussion

the storm are far from convincing. Can't wait to see how they handle a big, mobile pack in a finals scenario without their hometown refereeing advantage
 
Have they quietly gone back to the old grounding interpretation ... because there have been a few similar ruled as no try this year, when they would have been given for the last couple of years
 
The day will come when NAS actually plays the ball correctly 🤣
 
Milne could spend a few weeks on the sidelines for that ... it was really bad. surprised there was no sin bin
 
What did he do?

he was in a tackle on Munster with at least 2 others. Munster has effectively been held upright.

Milne then releases his grip on the tackle. sees an opening at Munsters legs, Takes aim then dives straight at the legs of Munster ... who is being held upright and not really moving forward either.

it was literally the text book definition of a cannon ball tackle. Munster even came away limping
 
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.
just like the first finals game last year at suncorp!

That too in the 80th minute of the game, it was a blatant attempt to injure.

Be interesting to see what they do about it.
 
Full strength we'll smack storm like we did in the finals last year. Their squad is ass outside of the spine. The fact we almost beat then with 4 of our star players out is almost sad.
