Finals week 3 - The beating of the Strom

[bad boy bubby]

Play hard, play strong
They're a putrid purple scum
And as the sun goes down
Just beat the f**king Strom

f**k them

 

[2012....Sharks Year]

Rinse and repeat of last 3 weeks. We’re hard match fit….they’re vulnerable for once. Get it done.

 

[DJDL]

The Storm are gettable.
I’ve felt that since the end of the season.

Pappy’ll be back, but he looks well down on what he’s capable of.
And I can’t see Jahrome Hughes playing.

Huge chance.

I hope he does play because I reckon either Tieg or Billy will kill him

 

[Since 73]

No Nelson.
When theyre finding it tough in the middle bellyache sends him in to make metres. So that wont happen this time.

If he rushes Hughes back he has a broken hand, so will need a needle but bellyache will try and get through to the GF and save him for that.

Paps has had a shit year. Nowhere near the threat he was.

Musters over rated. More worried about Wishart.

Their wingers and Harry are the big concerns.

But we win.

Whilst Billy B is getting the accolades he thoroughly deserves the extra impact the Briton brings off the bench cannot go understated.
His speed and swerve on a tired defence is causing havoc.

 

[BWNB]

This year feels different to last year. Yes we're in the same position however i feel we are better placed

 

[bluefox68]

The Roosters wingers were supposed to kill us, and it would have surprised no-one if they had’ve done so.

Storm wingers are on a par with the Roosters ones…

We have to defend the cross-field kick. I reckon Ronnie, KL & Teig are working as a unit. Awesome!
Katoa needs the backup from Ramien. So far, it’s been pretty good… We need to keep training hard to defuse this threat.

 

[Special K]

Frenzy do your thing

 

[Weaponhead]

Must start well. High intensity, aggression with limited errors. Storm look to blow teams away in the first 20 mins of finals.

If the Sharks have 8 errors in the first half like last night, the game is over by half time. If the Sharks have 2 errors in the first half, like the second half last night they are in with a massive shot.

 

[Stake Removed]

Munster will con Klein into getting a couple of penalties he does this each game

 

[glenmoresharkie]

We’re in amongst the big boys. Storm and Brisbane and the ever present Penrith.

We can absolutely win this comp. No doubt about it. Next week we go again.

AFB has added forward leadership and confidence.

Brailey is in career best form.

Our bench allows no drop off compared to other teams.

We now also believe in a winning formula for the finals.

I thought we looked a little nervous at the start of the Raiders game.

Nerves create errors.

We must come out to play against the Storm.

How the f**k Ashley Klown keeps getting the top job is bewildering to everyone bar the person picking him every week.

 

[Stake Removed]

Apparently they are getting rid of 6 full time refs end of the season, with the NRL god knows who

Klein's actually reffing every game from next season. The schedule will be done around how quick he can get from ground to ground.

How the f**k Ashley Klown keeps getting the top job is bewildering to everyone bar the person picking him every week.

As someone who umpires footy at a local level, it seems rife throughout all levels of sport in Australia, once you get the top gig it’s hard to lose it. So many umpires rack up top grand final after top grand final and it’s impossible to unseat them.

Of course what’s most remarkable with Klein is he f**ks hp big moments time and time again, yet still gets the gig. It’s hard to not buy into conspiracy theories when it always goes the same way and he’s always rewarded.
