“Whose idea was it to have the work experience kid do this when Simon Hill could just do it on his own lol.”

1 – NRL – Storm coach Craig Bellamy explodes during NRL Grand Final
Victorious Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy is known to lose it every now and then and Bellyache didn’t hold back as the Panthers went oh so close to running down the Storm in a dramatic second half of Sunday night’s NRL Grand Final.
Frustrated by refereeing decisions and Penrith’s second half surge, the volatile Storm coach at one stage walked up to the second tier of his coaches box and took out his frustration on a chair, unleashing a ferocious kick which sent the chair hurtling to the far end of the coaches box at breakneck speed.
If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs… Oh hang on, Bellyache going nuts. How good! How much does it mean to him. #storm #thesupercoach pic.twitter.com/zuwLSQB9Nk

But it all ended well for Bellyache and Cameron Smith with the Storm holding out the fast-finishing Panthers for a 26-20 victory.
The booted chair however, which copped a similar beating to Penrith's 22-0 first half beatdown, didn’t fare so well!
