Haha only in NRL does a ball clearly go backwards but it's deemed to have traveled forward lol

Are you talking about Sua's chip and chase? Yes, clearly backwards.

Great effort by Coates and Anderson to stop a try after Anderson dropped the bomb.

Would have been good to keep them scoreless in second half.

But great effort in second half, unfortunately it might have ramifications for the rest of the season.

We started the day with Munster and Wishart in the halves then we had Anderson and Wishart and then finished with Anderson and Meaney.

Not sure which blunt crayon records the stats on nrl.com but they've given Loiero 3 kicks in general play and Meaney 0.

Our guys tried their guts out in the second half. More than a few out of position too. Parra we’re diabolical. Looked like they quit on their coach.

Well, that aged well . . .

Maybe we need to trust Bellamy to know what he's doing!?

You're starting to remind me of Lotti.

So clearly it was Cam Munster holding back this Storm team from rugby league greatness 🤣🤣🤣

Wow - epic performance given the circumstances.

Inspirational effort from Grant as skipper and lots of other big games across the park.

Obvious a blow to lose Munny. Hopefully he can get a long term fix (op) - playing busted has not been good for him

Yeah, Bellamy knew Coates would go off with a HIA, he just knew right? ::)

As for Warbrick, does scoring one decent try undo all the bad he brings every single week?

Have we ever had a second rower as good in the air as Katoa? Hoffy maybe, but I think Katoa might be a better aerialist.
