Live Game Discussion
Does the bunker/anyone ever check to see if the try scorer is onside chasing a kick these days? I remember when big Kens foot was deemed infront of the kicker .. never seem to check these days.
 
Cleary will definitely bring Sorensen back in when available but it's pretty funny how you can use stats to push a case.

Everyone would no doubt be singing the praises of Liam Martin (just for the record he is a beast) but are pretty quick to dismiss Luke Garner.

Here are some of the game stats from NRL.com from last night's game.

Garner had the better game. He cops shit here unfairly.
 
If this game keeps going Storms way I think we are set for one of the most unexciting final series I can remember. The way last night went, and the other teams we haven't seen yet I don't think have any chance. Hopefully I'm wrong and something interesting happens!
The good sides who have excelled all year are winning. That’s great to see.
