I need to preface this with ā€˜I’m NOT a storm hater.’ They grate me at times simply because they have been as good as they have been for as long as they have been, but that owes more to the fact that they specifically have been so hard for my own team to beat particularly in big games since that famous grand final.

But I don’t dislike many if any of their players and I rate most of them I think reasonably fairly. Except for one.

NAS.

Has he ever actually been THAT good? Or does he just have a reputation because he’s a giant? Because to me pound for pound he’s never been much beyond a reasonable player. For someone of his size he should be an absolute wrecking ball. Aside from the odd big charge from close range I don’t think he’s ever been that player. And given what he costs them - more and more these days - he definitely doesn’t repay it.

NAS is a player who seems to bash up on weak opposition.
When the opposition is better, he either goes missing or does idiotic things

Always thought for his size he isn't that strong.
 
I always thought Cam Munster was a pretty decent defender, but he was very poor in that department. Pap too, was far from his best. Brisbane well-deserved winners. I didn't have a problem with most of the decisions, but then, I quite like Atkins, which I believe puts me in a minority here.

Anyone else giddy about the well earned triple spoon trilogy getting passed along tomorrow?
That weight off is something I can’t remember anymore 🤣

Do we still give it to the titans or fall over and let the knights take it. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Vale Kieran Foran. I remember, years ago, on this forum, saying how much he was pea in a pod with his old team-mate Tommy. Neither were the greatest natural talents, but both were warriors that you'd want on your side.
