A side coached as well as melbourne are would be able to cope in the short term, long term different scenario.

*Bump* LOL@LU!! (We are yet to play FOUR of the bottom FIVE teams for those constantly claiming the easy draw is the reason for the clubs blistering start) You're all morons!

Nine down. Sharks are getting nervous.

Why would that be?

All the experts predicted us to win 3 games all year. A winning streak has to end some time.

As long as we beat souths, that will be fine. The sharks will worry about the storm next week.

Interesting stats madunit.

I've been nervous about the Sharkies game fir a while. If we don't start well next week and let a few in like we did last night the Sharkies will run away with it.

A couple of weeks back I could see them going undefeated into origin, the only real worry was the Warriors.
