*Spoiler* Knights V Storm

The Storm had a very off night.

Most things they touched turned to shyte.

Storm have played bad before but not that bad.

Billy and Geyer had shockers. Nothing went right for the Stormers tonight.
Beware the weeks ahead

Man what happen to the Storminators???

So guys, what did Kinghts do that other teams could possibly emulate against the Storm?

Storm imploded just as much as anything.

As for the knights they targeted the edges very heavily with face balls and kicks to the wings and went there early in the count. Good tactics because the Storm had to chase out harder than usual and it pulled their midfield defence apart.

The knights then attacked them down the middle and tried to keep the ball alive.

The knights didn't play a perfect game by any means but they stuck to the game plan and really hassled them in D as well.

damn! Unfortunatly the Broncos can't emulate that...

Yes they can - they just have to want to, and then go out and do it. We have the players.

And Dexter summed up a good strategy for really pressuring the Storm (and Knights, and Sharks, and Manly and Roosters, and Dragons.)

If we can't and/or don't, we're cannon fodder.

Tomorrow's game is good practice and will tell a lot about our future this year.

Out-enthuse them it seems. I didnt watch the game as I was at the Parra game but I saw it when it was 17-10 with 10mins to go. It seemed as though the Knights just wanted it more

I still think back to the Cowboys game in round 3. The Broncos absolutely got in their faces and pissed them off. The Cows had set after set attacking the Broncos and they had zero room to do anything.

The Broncos need that level of intensity to go close to Storm (who are >>>>>>> attacking team than Cowboys).

Knights just played their grand final. Excellent.

 

[Dexter]

Knights just played their grand final. Excellent.

Or they just convinced themselves they can beat anybody. Self belief is a pretty good thing to have at this time of the year.

Why isn't the Knights player who grabbed Billy Slaters (to put it politely)penis getting the wrap and also Matt Hilder for spitting on Quinn?
They may be Storm players but gees are Knights so protected.

 

[bianc]

I know that but how long did Hoppa have to keep doing his dirty trick before anything was done.
I do hope they watch this perv.

 

[Hamm.0]

It wasn't an intentional molestation.

 

[bianc]

Well he really made sure he got a hand full.
