PRE-GAME Round 15 - Storm vs Broncos

[Renegade]

Some people are way too confident going in to this game.

Yeah I heard that if the fans reach a certain level of confidence a pager goes off in the dressing room and the lads hit the piss before the game knowing it's already in the bag, so we'd better not get too confident, don't want that to happen now do we?

I would like it if Vidot plays next to Reed.

I think it's a more dangerous combo then Reed/Maranta.

Don't agree... Maranta has shown so much more potential on the left side. Please leave him there!

Besides, Vidot has also always performed better on the right side, even if his last game was great on the left.

i don't see any reason why we shouldn't be confident going into this game, in my opinion if we are to lose we will have not played anywhere near our potential.

cronk is a huge loss for the storm and if parramatta can do them on their home turf then i would think we should get the job done with our spine completely intact, we aren't top of the table for no reason and if we can't beat a team with half their spine missing we shouldn't consider ourselves a premiership threat regardless of our poor record against melbourne.

that said im very excited to see milford in form during a day game, alot of his best performances for the raiders were during the day and our unpredictable style of attack should go well, looking for a similar performance to when we towelled up manly last year on a sunday arvo with plenty of offloads and hunt and milford tearing the storms makeshift halves pairing to shreds.

lets put this storm hoodoo to bed !

 

[Bull Shark]

felt a LOT more confident about this game until we became $1.60 favourites ....

 

[Rabbir]

Well now we are $1.55 favourites.

Where else are the punters meant to put their money?? Two of their three best players are forcibly out and our coach has by his own device decided to rest our two best players...

 

[noisetheory]

excited to see kahu at right centre. i hope he has a cracking game there.

Is Smithy backing up?

He is backing up.

 

[Alec]

We should win this. If we don't, we probably ended up playing well below par.

Apparently Kahu is captain? Good luck to him!

 

[noisetheory]

thaiday did the toss

 

[theshed]

Let's be honest, if we don't win this we should be very embarrassed as a club.
