| Quote Cattastic="Cattastic"i only saw the second half today but i was cringing that king got sucked in 3 times in the first 10 minutes in defence, he'll get crucifed on here next year for that.'"
Matt King was at fault for both the Eels tries, he came charging out of the line for the first Eels try attempting a big hit and Parra threw the long ball which left his winger with an overlap of 2 on one. He did this a few times in the first half but the Storm got away with a couple of the others.
The 2nd Eels try was very similar to the first, again King rushed out leaving his winger totally exposed with an overlap. The tries he scored were great work from Hoffman which left King with a run in for the 1st and the 2nd one looked like he had lost control of the ball from a short range barge over, it didn`t matter anyway as that was right on the siren.
It was a good game though, lots of big hits with plenty of claret on show, Inu was unlucky twice as that ball from Tahu deserved a try by itself. The turning point was when Riddell went off in the 1st half as the momentum swung then, Riddell was dominating the ruck and causing the Storm a lot of problems. |

Have you also counted the many times that King drags his apponents into touch with his charging defense, which no doubt has saved many tries. |

Barrel of laughs you are, always take a negative out of a positive.  |

Great to hear this. I have had a good feeling about the potential of Monaghan at our club since the announcement of his signing.

Not only does he appear to be a handy player. He is one tough hombre too.

This thread got me thinking, could the club actually sell a 'Monaghan Watch'. I'm on the lookout for a new watch, y'know to tell the time and stuff. If the club produced one with say, his face on, I think i'd be interested. I hope others would support this too.

But you'd get one and think 'WOW, this is the best watch I have ever owned'. You would look forward to using it so much, but over the following few months you would gradually become disillusioned and eventually come to realise it is as bad a watch as all the other watches you have ever owned. You'll find yourself looking forward to your next watch hoping that that'll be 'the one'!  |

Or, shortly after putting it on for the first time he'll walk into a door and it's face will suffer a nasty crack. Or it will lose time, proving to be not as quick as it should be... |
