A tough one to swallow as an undermanned Storm side falls 14–8 to the Roosters—but there was plenty in that performance to be proud of. 💜⚡️On the agenda:💼 Sponsor shout-outsFreedom Finance | Premium Sports Tours | Five Eights🏥 Heartbreak for Will Warbrick. A confirmed Achilles rupture ends his season and devastatingly, his Melbourne Storm career. We reflect on what Will has given this club and wish him well for the long road ahead.💜 Storm fans, be proud Against an almost full-strength Roosters side, without several of our biggest stars, then losing Brick and carrying more niggles we still fought until the final siren. That effort was unreal.🔍 Game analysis:-The abysmal refereeing—and yes, there were poor decisions both ways.-Our first tackle inside the Roosters’ 20 didn’t come until just 26 minutes remained. How did we lose the territory battle so badly?-91% tackle efficiency despite reportedly missing 15 tackles in the opening 20 minutes.-Eleven errors after we stressed the importance of controlling the football.-and Storm defended both edges superbly, shutting down Mark Nawaqanitawase’s threat.It was a gutsy performance that showed how far this team has come—but did crucial second-half moments from Wishart, Meaney and MacDonald ultimately cost us an unlikely victory?🔥 Plus, our 3–2–1 player votes!Plenty to unpack. Let us know your thoughts below! 👇💜⚡️
