Just announced that Tohu Harris is out now for up to 2 months.

Compared to last years team, Storm look very skinny.

No Proctor - he was deadly with Cronk on the right hand side especially close to the try line. They would isolate the oppositions half and he would dive over and score easily.

No Slater apparently for round 1.

No Tohu Harris now.

No Blake Green.

Ado Carr is a down grade from Korabete imo.

Surely we get a win in round 1

Surely we are due to fire up at Belmore as well.

The betting markets are tightening up too we were $2.25 this morning into $2.00 now

Tohu Harris - Broken foot.
Billy Slater - I'll believe it when I see the team run out. I reckon it could be a smokey.

BUT
1. At Belmore
and
2. If we go in over confident we will lose.

I don't get over confident about games anymore.

Be good to beat Storm at Belmore which means we have come full circle

Let's get real fellas, whilst we are a bit of a bogey team for the Storm and whilst they do have some troops out, we've lost to them during origin without Cronk/Smith/Slater so it's going to be a big challenge first up.

They still have a strong team on paper and we all know they get up for 100% of their games. Their spine is superior to ours and so our forwards will need to dominate and hopefully the lads play some enterprising footy because that's pretty much the only way to beat the storm. A bit of luck also helps!
