All plastic chairs were intact iirc. Had Stick not kicked the shit out of them in the second half, he would have offered one to tired old Sia. Regardless, Capewell should be old enough to know the virtue of patience.

I caught a bit of Ricky on the sideline at the end.
He doesn’t know how funny he is.

Sharks didn’t deserve to win but it would’ve been comedy gold to see Ricky if they had.

I think Sticky's funny, whatever he does. His ironic "ruin first grade halfbacks" routine never gets old, no matter how many times you hear it.

I think we can both agree that the scoreline reflects the scoring events of the game, regardless of how they came to fruition. We should all be heaping praise on the scorekeepers for nailing their job every week.

I was at soccer training ( too old to play footy )
We have beers and watch the game in the clubhouse afterwards.
About 50 blokes who follow all different teams hoping the sharks scored at the end.
Everyone wanted a Ricky meltdown.

Dugan was getting heckled from the crowd hard (I was at the game) but I'll say this, he handled it very well - Had a smile on his face, and even had some light hearted banter with some of the crowd.

Bad Sports FC. I was at home watching a narrow win for Rugby League.

He did the right thing when some neanderthal bone head cheap shots your halfback on the ground

So when your team mate gets hit with a legal tackle the right thing to do is run over 15 meters and take out a marker? It should have honestly been considered a professional foul.

No matter how hard Skeepe tries to say otherwise it wasn’t a shoulder charge and when Fifita drops on him with the swinging arm it doesn’t make contract with the head. It was all legal.

The right thing to do is tell your forwards to fire up and put Fifita on his arse the next hit up he takes, not run over and play pretend tough with a prop because you know he can’t smack you.

This is Dugan taking a penalty tap after Croker getting penalised for holding down. Circled is Croker, he went back 5 m before tackling Dugan, stopping a try.

He went unpenalised. He should have been sent for 10.

The tap has already been taken. All that still image proves is that Croker was in that position after Dugan tapped the ball, which he is quite entitled to do.

Croker never retires the 10. He's 5m away from the tap when it is taken, steps back 2m at most before getting involved and is instrumental in stopping Dugan from scoring after Whitehead fell out of the tackle.

Milkshark is right. Croker should have been put in the bin.

Yep, Croker just stands there looking at the ref with a stupid look on his face while the rest of the team get back to the goal line.
Pretty incredible that it was missed right in front of the refs, I was screaming at the tv

Croker was the one that tackled Dugan stopping him from scoring, unbelievable

If the teams were reversed skreepe would still be bringing up that tackle ten years from now.
