Monday Review Thread - May 18, 2026

A weekly thread to go through the weekend’s game once the dust has settled.

Key Areas:

  • What worked.
  • What didn’t.
  • What decided the game?
  • Who stood up / who didn’t?

Keep it about the Storm. No hot takes from match thread energy, this is the review.

Pictures from Magic Round

Brisbane-based Storm fan here! As requested by u/tora_0515 last week, here are my pictures from tonight's game (clearly not a professional photographer). I added one from earlier in the day to show the view at daytime as well.

Had decent seats on the upper level. Atmosphere was great! So many people with all teams' jerseys were there (even Canberra... RIP). They had cool events like a mascot race at halftime as well.

Goes without saying it was good to see the Storm win (and also my "2nd team" the Cowboys win too). I feel like the scoreline flattered us a bit as we were far from perfect, but our defence was outstanding.

Up the Storm ⚡💜
