3 Gal. Went forward like he always does and led the way.
2 Lewy. Still playing like a 20 year old. Scored a good try and was a constant threat out wide.
1 Boogs. Strong when he came on and broke tackles and made metres. Amazing flick pass.

Special mentions.

Definitely Heighno, thought he ran well and took it to the Storm.
Brailey. I must admit I miss what he does in defence but I like his service and he's running a bit more now.
That chase he did in the first half was brilliant, I forget who he ran down but they were no slouch. He then came up with the ball a few tackles later.

Really? I thought Brailey had an absolute shocker.

His poor defence was the cause of all three of Melbournes tries and he was the one whom made the rookie* mistake of being obviously offside and getting involved in the play where we tackled Slater in goal. That penalty halted all the moment be built.


*I am very well aware that Brailey is a rookie so using the term 'rookie mistake' is redundant. However, though he is a rookie in first grade, he isn't a rookie dummy half. He should have known that the refs eyes were going to be glued on him the second that grubbed was crossed back towards the ruck.

Happy for you to voice your option mate but like Gards said I don't think he could be faulted for all three of their tries. He tries his guts out every game and yes, he is still learning. He may not be a rookie dummy half but it's a huge step from 20s to NRL, just because he's killed it in that grade doesn't mean he'll transfer that form to first grade.

He is doing remarkably well for a rookie. He may have been offside in that kick but it was a change in direction and it all happened quite quickly, it was his natural instinct to chase.

On one of the tries it was a 50/50 call. He may have even pulled off a miraculous try saver but Melbourne got the benefit of the doubt.

Holmes needs to do way more in attack, far too complacent at times too. Great tackle on Ado Carr though!

Looking forward to having Segy off the bench hopefully for the Tigers game.
