With all the stupid plays, players sin binned and terrible passing they somehow won. This should given them enormous confident. Still a lot of things to fix. Hodgson needs to be more measures in his plays
It's a simple game; tackle, back-up, pass, hold the ball! What did I say? "Hold the bloody ball!!"

Exceptional. Famous victory.

Bateman, Papa, Hodgo, CNK brilliant (hodgo was bad as well, but he won us the game)

Huge win. We now have the belief we can beat the top sides.

That was ridiculous. I can't believe what I just witnessed. Was this a dream? Am I going to wake up and be disappointed soon?

Yep. Critical of Hodgo tonight but he made the big plays when it really mattered. Ditto Papalii, ditto Bateman.

It was, just - but who cares now!

That second half was a shut out and kudos to the refs for policing the ruck.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Still shaking with excitement. What a win.

I gave up at half time. Never again.

Other than Tapine, same team next week (barring injuries). They deserve it.

Apart from beating Melbourne in Melbourne and coming back from 18 down you have to consider that Tarps had a stinker, Cotric was bog average, Hodgo had a pile of rocks amongst his diamonds, BJ is still feeling his way back into things - we have another gear in us!

I can admit to hyperbole in the first half, but regardless that first 20 was moronic.

The rest of the game could not be prouder!

We were horrible for the first 40, that’s some character that we didn’t expect to see. Great win for the club.

Exactly. That first half was terrible. Luckily we don’t need to focus on that now though. If we play with the heart of that second half for the rest of the year....I can’t even say it without getting goosebumps.

First time this year:
* we have won a game when losing at half time
* the Storm have lost a game when winning at half time

First time in HISTORY - The Storm have lost a game when they were up by 18 points.

Don't even know how we managed to pull that out when we looked so flat at times but we found a way!

So pumped... I'm going to go calm down somewhere!

The first half was moronic.
We dug ourselves out of a hole we should never have been in the first place.
Feels realer than real this year.
Better team than the 2016 version.
I hope we learn from that start...learn to be smart from kick off!
Well done to the boys and to Stick!

Whatever Sticky said to the boys at half time should be bottled, Stick and the boys i think were the only people in the world who believed they could still win at 18-4 down half time, when Croker holds up the cup grand final evening, remember this game!
