The salary cap is working. Clubs like Penrith, Eels, Storm were unable to keep all their star players. We've now got Mahoney and Kikau and Sutton. Storm lost Kafausi, Bromwich bros, Brandon Smith. We have TPJ and Thompson out, they have Papy and Munster out.
Overall we've got relatively better compared to the Storm with all the player movements.
It wasn't skill level though, it was effort, and lack thereof for 60 minutes that cost the Storm said Bellamy.
Storm were equal 2nd favourites for the premiership going into this weekend. Unless Munster and Papy get on the field, they won't make top 4 though.
Our effort was there, we scored run in tries and we will grow in confidence from that win I hope. We played the same style tonight that Potter had us playing later last season. I wouldn't be crediting CC too much with our try scoring ability tonight, more likely Potter given more reign by CC during the sessions this last week.
How repeatable today's A and D effort will be, lets see next week.
Burton still didn't look like a half, Flanno set up a couple of tries tho. We need Perham and Burton to be going into the line creating space for the runners. At least Burton played both sides of the ruck tonight.
Green shoots. Well done Dogs.
