I was just visiting the Storm unofficial forum and came across a post by Danger D. This poster has done some great work pulling together the game experience of each team so I thought I'd share it here.
Again, all due credit goes to Danger D.
Its clear that the Storm have more experience than our boys, however i feel we have the big game players to match them, players like Teddy, Keary, Friend, Cooper, Cords, Aubo, JWH. Also some of our less experienced players are showing they have what it takes, like Manu, Latrell, Rads.
Something I found funny about their forum is the discussion around refs. Its a very different attitude to ours!!
