We had four sets back to back on their line.

We needed Bird to come in and create something, instead he stayed out on the right edge and got shut down time and time again.
I find it strange you critise bird but not our halfback who plays in the middle of the field

Holmes needs to be full back.

I would also say that if Nu brown is back I would place him on the bench in Barbas place or Bird to bench and Nu to 5/8

-28, we got lucky with some close wins this season but we are not a top 8 team. Taking the piss trying to be top 4 with almost no one that can kick.

geez mate you're clutching at straws. We had way to much sideways movement and too many one up hit ups. We are very bad tonight. The refs have nothing to do with it.

Your an idiot if you think we weren't reff'ed out of this contest.

Melbourne have laid on us from the opening whistle to the end with zero penalty's for it. Every tackle they have been able to reset their defensive line. Every single tackle. This was a game we had no chance of winning thanks to the officiating.

Even without the bad reffing. Melbourne were on a different level to us tonight.

It's easy to be on a different level when one teams allowed to lay in tackles.

The rule in a three man tackle is one peels off, then the other two simultaneously. Melbourne didn't do this.

They were peeling off one at a time and the referees didn't penalise them, then when we copied them, they blew the whistle.

it's a melbourne love in on fox sports, brandy carrying on like the storm planned that last try all along fmd. I normally dont mind the fox guys but tonight they seemed on the storm bandwagon from the get go.

so frustrating watching how storm slow the ruck down with hands over players and the refs allow it to happen
