[Desperate Dragon]

Another tough one, this time at home at Kogarah's Jubilee Oval.
Would love to put a dent in the Shark's semi final quest.

Expecting the same team to run out?

CT & Lawson should be close to being back... whether we want to gamble on either I dunno.. Lawson I saw in training photos last week, but also not sure how keen Flanno is to play him in front of Sloan... either seems a risk tbh, esp without a cup game under their belts.. assume Williams and/or Lyric will go back to Flegg.

The rest of the injuries I believe were surgery and season over.. bar NickT who did have surgery but may be back for cup finals yet.

I don’t see CT playing first grade again this year. He’ll just work on recovery & play few cup games.

 

[LawrieTheOriginForward]

Lawson 18th man maybe

 

[denis preston]

Lawson 18th man maybe

Really don’t know what he has done to deserve instant selection. Not overly quick or big. Still a project player learning.

 

[Flinstone]

Lawson 18th man maybe

I'm sure he will play in NSW cup before being in contention for selection

 

[LawrieTheOriginForward]

True He's been out for 5 weeks dont want to risk another injury like what CT does

 

[Wolfgang90]

Maybe a loko or halangahu off the bench, do you risk CT without centre cover? Cook isn't a centre lol. This is where Nick T would've been perfect off the bench, cover 2rf/ctr & allow us to risk CT. Who knows how Sele pulls up too, he's been injury prone. I hope we pick either Loko or Halangahu.

To beat the fish fingers at kogarah and hopefully a full house local derby would make up for not making top 8 this season .

So this is your Grand Final game then?
How times have changed.
It used to be all anyone would hear out of your mob was the number "11" when it came to Grand Finals.
Well here's a little number "11" stat for you,
The Sharks win and it will be "11" in a row against the Dargons.

The Raiders say hello; it was supposed to be 10 wins in a row for the Faiders.
I think the Dragons will beat the sharks.

Your mob played really well last week. I was impressed.
To play that well two weeks in a row? That's the big if isn't it.
But hey, only one of two can win, so there's always a chance.

It is sad that you have to keep a running tally of wins against Dragons...do Sharks get another trophy for that achievement, or just a merit badge. I guess that one trophy in your cabinet is feeling a little lonely, hey.

Anyway, I am impressed that a Sharks fan even knows what number comes after 10, only having to count to one all this time.

Here is another counting exercise for you....if your team do get into the top 4 you will get to play 2 games in the finals series again.

 

[OneEyedDragon]

Maybe the Dragons and Sharks could play for the McGuinness Cup? Cam was captain of the Dragons and is now captain of the Sharks. The trophy would have to look very battered and bruised though!

You really know the Dragons BB! Lack of class players & injuries have been our downfall this season YET we are very competitive most games. Are we due for a win against your mob after 10 in a row ?

If you play to your best, and we play mediocre , then yes you're in with a chance.
If we play to our best, and that's only happened maybe twice this season, then we will win.
Sharks look like they've been in defence mode for the last 4 weeks, went a little more on the attack on Sunday, but the Cows were woeful.
Will the shackles come off a bit? Don't know.
More than likely a grinding, dour match. That could play into your hands after last week.

i cant wait for atkos token minutes this week

I reckon Fitzy plays him 18th man this week or Reggies. Probably named at 14 but shuffled out late
