    Who's up for Grabs??????

    Luke Priddis is off contract. Frank Pritchard as well. Also Tevita Latu I think.

    Greg Bird

    There's a nice piece on the much maligned Greg Bird in the Tele today. He's using his time out of the game to work with the Starlight Foundation, organising for sick kiddies to attend games and hospital visits etc. Well done to the young man.

    3 2 1 against the Storm

    2.5 Brett Kimmorley because he did little wrong. Yes no good with the goalkicking but I think this is the first game he has been recorded as no missed tackles. He defended very well and plugged many gaps as he did for Country. General kicking better too 2.5 David Peachey because he did what...

    A stat that matters...

    Perhaps finally someone has shown the players what a dominant tackle really is. I have another telling one. Not a major revelation or anything but I thought it relevant In rnds 1 -4 we conceded 45 penalties Round 5 vs the Cowboys was the fix it game - only 5 in that one In rnds 6 - 9...

    OK.. I will be the one to say it..

    yes I agree with that but also think he is fullfilling another purpose just being there - fullstop. I've been noticing he is doing a lot of talking on the field. This can only be good as he passes on experience

    Where was Peachey?

    Sorry for writing again I didn't want to put too much in one posting McSharkie, you said "who will the fickle fans want dropped next week?" No one I suspect but that'd be wrong too in my opinion but I wouldn't see it as dropping anyone but picking the players for the job specifically for...

    Where was Peachey?

    It's a 2 edged sword I reckon There seems to be no grey areas with Peachey. He's either on or he's not and he's certainly been off more than he has been on this year, but off to the point of humiliating him by dropping him? Probably not. Have a look at how the ACB sticks by the cricketers...

    Sharks V Roosters!!!

    From what I've read so far you don't get too much wrong blacktip-reefy but you are wrong on the above. Crocker is not on report for "clipping". Hodgson caught a high ball and Crocker took him out while he was about 3 feet up in the air. It was every bit as bad as clipping the kickers legs though...

    OK.. I will be the one to say it..

    I personally don't think Vagana has looked right all year. He never had a good tackling technique at the best of times but I haven't seen him use a shoulder in a tackle yet. An incident that comes to mind was in the Anzac test when Tahu was off down the sideline and Vag came over to attempt an...

    Stevo and Noddy

    I'm surprised Stevo didn't rate a mention actually. I thought that with O'meley the 2 were the best props on the park. Seemed to me that Stevo put his hand up for all the real dirty work. On Kimmorleys goalkicking - seems like his technique and balance are looking greatly improved, who is...

    Stevo and Noddy

    Well Phil Gould isn't a selector and he even said last night that with Scott Hill in that kind of form the logical halfback from the selectors point of view would be Noddy. Hill was awesome last night and I now wish we'd been more accomodating to his neds when negotiating with him. we sure...

    Where was Peachey?

    I don't suppose most people like him but we have an established replacement in Matt Seers. He was always a very incisive runner from broken play and dummy half. Seers has shown he can do it. Don't worry too much about his ordinary play in Premier League because that whole side has been...

    Player Purchasing.

    I don't think we should lose sight of the fact that Canberra let us have quick PTBs. They were way off their game when we played them. As for recruitment. I'm thinking that the latest recruitment was done with a particular style of play in mind. Makes it hard on a new coach when he may not...

    JRL in the Shire

    Sharkie, may I ask, how old are your boys? Do either of them show above average ability. Here's a tip if they do - watch the balance of power at the District club and go to the junior side that has the connections.

    KICKING!!!

    As I watched the Roosters v Dragons game a couple of weeks ago the way the roosters chased off kickoffs was noticeable. They are well behind their own 10 metre line when the kicker lines it up. They are at a million mph as the ball gets hit. They do get a bit close to offside but probably 99% of...
