2016 Wk 1 Qual Final - Raiders 14-16 Sharks @ GIO Stadium

[Meth]

Ha f**k off he is having a great year

Yeah, but who watches the Sharks?

 

[Sphagnum]

A mate of mine who's a souths fan used to call him 'F*%kwell' cause he hated him so much. True story

Cool story, brah

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

I think Capewell has... i thought he was that shitty fullback Luke Capewell at first. Wondering how he had bulked up and not looked awful.

Lol. Are they brothers or cousins? Definitely related. Both played for Ipswich last year I think.

Kurt was always NRL quality talent wise, just needed some extra time to mature after moving from the wing/centres to the backrow.

 

[Puntoue]

He's probably played himself into an NRL contract for next year

He's already signed.

Rumour is he's Heighno's replacement for next year.

He's been impressive in the 2 1/2 games he played.

Why is Priest in the team over Vaughan?

They're cousins.

Indeed. Sharks are hanging in there. But it feels like the floodgates will open at any moment.

So much better than last nights match. Not every call is spot on. But it doesn't feel like the fix is in either.

Raiders have home field advantage though.
Not sure why the floodgates would open? They would have had a lot of fuel burned in that first half.

I like the Raiders but if the Sharks switch on can they defend?

Why is Priest in the team over Vaughan?

Who knows

 

[St Tangles]

Well the fkn coach thinks otherwise

Has played well in the lower grades.
Both he and Nu Brown have looked like top graders.

 

[gUt]

Well done to both teams, really exciting and intense game to half time

 

[Vic Mackey]

Why is Priest in the team over Vaughan?

Seems ridiculous

According to wiki they're cousins.

Kurt looks a decent talent. Great performance for a finals match against a red hot team. Wouldn't hold it against him if he looked out of his depth.

 

[Pete Cash]

Yeah its a weird one.

Who can say what a character like sticky is thinking but i reckon he thinks priest is better at wrestling and slowing the ruck down

 

[Game_Breaker]

Yeah, Raiders will be pissed of with the score at half-time

 

[Puntoue]

Why is Priest in the team over Vaughan?

Because no matter how good he and his side is going, Ricky always needs to baffle and annoy his fans with a shit selection.

 

[txta2]

Yeah, but who watches the Sharks?

More than the Warriors this week lol

 

[MilkShark]

Raiders should be a lot further in front. They haven't impressed with everything going their way.

 

[Pete Cash]

The other option is vaughan is gone for sure next year and he is playing for the future.

 

[GAZF]

Yeah its a weird one.

Who can say what a character like sticky is thinking but i reckon he thinks priest is better at wrestling and slowing the ruck down

Might be worried about getting too tired with such a large pack.

 

[shear_joy9]

how are the sharks going to use beale? They are pretty limited without graham

beale to centre and bird to backrow?
