Hey Folks, Footage of the pre-season game between the Warriors and the Storm. The evening started with the Junior Warriors beating Waikato 34-6. Local boy Junior Afualo was the starting prop (#10) for the Junior Warriors. He played well with the ball in hand and made some good hitups and tackles thoughout the game. Was unlucky not to score, however some good defence from the locals made sure he didnt get over the line. Towards the end of the Juniors/Waikato game, the heavens opened and it started to rain down hard!! Myself and the friends/family were in the old WEL stand, but with the wind pushing the rain sideways, we got totally soaked! Was hard trying to get the camcorder out in the rain and it wasn't until the last 8 minutes that i managed to get something on video. Got the last try scored by Big Manu which was in the last minute making the final score 24-12 to the Warriors. Ex Warrior Wairangi Koopu was one of the Storm's best players on the night. In the first half, he made a great run fending off several of the Warriors which got the crowd cheering. Great to see Stacey Jones back in action. He played well and things look good for the Warriors in 2009. A minute's silence was observed in rememberance of Warrior Sonny Fai and also the victims of the Victorian bush fires.
Note: Audio only on one channel.. not sure why that happened :(
FINALLY... WE BEAT THE WARRIORS ..and Melbourne Storm advances to the Semis.. !
Hopefully ..Warriors will get it together Next Season .. ?????

The Storm will always be there at the finals stage and The Warriors should be there as well.
Good win to The Warriors tonight over the Eels :-)

Mos def, we came up against an unbeatable Manly team in the semi and we scored more than the Storm got in the final so its gotta be promising. 2009 season should be a great one to look forward to.
