2016 R22 - Sharks 14-30 Raiders @ Southern Cross Group Stadium

Jarrod Croker > Jack Bird

 

[Card Shark]

Was a great win by the Raiders, really stuck it to us.

Don't like losing, even after 138 days without 1, but not upset losing to the Raiders, if it helps them make top 4, which it will...same goes for the draw with the Titans.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

I think it will be one of those cases of where it's a loss a Sharks needed to have. Cronulla have been great but they've gotten by with some pretty scratchy performances of late. This might just kick them back into gear.

Jarrod Croker > Jack Bird

Considering he has played 184 nrl games and is 5 years older, he probably should be better.

In the end though, it will come down to who played the most origin games. Bird>Croker

 

[Pete Cash]

Croker is seriously underrated though. His defence has been great lately and it was good to get a win back on bird who took the points last time

Well given Croker will almost certainly become the highest pointscorer in history, and bird will have a collection of series losses to his name, I think I know which one I'd rather be...

 

[skeepe]

Go buy yourself a lottery ticket if you're a Canberra supporter. You had every single bunker call go your way in attack and defence.

Got to play us after 10 minutes of extra time last week and a 5 day turn around.

Mick Ennis pulled out of the game in the morning of the match with a virus.

Hope you're cocky because if we play you in the finals you will come down to earth with a thud.

Thanks for the belly laugh. 5/7, would read and laugh again.

Getting picked for this year's NSW side is not something you'd want to admit, let alone brag about

Without google, who is the highest point scorer in history currently. Better yet since it means so much, who are the top three in history??

Croker will never be able to brag about that. It was less than a season ago you raiders fans wanted him gone. Turnstyle, adds nothing in attack etc etc

Seriously? Who would f**king need google to figure out that? All the top 3 have played in the last 10 years and broken the record in that span! Haha.

El Mazri holds it now
Johns and Taylor round out the top 3

Halligan is 4th. Cant remember who is 5th. Might be JT or Smith? They are in the top 10 im pretty sure

Next question.

Hahaha. Wow, you've just clearly shown you aren't quite all there and it'd just be cruel to take advantage of you. I'll leave you be.

Exactly leave the geniused guy alone

 

[Pete Cash]

Haha who couldnt name the highest point scorer lol

I'd say Taylor & Johns have been out of the game more than 10 years...time goes fast?

i'd be a bit worried that over those 2 games they have looked more like the 2015 version- little attacking talent, just scrap and bring teams back to their level.

 

[Card Shark]

Finals generally are a scrap but this year we have some attacking players that could pull off a miraculous play.

 

[nick87]

No. That cant be right. It's not been over 10 years since those guys played! It cant be. f**k!

 

[Card Shark]

Been a while, if not 10, it'd be close.

 

[nick87]

Nope, you're right
Taylor finished up nearly 15 years ago and Johns 11. Incredible. f**k i feel old
