Great to see such disciplined teams play tonight.

As Annessley said...the better sides don't infringe as much.....if only someone had told them that for the last 27 weeks.
It absolutely does my head in.

They spend a 192 game season playing to one set of "won't someone think of the children!" rules...

Then a 9 game finals series under "let the two teams decide" rules...

It's rubbish.

Yes I'm bitter because my team never got that memo in 5 years near the top, but it doesn't mean my point is wrong.

If the coach is saying “We’ve just got to work on earning each other’s respect and if we do that we’ll earn external respect eventually, at some point, maybe, I doubt it,” to his team at this stage of the season then I don't think he is leading them out of their finals drought.

Cows 34-16.

Sharks off to a straight sets shindig that will stress test the shire's supply chain for illegal substances.

Any other great insights you can provide us?

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.


Hahahaha !!!!!

Gold!!!

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?

Oh they’re real fun.

lol.
