OFFICIAL Starford To’a #253

With their star halfback coming back from injury the Storm are going to be a different proposition than in their last few weeks, they certainly won't be a pushover.

Our boys will have to contain both him & Grant around the ruck, put them.on their backs to slow the play the ball "legally" not giving away 6 agains lying all over them.
 
Agree with your concerns about Hughes coming back after missing last week, but aside from that game I think he has played in all of their losing games this season.

He has generally been fairly ineffective, but with the Craig Bellamy thing, them being at home, Wests Tigers being decimated all over the park and the history of Storm putting a score on us does not exactly fill you full of confidence.

Hoping for a big bounce back by our boys but as I have already said, not exactly brimming full of confidence.

that is cup though... Toa probably comes out and plays well in cup this week.
All I am saying is Herbert is not very good defensively either. Attack wise Herbert is pretty ok, perhaps better in attack than Toa

At least Herbert puts his damn body in front of the runner… Toa deadset played the lamest, most catty game of NRL I have ever seen from a centre since one of toas other games last season… he is lazy and disinterested

Herbert goes for intercepts frequently
Not saying toa is the answer but dont believe Herbert is the long term answer st centre this year either
Hoping makasini is fit and he goes to centre or tigers move turuva to centre and makasini to wing

Mak and tiny both left centres, one needs to go to the right sooner or later.

Herbert plays like Nofa, though he doesn't get caught out of position as much.

T’oa is much worse, I’m sure you predicted tigers to win also so on that basis you are predicting Herbert to play well

is it ?
Herbert's defence will be a big worry predicting a few storm tries down that lane for sure.
when we win it will not be due to Herbert's defence
predicting he won't play that well and makasini back into the frame against manly with turuva to centre big Mak to wing

Im not sure how you defend T’oa after last week, the coach certainly isn’t and he was rightly dropped

Must be his concentration, because he showed some decent technique.

He's still 10x the tackler of Starford

in your opinion
startford not tackling well at present as he is likely injured.
As I have said glad starford is dropped just dont like Herbert as the option.
Hopefully makasini comes back to wing and turuva can play centre
