[The Vaulting Violinist]

Penrith by 6 Luke Lewis hamburgers at panthers HJs after the game

 

[Vic Mackey]

The sharks hit their straps last week and I think they’ll keep that momentum for a while now. Panthers have been horrible all year. They get Kikau back but lose Maloney. Expect their play ‘give it to Kikau’ to be used every set. Johnson will be sore Saturday, but he’ll have the 2 Points to make him feel better. Cronulla by 10.

 

[TheFrog]

Maloney charged 3 times in the season (including this one) so can't get a fine, even though he was found not guilty at the judiciary on one of them. Rather odd rule, and a case of a punishment without a crime (sort of). He was stupid to stick the leg out, though.

Sharks have hit a purple patch while we've lost two. They've finally got their team on the paddock. Sharks lost to the same two not so long ago but it doesn't matter. Unless we find some attacking ability we'll get rolled here.

 

[Valheru]

Panthers bubble has burst.

Sharks to make a run to the finals and win by 8

 

[carcharias]

Panthers by 13

 

[footy75]

Penrith look lost in attack.

Sharks by 8

Season went from 'Ok.. interesting' to 'I'll be glad when it's over' in a couple of weeks

It can turn back, like the Sharks have.

 

[2 weeks]

See we need Trent Merrin back in the NRL so these teams can again play for The Sally Fitzgibbons Cup.

 

[soc123_au]

Sharks by the length of Wade Graham's schlong.

 

[mongoose]

After what both teams dished up last week, Sharks by 22.

 

[Tiger Shark]

Looks like no Moylan potentially, shame he always has a blinder against his old club.

 

[ACTPanthers]

Sharks by the length of Wade Graham's schlong.

Inches or centimetres?

With Moylan apparently being out, we MAY have a SLIGHT chance of winning, but I doubt it. Call me a glass-half-empty kind of guy if you must, but given our "effort" last week, I can't see it really being a contest at all.

Our attack is just terrible, and I just can't fathom where our points (if we manage any) come from.

I think the Sharks will run away with it about mid way through the second half and effectively end any chance we had of making the finals.

 

[pantherz9103]

We’re out of form again and will have key players out, Sharks are now in form and we never beat them anyway...

Sharks will only have to turn up with the right attitude and then they win by 10-20 points. *Yawn* not happy Ivan!

 

[pantherz9103]

*double post*

 

[TheFrog]

Grant Atkins main ref, could be worse. Muppet Klein in the bunker though.

 

[JB04]

It’s Tuesday, 5:49pm and the ref blaming has already begun

 

[Card Shark]

We’re out of form again and will have key players out, Sharks are now in form and we never beat them anyway...

Sharks will only have to turn up with the right attitude and then they win by 10-20 points. *Yawn* not happy Ivan!

Hope you’re right but you are due for a win against us!

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Both Cleary’s to be shown as bums in this game.

Sharks 13+
