Futtocks

Errors from everyone in this match - players and officials.

Coates' long arm stretches out to put the Storm back in front.

Joseph Sua'ali'i set up the try, and his conversion makes it 12 all. Good work all round, there.

Manu in at the corner! Not an easy conversion to equalise, though.

Munster brainfart!

Melbourne holding the line well under several consecutive sets of pressure, but the Roosters didn't look like they had too many ideas.

JWH lucky to get away with that.

Oh, maybe you're right. He's leaving anyway.

Manu didn't want to play against the Roosters, so joining another NRL club was out. There may have been SL clubs who could have made an even half competitive offer for him as a marquee player, but the richer ones already have their quota filled. That leaves the millionaires' toy clubs of French RU or the corporate cash of Japan. No other realistic options in Rugby of either code.

James Fisher-Harris to join the NZ Warriors. A 4-year deal, starting in 2025. This should plug the gap left by Addin Fonua-Blake, who leaves for Parra at the end of this season.

It's a safe earner. Plenty of RU players are boosting their pensions in Japan, especially when their home scene's looking more and more financially insecure every year.
