What a crap game.

Honestly what is with the Sharks attack? It's getting worse each year.

Heck, it was actually alright when Stuart Raper was coach!

Take 1,2, 6,7 and 8 out of any side and see how they go...

Saints attack was much much better.... we bombed three dead set tries and created a hell of a lot more chances against a team with one of the best defenses in the comp

No Seymour, Barrett getting hurt, new fullback, new hooker and new lock?

It was always going to take time(Seymour didn't get any pre season) and now that has been delayed by injuries and Buster getting on the sauce.
You think im talking just about today mate?

I'm talking ever since Ricky Stuart took over.

2007 you averaged 18.5 points per game - 6th worst attacking team.

2008 18.8 ppg - 2nd lowest average, only worse was the Dogs who got the spoon and averaged 18 ppg.

2009 so far 12 ppg - LOWEST avg after 3 rounds.

So not just this game.

Rubbish game tbh, the ten metres was kept very poorly and there seems to be a distinct lack of attacking prowess from both sides.

Add to that I'm f**king sunburnt... but f**k it's good to go to the footy @ Jubilee!

Anyone got latest news on Trent Barrett?

His injury didn't look good at all, hope he's alright and recovers well. Would suck to see yet another shocking injury.

We've had 3 big ones in 3 rounds now :(

Apparently there was no major damage according to Hadley just before 6. Matt Cooper has torn his hamstring though, he'll be gornskis for a little while.

I sincerely hope the officials consider reducing capacity of that ground, they must've oversold hill tickets because the GA was asking us to stand up. Poor management all told IMO, needs about 1,000 less capacity to be safe and comfortable.

As if, I'd rather it standing room only and pack 25,000 into the ground. And when we score tries, it goes off.

In all honesty, thought today was the perfect-sized crowd. The only people who were having problems were the people in the front couple of rows on the hill. The back 1/3 of the hill was all standing area anyway. It was awesome.

What a day.

33rd minute. A Sharks player looks like he's coming up short of the try line and then at the last second he pushes the ball towards the line.

The player attempts to claim a try and the referee makes him play the ball.

I had recorded the game and I re-wound and watched it over and over and over again, attempting to freeze frame it the second he grounded the ball and from the angle on television the ball was sitting right on the line.

Yet they didn't go to the video to check it and channel 9 didnt show any replays whatsoever. They didnt allude to it at all.

Wierd. Sharks lose a game - add 6 points to the scoreline and they win.

I am happy to admit that I didn't get to see it from a number of angles - but I thought that was a glaring error by the referees. A player has claimed a try. f**king check it.
