Storm V Roosters at Lang Park about to kick off. Both teams on the field... Storm kick off, we are underway! Quite a lot of people there, given the late venue switch and the fact this Storm home game is being played in Brisbane.

[gerg]

Brandon Smith doing a head twist on Butcher there.

[yeh raiders]

Surely you defend with Brandon Smith on the edge instead of Cameron ...

[The Greenhouse]

12th min TRY ROOSTERS to Kyle Flanagan, and he converts his own try from in front of the posts. The try comes from a dropped ball from the Storm in their own half.

Roosters 6-0

[GreenMachine]

Watching this game ... take a look at the shots both teams throw at each other.
They rarely waste rucks setting up for plays.
Constantly attacking.

Love to see it.

Jesus that horrendous from Flanaghan...

[The Greenhouse]

14th min TRY STORM to Josh Addo-Carr, after a Flanagan pass goes astray. He runs almost 50 metres to score near the posts. Cameron Smith converts.

It’s great huh.
They live and die by it, but they don’t die wondering.
They are confident enough to keep the defensive line constantly threatened.
I wish we did more of this.

[yeh raiders]

Yep same, we’ve got the talent and a lot of confidence footballers.

[yeh raiders]

I just don’t like Angus Crichton. I think it’s the combination of private school x Rugby Union ego.

[yeh raiders]

Jesus Christ.... flimsy Collins

[The Greenhouse]

38th min TRY ROOSTERS to Josh Morris in the corner. Confirmed by the bunker. Kick to the corner and Tupou regathers and passes to Morris for the four pointer. Kyle Flanagan converts from the sideline.

Roosters 12-6

HALF TIME

[The Greenhouse]

Roosters kick off to start the second half.

[The Greenhouse]

42nd min TRY STORM to Jahrome Hughes under the posts. A Boyd Cordner offload is intercepted by Eisenhuth and Hughes takes the pass and runs 40 metres. Cameron Smith converts.

Roosters 12
Storm 12

[yeh raiders]

Melbourne have to be smarter than this. They’re attacking the try line and have Brandon Smith at hooker, while Cameron Smith is catching a cold out in the backline. Amateurish

[The Greenhouse]

55th min TRY ROOSTERS to Brett Morris in the corner. This is a top shelf game. What a kick from Kyle Flanagan from the sideline! GOAL!

Roosters 18-12

[GreenMachine]

Roosters are a class above.
Just look at their sets.
They ask questions all the time.
The forwards support each other and look for the hooker and Teddy all the time.

[yeh raiders]

Sit back and enjoy the Morris twins. Christ almighty

[The Greenhouse]

70th min TRY ROOSTERS to Josh Morris in the corner. That's a double and that's the match. Kyle Flanagan misses the conversion from the sideline.

Roosters 22-12

[BadnMean]

They have the speed to go end to end, get you going backwards and the speed to finish it off.

[The Greenhouse]

72nd min TRY STORM to Jahrome Hughes under the posts. They're going to the bunker to check obstruction, doesn't look like a problem TRY. So maybe that's not the match! Converted Cameron Smith.

Sydney Roosters 22
Melbourne Storm 18

Yep.
It highlights what a lack of speed we have.

[The Greenhouse]

74th min THAT'S INCREDIBLE! TRY STORM out wide to Paul Momorovski. Tupou knocks on the bomb, Hughes regathers, passes to the centre and it is all good! Cameron Smith converts! Hits the post and goes over!

Melbourne Storm 24
Sydney Roosters 22

[GreenMachine]

Rooting for the storm here.
I’d prefer they face us after a win..

[The Greenhouse]

78th min Penalty to the Rooster for offside... and Kyle Flanagan is attempting to force the game into golden point. Goal attempt from the sideline, 30 metres out... and he gets it!

PENALTY GOAL ROOSTERS to Kyle Flanagan.

Going to golden point by the looks.

Lol. Vunivalu has some Joey tendencies.

[The Greenhouse]

80th min FIELD GOAL ROOSTERS to Luke Keary.

**** I love Rugby League

[The Greenhouse]

80th min FIELD GOAL STORM to Ryan Papenhuyzen. INCREDIBLE!

We go to golden point!

[GreenMachine]

What a game!

[BadnMean]

Yep.
It highlights what a lack of speed we have.

I wonder if Simo and Oldy in will change that up noticeably.

[BJ]

Sensational game. Reminds me of some Raiders v Broncos and v Manly back in the early 90s.

[gangrenous]

Anyone not pumped for Golden Point here? That’s why it’s Golden Point!
