Yes, that Cowboys record of 5-2 in Sydney in 2024 is just awful.

Like where does this narrative that the Cowboys are going to be easybeats come from? They're 12-3 over their last 15 games, have won their last 6 away games and have a good record in Sydney.
Great stats.

But you forgot the important one.

What’s the head to head record of these two teams?

Oh I get it. That stat didn’t suit your narrative…..

What narrative? That the Cowboys are in good form?

If it matters to you, the Cowboys have a 100% record against the Sharks in their last 15 games.

I mean I also didn't include the stat that Cronulla are on an 0-7 streak in finals footy, but since you're a stickler let's go ahead and include that too.

Or what about how, in the same run of last 15 games that I mentioned, the Sharks are at less than 50%, with a 7-8 record? And in that same period, the Sharks are 1-6 when Nicho Hynes is in the team?

Maybe we should mention that the Cowboys have a 100% record at the newly rebuilt Allianz Stadium, while the Sharks have never tasted victory there?

Aren't stats fun?

Wow sounds like the Cowboys are going to wipe the floor with us.

Get on them to win 13+ and bet big!!

at least Newcastle scraped into the 8, so the rest of us get to sit back and watch them re-sign Obrien for another 5 years
He only needed to finish higher than 13th better make it a 10 year extension.
I get why Sharks fans are so touchy. Gonna go out in straight sets again and spending a million a year on a halfback who plays like Grant Rovelli when it matters.

People say Cowboys are dark horses but to win we need to win in Sydney 3 weeks in a row. Not happening. 1 week though is very possible so Cowboys to get Sharks. We have too many players good at closing out big games.

Nicho masterclass - Sharkies get home in this one

if Nicho is dropped this week, tell him to starting looking for another club at the same time

Cows lucky to be playing an extra week, Sharks will get the hoodoo off their back finally

the result wont matter, both winners of this weekends games will finish their season in week 3

This game gets the Klein experience

Good luck to both sets of fans
How he still involved anywhere near first grade blows my mind. Week in week out he is totally incompetent and I bet if U surveyed how many controversial Moments there have been this year I bet he was involved in most

Meanwhile Gee gets rorted
