Teams play better against us in general though, we're terrible lol.
Yeah thanks for stating the obvious, we know that, but I'm just saying usually when the storm have a lot of injuries they not only play better than us like they usually do, but play out of their skin against us when they have injuries.

I was listening to the weekend review this morning and they highlight Flanagan is a third rate half for any other team and needs to craft in England. I feel for the guy he is a turtle on a post.

Radio cowboys. Big woopity. I love how all the vultures come out for the 'gun when Burton had the worst game by a half in the NRL era.

I'd be surprised if any club picked him up for reserve grade.

Don’t disagree he was woeful but for some reason he wasn’t mentioned and it was triple J btw. Since I know you aren’t him I feel no need to apologise. I truly do feel for the actual guy and I wonder if he didn’t have his father where he would of ended up because I doubt it would of been football.

Morrin should be top 30 and playing lock IMO. I like brown but he offers nothing there
Even tho he isn't top 30 (?) he's named on the extended bench so I assume we could play him. I think it'd be between him and Tanner tho.

Storm depth isn't what it used to be though, they look very weak right now. Some of the guys on their bench wouldn't even make our 17 right now imo.

Morrin was quite poor in reserve grade. Brown playing lock isn't an issue though, the issue is Brown starting at lock playing 50m+. Just start RFM in the middle and Preston on the edge.

I picked something up that I thought was worth noting from the NRL Daily Telegraph Podcast yesterday.

Apparently Kyle Flannagan was scheduled to do media on Monday but the club pulled him out of it.
Could mean absolutely nothing, but I found it more interesting after seeing K.O named in the squad.

Reed mentions it at around 35min mark.

Not sure what to make of K.O being named but I don't think it would be to fill Flanagan's space on the right, otherwise I thought they would've played him in NSW cup last week on the right.

If they drop Flanagan then I'm not sure which way they go
Burton Left half, Brown Right Half, K.O. to bench???
I don't know!!!
