Coates doesn't deserve any more vitriol than Herbie.
You're missing the point buddy......

Redcliffe are just an all round bunch of good guys. Who wouldn't wish Herbie and them well.

Whereas The Storm......

Maintain the rage.

Expect more bullshit like this to go their way. We need to flog them in the middle early.
 
Melbourne have a unique capacity of actively making NRL games worse to watch.

It's even worse when stuff like this goes their way needlessly.
Storm vs souths was probably the worst game on the weekend... both teams just looking for penalties every tackle and storm barely playing football.

Storm had nothing and then Bellamy started taking players off to look for next week... I wonder if they had one eye on the broncos game as it is, because they were hopeless on the weekend.

We did the "blatant calls that fucked the Broncos over" list, we can do a decent one just for Broncos vs Storm games.

* Slater's "drop-kick" try.

* Slater not being penalised for leading with his feet in the tackle on Hannant, preventing the try that would have put us 8 points ahead in that 2008 game. And despite that rule having been brought in specifically because he was a serial offender at it.

* The time Thaiday was deliberately held in the scrum so Slater could run through the gap and score untouched. Replays showing that, yes, Thaiday was being deliberately held well after the scrum was allowed to break, and Slater deliberately running right where Thaiday would have been, but the video ref claiming no interference.

* Matt Gillett deemed to have "taken the advantage", when the Storm bobble the ball in their own in-goal, Gillett catches it and goes to ground it where he stands, and gets it knocked out before he gets it to ground. "He had the opportunity to score a try and therefore advantage has been taken".

Any more? Some serious liberties taken with the rules here (or blatant disregard of them) that is once again occurring far too often to be random ref "errors".
 
Spent time with Kevvie? Mariner a chance of getting a game?

Unsure at this stage but they leave tomorrow so Herbie needs to have some herbs and get better.

I would certainly think Mariner would be the most logical.

I hope Herbie gets better just like Kev did before the Manly game. Not that I don’t want Mariner to fill in for Herbie but it’s just that I don’t want to start against a tougher opponent. He didn’t have success last year but this year, I want him to start successfully. If he starts & nails it with us walking away with W, I’ll be ecstatic.
 
If Herbie is out Melbourne are 100% certain to throw Nelson at the left edge.
Mariner i think would be able to physically handle NAS better. As for smarts - that's a different story.
 
Reasons Why we will beat the storm.
1. We are flying
2. They are not
3. Our hooker doesn’t **** his second rowers sister (that we know of)
