OMG #1 - Just checked the Official Storm Website and discovered that five of the Storm boys have been named in the Queensland Preliminary Origin Squad. Those selected are Dallas Johnson, Cameron Smith, Billy Slater, Michael Crocker & Greg Inglis. Well done, kids.
OMG #2 - Ex-Storm player Steve Bell, who now plays for Manly Sea Eagles, has also been named in the Preliminary Squad for the Maroons. Shiny. Way to go Belly! Since I discovered that Storm play Manly the week before the third State of Origin I've had a niggling feeling that we may not get to see Steve playif when we travel to Sydney. (Those selected for Origin duty don't play Club footy the week before.) Could be I gonna be right ;) No drama though -- State of Origin 3 is to be played in Melbourne. Yah us!
This post can only be finished off one way:
GO MAROONS!!!

I second that. Go the Maroons! Go Belly! What a perfect colour :) Nearly the colour of my hair at the moment.
BTW Katy, They have announced that Ben Kennedy is captain for Manly.
Storm have six captains :(
I read about Ben Kennedy. He was pretty much the favourite, I think. He deserves it.
Not too sure about the Six Storm captains either. One thing is for sure -- Mick Crocker must be having a great pre-season to be selected by the team.
Hope they don't all try to pull rank on game day ;)
Fingers Crossed that Belly doesn't make the final state of origin team picked only because I have to change to the Maroons if he does.
But for Belly's sake I have fingers croosed that he and all the Storm Boys make it.
Hey Em, wishing you never made that deal to support Queensland if Belly makes it? :)
