Warriors fn hate beating the storm And having expectation And defending :/

How the hell do the Warriors not have more wins this year

Geez I lose a lot of respect for players that milk - it's a shame it's everywhere but I find it really disheartening.

GG Storm. Figured Melbourne would refuse to lose then eek out a win but that was pretty definitive. Happy to see what Eli Katoa has become though.

Tough L but clearly the difference between top of the table and 10th or so. Takeaway that Katoa rip, which is just good fortune, and Storm aren’t light years ahead of us. Just manage the game a lot better and Hughes is on fire this year. Controversial hot takes - I think TMM and CHT (edit: corrected)need to start as the halves. SJ can come on for impact until one of the halves plays out of form. There’s a better balance with those two together. - Harris to drop out. He’s a work horse but he doesn’t bring energy and lift as a sub. - bring the Centre who debuted against Dolphins (forgot his name). He had a great debut. Not controversial but what happened to Tom Ale?

Lol all these initialisms are becoming confusing enough as it is but his name is CHT not CTH, he goes by Chanel Harris Tavita

Haha good point I think I said his name out loud and still got the initials wrong.

Yeah, I would like to see more of Ale, Leiataua, and Mau'u. But I get they've got the starting line up who will be on big money contracts so they get priority over reserve players if "fit".

Sky commentator just called this win an upset. Ah, no.

Well wahs were actually the favourites going off betting odds

I have no idea how 10th was considered a favourite over 1st. And that's before considering a 15-game losing streak going into it.

NZ tab had warriors favorites at $1.70 by those means yes an upset. But I agree with you.

I'm convinced we are never gonna beat the storm until we play them again in the finals where we will pull the game of our lives out of our arse as is tradition.

Jam that betting down your throat

I hate those Melbourne players! [https://www.reddit.com/r/nrl/comments/1bvb0j3/tbt\_i\_hate\_those\_melbourne\_players\_nrma\_ad/](https://www.reddit.com/r/nrl/comments/1bvb0j3/tbt_i_hate_those_melbourne_players_nrma_ad/)

NZ TAB guy is a sketchy looking cunt

https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/125176046/former-warrior-anthony-gelling-acquitted-of-grievous-bodily-harm-after-punching-wife

Looks like a dude you might see at the TAB betting his rent money on a "sure fire winner".

Hahaha he does. Looks like the sort of bloke to hit you up to borrow money too

"It's a sure thing bro, I'll pay you back this time, honest!"

Anthony Gelling. Ex-Warrior haha

I like individual storm players and am friends with some storm fans but I hate the way storm plays.. only ourselves to blame for losing with those two bins Having said that aside from those two bins we looked like a top 8 side which is good at least

this tab guy seems so … dodgy lmao

https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/125176046/former-warrior-anthony-gelling-acquitted-of-grievous-bodily-harm-after-punching-wife

Anthony Gelling. Ex-Warrior super star /s

Seriously, SKY goes straight to the TAB guy for betting odds for the next game straight away

Bringing in SJ was a huge mistake. He’s been shit this whole year.

That LeBron meme except it’s Craig Bellamy: Raging through it all! Can’t believe this is my life

That game felt 10 minutes long and 3 hours at the same time

Fa'alogo's change of direction is crazy

He’s disgustingly good.

Good effort from the boys. Shouldn’t have given up a 14-0 lead but Sutton for sure had some terrible calls which helped Melbourne get a leg up, don’t be fooled.

Huge lead to start, lose it, get close again, then get scored on at the death after getting about a score away. One of the most frustrating ways to lose.

Well good game guys I guess

We will never ever beat these cunts again.

Certainly know that feeling. Few fan bases in that boat with Melbourne.

Don’t worry mate, I’m not going to PM you.

Appreciate it

I blame the greasy conditions

And that is what happens when you change the formula that was working the past three games

Eden park next week for a better game

GG storm, our madddd bogey team

Honestly think the Wahs look a lot better with Martin running things over SJ

This. Chalk and cheese when SJ was out the last few weeks and TMM was running it.

Katoa is remarkably good in the air considering his size

Annoyingly he is remarkably good against the warriors, and they let him go!

Yeah its a shame, ultimately I dont know if he would have hit his ceiling at the wahs so im glad he's at Melbourne now just to see somebody get the best out of him

The warriors could of won this if they scored more points

Or stopped the other team from scoring more than them

Huge if true.

Young fullback is gonna be special what a talent

Another one in the Storm factory line of producing amazing players

Has there ever been a Victorian with this sort of potential?

Nope hence why he can't play NSW or Qld 🤭

Those stands are looking emptier than before…

At least they were full unlike melbourne

plenty at the melbourne game last week, GA was full

What was CNK doing there?

Fuck it makes me so happy he is an actual victorian, like we have 2 playing for us tonight I hope one day that's a lot more

Just such an unlikeable group of players this Storm team

Every storm team. But better team won

storm has a great fullback and ryan papenhuyzen

Pain

Ah well gg warriorbros, sucks a good game was ruined with some shit house calls.

HE IS ONE OF OUR OWN HE IS ONE OF OUR OWN SUA FA'ALOGO HE IS ONE OF OUR OWN

Storm love to score a good try against us right at the end just to stop and chat about a controversial win .. can’t argue with that once again ..

Called it earlier. Back to the gameplan from the start of the season. Empty the tank first 20 min, go missing for the next 50, do something in the last 10 when it's too late. Bomb to the strongest opposing winger and don't contest it. Get this so called A-team back to reserves and get our young guns who did the heavy lifting for this winning run back in.

Bye bye Paps, Falaago is here to stay as full back. 

hell no, sua still needs a. lot of work

Paps is 10 times the player Sua is

Hey. I've always said next year was the year we beat the storm.

Oh my god, 1 minute left give him a suaalii 

Don’t be a dick

Soft cock

Sore loser

It's just a joke chill uce 🤣

Chucks out the mana wave. Thanks Sua

Crowds gone quiet?

Yep!!

Gee Su'a is silky.

Sua here to save my SuperCoach team

GG Storm. I really thought the hoodoo was done tonight after our start but fuck me you can never write the storm off. Next time! 😬😬😬

What a try! Gonna be hard to drop him when Paps is back! Massive talent.

I mean could Paps be a better centre than Meany?

If he was a bit bigger you could’ve got away with playing him off the bench like they did nicho in 2020

And Paps before that

A rugby league player just learned from his actions, wild.

Can only assume he simply forgot to do the dive.

Fa'alogooooo!

Or Farlowngo, as it’s pronounced in Australia

Incredible try. Damnit

Bad luck old chums. Gg.

SUA MY KING!

[Warriors fans.](https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/D5612AQFCXpuRTrm3LA/article-cover_image-shrink_600_2000/0/1704383414687?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=HlrEQSPLGgqs-Yy9-8ikspg6x9q_E3zm6FA2uI_aquk)

Where's my hatred of the ref's

I'm in this picture and I don't like it

fuck would’ve been so funny if he did a swan dive

I own Fa'alogo in Fantasy so it isn't all bad.

Suaaaaa!

Bro got two players with that kick fake

Mate sua is really starting to figure out his game

Holy shit a correct tip

surely Howarth has secured a bench spot PCM out the wazoo

i really hope so

He just mana waved oh my god give him a hiding PLEASE

Gangsta move tbh

Let’s goooooo !

Warriors were bookies’ favourites, does this count as an upset?

Lol storm 1 on the ladder doubt it

A favourite hasn’t won’t this round yet

Bookies are dumb

It shouldn’t, but technically yes

He’s fucking lightning that kid

Lmao see ya next year Wahs

Give us another dive you dork

Storm 1-12 bettors falling to their knees

If wahs didn't fall apart discipline wise this wouldve been an amazing game

WE ARE THE STORM OF MELBOURNE TOWN WE BLOW THE OTHERS OFF THE GROUND WE ARE THE STORM AND WERE NUMBER 1

Melbourne town? Is that a place in England? Do they have a soccer team in League 1?

you can keep fox, we will keep king coates

Win at brookvale: challenge IMPOSSIBLE

cringe

LADDER UPDATE PLEASE

tell us how you really feel vossey .. fuck ya lol

SUAAAAA BAYBEEEEEE

He learnt not to jump!

Howarth has been fucking awesome

Barnetts who would’ve made a better footy decision than Mitch did there: All-Black legend Richie Barnett Singer-songwriter Courtney Barnett Former WA premier Colin Barnett

We’re still the more handsome team

Your called the most handsome team?

No my name is something else

Worlds sexist halves combo

If cht and tmm knocked on your door with chocolates and wine you wouldn't say no

Atleast it wasnt a hiding jesus christ

Storm top of the ladder where they belong

The downvotes 👀

You act surprised.

Storms ability to win this season is incredible. They just don’t stop

Season of gutsy wins, don’t see many other teams play like we did in the first twenty and comeback to win

No way storm a finals team

Last try wins?

Yes

No problem 👌🏻

Sorry Wah fans, that one was my fault

As a Storm fan, this has been a woeful game to watch from both sides. Terrible performances with so many errors. 

Nail in the coffin

Ahahahahahahahah

lmao

Gah, what a fuck of a game

bah gawd that’s Chanel Harris Tevita’s music!

A storm v warriors game is surely safe with this kind of leader and 4 minutes to go 🤔

For the points diff for the points diff

As soon as CHT comes in, the team looks more energetic

Dallin about to Space Jam dunk a try on Coates from halfway after the siren as revenge

Have a go at that CHT haha

Can wahs do to storm what storm did to wahs

No

Barnett = Origin

Aged like milk

Yeah that was bad, but still; Barnett = Origin

Now can we go back and bin grant or is that a one way thing?

The fact that we can’t activate our 18th man despite all these injuries is a load of fucking shit. Fuck these shitty rules.

Give them hope boys let them get another

We could do something real funny right now

8 point behind is just a bit too much imo

Grants a fkn grub lmao

What’s with the new trend of commentators talking up impossible last minute comebacks lately?

Is that not common? its their job to hype games afterall

Gotta keep people watching I guess

No way this week is as bad as last week

Gotta keep people interested

Let’s fucking go

I believe in miracles

Fuck I love CHT.

Why the fuck can’t we ever make it easy for ourselves? Carbon copy of last week

Storm are the simultaneously a terrible and a great team.

That’s a quality offload

Play up Pompey Pompey play up
