Game 746 – S29E05 Review Penrith Panthers 50–10 Melbourne Storm

Did i purposefully post this at 10:50am to amuse myself? Yes, yes I did. If you can’t amuse yourself, then what’s the point.

I mean here’s too many words about Friday night.

Although, please do watch the highlight from the SG Ball win yesterday afternoon.

Kids, don’t stay up late at night watching a replay of your team get thumped. It will only result in weird blog posts (to be published at 10:50am)

Is someone paying attention to my bullshit? The Broncos numbers are now maroon with gold outlines with this kit. Huh.

What’s more wobbly right now…

If we’re defining dangerous contact “hip drops” now as merely momentarily landing on the legs of players being tackled, then referees are going to have to called “held” much, much earlier.

Game 746 – 10–50
Melbourne finally concede 50. Book your September holidays. Beaten thoroughly on the edges on a bad Friday. Who could’ve predicted that? Melbourne’s third loss in a row and it doesn’t look like ending. The Storm needs a circuit breaker and fast.

Finally. We’re cooked.
Book your September holidays.

One to go

Passes before the line, caught after the line.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ whatever.

Clarke and King have kept trying at least.

Whoop-de-do

Two more tries will finally do it.

Victorian or not, STB

This is cool though

Imagine defending. Bellyache shouldn’t even bother going down to them.

McLean might pass backwards one day. Today is not that day.

I guess Melbourne’s challenge against Martin’s dropped ball will never be heard.

Whatever happened to the fuckwit’s chips inside the balls?

The last pass 🙄

The Prefects getting ruck infringements against them. Is this a freaky Friday or something?

Chris Butler spins the wheel…

Well at least we scored.

The most obvious flop that ever flopped.

Set restart for daring to tackle Nathan to bring up fifth tackle.

Fuck you Klein.

At least two set restarts missed on that possession. Sigh.

Oh Munster. That was very bad.
Play to the fucking whistle.

#Kleined giveth (a penalty)
Klein takes away

Will always be amused that four premierships later, this team still can’t attract a crowd.

Wearing white shorts and socks with this jersey is an error. Just wear purple shorts and hooped socks please.

Is this a case of “look like a QRL team, play like a QRL team”?
