I think he's okay but I don't care for the warriors. Maybe I'd like him more if he played somewhere else.

Oh by the way are there rules for the Warriors and how many Australians can play for them?

Yes there's a 33% maximum quota, and we're only allowed to take experienced players who are physically past their best, talented youngsters looking for opportunity or the ploddiest outcasts of other NRL Clubs.

Yeah ok he's a hack because he can't carry a team of half arsing plodders coached by a potato every single week.

If ever I have seen a post hit the nail on the head, this one is it.

But yeah, it's always the halfback's fault eh. Especially the last two weeks. How dare he expose our 'huge' forwards to get absolutely smashed to pieces like they did.

What is going on with the former NZ thriller? Hooked against the Baby Broncos in crunch time. Doesn't say much for the state of his career. I mean I guess when even Kearney is fed up with you....

Wasn't 100% fit, plus the Sharks are in a bit of a funk right now.

He probably needs some time in reserve grade.

Hasn't been the same since his first leg injury.

Half of it is mental too. He's just too scared to run and risk it happening again.

Johnson is a problem, but if the Sharks think that he is their only issue they have another thing coming.

The gritty attitude that Flanno instilled in the team is wearing off. John Morris seems like a nice bloke, and seems to know his shit. But he doesn’t have any merkin about him. And I think it’s starting to show.

Totally agree. I wasn’t a huge flanno fan, but the team always put in. Even in the grind it out shit game plans

You're saying he's another Matt Elliot type

Seems the question of if it was the warriors bringing him down, or him not being able to lift the warriors is being answered.

Watching todays game, it's like SJ turns off & goes walkabout in his head.
A competent goal kicker would've helped.
Dugan had another great game slowing the play the ball, showing everyone how much each tackle really hurt but being the hard man that he is in his own mind, he eventually picked himself up & battled on.

So yes, the Sharks have got some worries. There biggest problem though is Moylan. Had he not played today they would've beat Brisbane's B team.

I think you'll find that was Brisbanes A team. Way better then the steaming pile that's been playing every other week.
