Reading between the lines in Dessie’s recent interviews where he calls Kieran ‘very versatile’, could suggest he’s thinking of starting with him at 14, sounds good to me.

Tuipulotu the other new recruit youngster looks a better acquisition than Saab. Far stronger, grittier and more willing to take the hard carries with the benefit of playing center when Suli goes down.
That said, Saab plays left and Tuipulotu plays right, Walker (time to punt him Des) and Suli to start, Schu and Cherry.
Paseka with a bit more aggression could be the best prop in the club by seasons end, great skills for such a big human.

What was the charge again, swearing at the police ?
Not great but nothing to go nuts over.
Seems more is being made of this than Tom Starling, 5 counts of assaulting a
police officer and resisting arrest.
Now there’s a mess.

5 months ago it was Pangai, 4 weeks ago it was Hopoate, 3 weeks ago it was Fifita, this week it’s Haas. Lodge locked and loaded.
Donaghy’s asking price just doubled.

True, we probably could have done without the ‘oh,no’s’ and ‘Panther fans hold your breath’ as we waited verdicts on the Olam and Smith tries..but personally find that tragically humorous, especially when it goes against him..as again later in ‘they (bunker) don’t know the rules’ and a Joey echo of same elsewhere in the game.
That was laugh out loud stuff.

Melbourne defended very well and were too good on the day.
In defence of Gus :
It was 2 tries to nil and a couple of penalty goals, a 12 point turnaround intercept and a penalty try, very gettable, until the 40th min.
At 1/2 time on the stat sheet the Panthers had spent 53% inside Storm territory and had attacked 50% more of the time inside their opponents red zone 20.
Post contacts were 20% greater and offloads nearly double…remove Suni’s intercept and run meters were identical. There was no significant difference in missed tackles.
Melbourne had 1 clean line break to 0..Olam’s ‘try’.

Process that, these aren’t the stats of a team getting dominated in battle.

Unfortunately the significance of the Panther errors far out weighed those of the Storm , which were numerically similar, and lead to defeat.

The Storm were deserved winners but as GOAT Smith said after the game ‘another 2 minutes and I don’t know .’

Ol ‘ Sauce finished top 5 on the NRL stats leader board in 4 key categories : line breaks, post contacts, all runs and run metres..works peerlessly harder carting it off his own line……then comes the 80% chance of him losing it getting up to play it.

Ivan is going for a new model Ferrari rather than the muscle car, tough choice but it’s time for Charlie.

I said it was ‘ a game of centimetres’ which you’ve twisted into ”should be premiers’.. guess they’re synonymous in some part of the universe.

Can you give me a reference for a direct quote from Annesley on that ‘acknowledgement’..
