Interesting how long Hook left him on. I hope it forces Macca to lift a bit

Showed a lot more guts then the previous rounds. Heartbreaking to lose. But what was the difference? A 6 point bullshit try when Thaiday was held back in the scrum. Poor refereeing decides a game yet again!
Does anyone have a hoff update?

Re: Round 4 - Broncos vs.Storm - Post Match Discussion
I've said it before on here, Hunt is an absolute gem of a player and needs to be given some opportunity. IMO Prince needs to go and Hunt slot in at halfback, I've never wanted Prince at all since we found out he was coming. I just want to know where was that passing game in the first half?? It reminded me of the Storm and Bulldogs games last year.

Re: Round 4 - Broncos vs.Storm - Post Match Discussion
Shame Hoffman has injured his calf. He was going so well. Our forwards were excellent. A few silly mistakes crept in though. McCullough needs to lift his game or ship out IMO. He was terrible but worked hard in defence. Still need to back it up next week for this weeks performance to matter at all though.

Thaiday finally showed some guts leading from the front and look what happened. It was like a whole different team out there.

I really rate Hunt. We were a much better side with him on the park tonight. I'd still love to see him get a crack in the 7.

Wrong one to miss. Watch it asap on nrl.com! We played or hearts out. Bad calls cost us but probably lifted the boys.

Yeah I gained respect tonight for him as a captain, It's the first time I reckon he really lifted the side through his actions and I think he showed tonight he is capable as a prop.

to just look at positives.. that was probably the most the storm have been pushed so far this season so we should be proud of that.

Thank you! It's great to talk about the game with fellow supporters! They are far and few between in NSW!!!
Hoffman had a blinder! I was first to criticise the move from fullback to wing but he's proving a true spectacle in that position!

Re: Round 4 - Broncos vs.Storm - Post Match Discussion
20-12 second half against the premiership favourites. Despite losing 2 players to injury. Can't knock that!
Take out the Slater try from the obstruction and it's 28-26.
Redeemed themselves.
Far from perfect, but they've shown they can do it against the best. Without Hodges. Just need to do it for 80 minutes.

I wouldn't say Macca was terrible, he just wasn't as good as hunt. Hunt needs to be in the halves ASAP, hopefull after tonight that happens.

Well played by the Broncos in the second half and hopefully they'll learn from that poor end to the game, not completing 3 sets in a row. I think Norman showed what value a fullback with some playmaking ability can have.
We could've done with 10 of tonight's points last week....

I'm devo that Hoffman is injured, man he has been absolutely great this year since moving to the wing.
I know Reed has copped shit but his defence is just top class and he did set up Hoffy thrice.
Kahu showed some positive signs, maybe he'll nab the wing spot near Hodgo next week?
Stagg being gone for a few weeks might be a good thing, get some other guys a shot in the top grade.
I'm so proud of the effort, a win would've been amazing but a 6 point loss to the benchmark team, that's something to be proud of. We did better than any other team that has played Melbourne to date. That gives me a lot of hope for the season ahead. Thaiday had his finest game as captain, finally showed some real passion in that role.
Next week - I think we should dump Macca to the bench, Hunt to 7, Wallace to 9. I seriously think that needs to happen.
