      What an amazing development the storm have though, lose a great goal kicker and hooker in cam smith, they then have Brandon smith and Harry grant to take his role, they lose nicho as their backup goal kicker, and they make pappy one of the best goal kickers, and probably best fullback on form at the moment in the comp, they moved hughes around the backline, then finally make him a top 3 halfback.

      the storm keep moving forward after constantly losing superstars every year, and making superstars out of nobody.

      Good reason why every club should still see them as the benchmark.

          Yeah I hate them as they cheated the cap big time and aren't from a footy city (so feel a bit manufactured). Also they get amazingly good treatment from the refs.

          However, I've gotta pay their development. I can sledge them all I like... a heap of their (previously unheralded - often rejected) players have made a massive impact outside the Storm's highly protected systems.

          Bellamy's a great development coach IMO. On paper his current team woulda looked like a bunch of nobodies if you looked at them even 2-3 years ago IMO.

            And some people don’t rate Bellamy.

              All over, switching that one off.

              Both teams are well above us right now though. With all the talent we've got on paper, I really do hope we can get to that sorta level pretty quickly. Otherwise, it's gonna be another year of watching that stupid mullet put us to the sword.

              Teddy's captain of NSW and selected ahead of Trbo + Pap. Fark I wanna start seeing some more convincing signs that he deserves to be there.

                He was shyte as an Origin coach (different job) and I think his career has benefited from salary cap cheating (i.e. I dunno if he'd have had so much access to future immortals if they weren't systematically able to buy them).

                But... I doubt any player would tell him to get farked if he offered them 10 minutes worth of feedback on their game. Further, there's very few Drizz players (even the ones I pretend are shyte when I'm angry about losing to them) who I wouldn't secretly jizzing about having in our roster.

                I mean Cronk and Brandon are two examples. Before I saw Cronk play I was always like 'oh he's just lucky to play for the Drizz and QLD... both are cheats who get generous treatment from the refs'. Reality? As soon as it's real that Pearce has been told to fark off and Cronk's coming to Sydney, I jumped straight on the bandwagon. Same with Brandon and it pains me to say it but fark... if Cam Smith announced he was gonna go for 1 more round, I'd take him (even today with a season on the sidelines drinking beer).

                      My thoughts precisely.

                        That qld side was the best origin side in history with some future immortals, I don't think it's a true indication of Bellamy's coaching that he couldn't get nsw to beat them in that arena.
                        Bellamy has continually changed the game with new innovations and tactics ( some of them unsavoury) but you can't deny his ability to motivate and get the best out of his players.
                        He has transformed rejects from other clubs into very good footballers and many players who leave the storm never look as good again.

                            What about that 1st half performance from Talakai. You rarely see 1 player dominate like that in a 13 man sport. That was Latrell like when he carved it up for the Chooks.
                            You think Momorovski was given a bath by Staggs what about Cherry Evans, Harper & Saab.

                              "With a barge pole...sideways" was it?

                                And that’s how we should use our centres. Set up at a post, quick play the ball and let our halves play early and get the ball to the centres early, in plenty of space.

                                I’d like to see Suaalii used this way at centre. Not many could stop him. Plus I reckon he could defend the same play too
