2020 R3 Sat - Sharks 16-28 Wests Tigers @ Bankwest

[Bazal]

Oh dear, Moylan. Where did it all go wrong ?

Sometime on June 16, 1991

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

That's a great kick, Benji

 

[Tommy Smith]

Peahearts like Moylan & Dugan eat away at a club's culture like a disease.

When you replace heart & soul ultra pros like Luke Lewis & Michael Ennis with sheilas like Moylan, Dugan & SJ then you really are asking for trouble.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Hodgson was quality

Yeah, one of the few that came to mind as an exception. Joel Caine did as well but I don't think his conversion rate was too flash

Skando was 100%.

 

[KOMORI]

Almost feels like they've had part-time kickers since inception

Since Ross Conlon?

 

[footy75]

Put a fork in Cronulla.

 

[Exsilium]

The Sharks should bring Michael Gordon out of retirement just to kick goals.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

The Sharks should bring Michael Gordon out of retirement just to kick goals.

They’ll have to fight us for his signature.

 

[This Year?]

Well done Tigers. At least my night isn't completely f**ked.

*Skolls half a beer then curls back up on the lounge*

 

[The unknown]

Walters was huge at the end there, I thought he was just a reserve grade hack

maybe this 2 dummy half thing might work

 

[simmo05]

Tigers desperately need a goal kicker

Have not had one since hodgeson retired 35 years ago

 

[simmo05]

Yeah, one of the few that came to mind as an exception. Joel Caine did as well but I don't think his conversion rate was too flash

It's joel caine and Brett hodgeson, no one else of note.

And didn't caine get top point scorer one year?

 

[Perth Tiger]

It's joel caine and Brett hodgeson, no one else of note.

And didn't caine get top point scorer one year?

And even those two had a couple of bad kicking years

 

[Frailty]

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.
