So many issues with the Sharks:
  • Attitude - they look like a team that just expects to win. Thing is, this team is quite different to the last few years and have no right to have that ego. The tries against are just lazy play - not due to fatigue.
  • Communication - This team doesn't look like they talk out there. Brailey grubbering into the in goal, expecting Sorenson to chase. Sorenson just stands there. Backline movement and Johnson kicks it and Ramien and Mulitano are deep looking to run the ball.
  • Quit very easily - When the Tigers tied it up at 16-all. Camera went on to Wade just before kicking off and he is shaking his head. They were broken and they were still in the game.
  • Boring play - They had 2 line breaks. Against the Tigers. 4 offloads in the game. That's less than the Broncos on Thursday. They do not challenge the line with the "Townsend float across field and turn it inside" play.
This will be a long season.

Late surge sees Wests Tigers dispose of Sharks
Adam Huxtable | May 30 2020 7:30PM


The Sharks and Wests Tigers were neck-and-neck for 60 minutes on Saturday evening before the Tigers ran away with it courtesy of some Benji magic and some terrible Sharks defence, the Tigers recording a 28-16 victory to jump into the top eight.

There was much anticipation leading into this one surrounding the performance of rookie Harry Grant and it took him less than 5 minutes to make his mark, backing up a Luke Brooks tackle break to fall over the line and become an instant favourite among Tigers fans.

The Tigers then scored another try within two minutes and the Sharks were shell shocked early. They advanced the ball around 60 metres from the set after points and put up a bomb which Sharks rookie fullback Will Kennedy couldn't handle. Moses Mbye scooped up the loose ball and got it away to Robert Jennings, who strolled over the line.
