You merkins can whinge all you want about the No Try, and I'm in no way a Sharks or Gallen fan, but from the day I first played the game, I was told that you can't/shouldn't touch the marker.... if you do, you could get penalised... it might be petty but if you just keep your hands off the marker you've got nothing to worry about. And saying "everyone else does it" is no excuse as we have seen...

They could at least call the stupid daily telegraph sensationalist tackle name tag correctly. Surely it's a wishbone tackle not a drumstick. Wrong part of the chook you clowns.

Of course it wasn't even a penalty. The tacklers didn't pull his legs apart.

It was literally a pat. Guarentee you'll see 50 times more of the same thing go unpenalised

Tigers are not the team to try fancy dink bats against, too dangerous in broken play.

We are such terrible favourites. We go two tries up and stop respecting the opposition

you know it was never made clear what type of shark Cronulla represent.

Could it be a pussy shark?

Fair enough....50 penalties per game coming up, if they want to be consistent then.

I'm not sure what chickens look like where you are but I'm pretty sure the wishbone joins the clavicles.

YES ..... BUT..... how does the bunker know it was only a "tap"..... just put your f**king hands in your pocket after you play the ball or off the marker and you've nothing to worry about....

It's like every merkin who falls over when a decoy runner makes the slightest contact with them in a try scoring opportunity - they do it because they are taking the odds to the chance that falling over might save a try...
