I have not got one of those walkie talkie mobile phone thingies. I hate the fharkers.

Narhh me problem with those wake ups in the wee small hours is that me old brain kicks in and it won't let me return to deep sleep mode.

Usually takes me about 40 minutes to cruise back to the dark side.
I’m exactly the same mate. Either I need a piss or the wife’s snoring and up I get. Can’t go straight back to sleep, 45 minutes to an hour before I start feeling sleepy again. So I look at things on my iPad like this forum or porn and I toddle back into bed again.

I thought I was the only bloke that did this, the missus just doesn’t understand why I wake up in the middle of the night.

Up at 430am every day - maybe Sunday is a sleep in and Saturday 530am. Been the same way since kids came about years ago. Early 50s and I can wake up at 130 and not get back to sleep. Normally about a 230 wake up.
I’m either out at gym, walking or going to the city for work a few days a week.
Best time of the day
In bed at 930 though

The club has been pretty poor on the Social media front. Instead of whinging about playing it at Allianz, try and drum it up a bit and get fans interested in going. Have an open training session to get the spirits up and a bit of interaction. Anything

Cowboys have conveniently not booked flights on a commercial jet in time and now booked out so asking the NRL for a private charter. f**k them make them go past Brisbane on their way to Sydney
Entitled merkins have done this on purpose.

Beat them by 1 and let me wank to paytons tears.

Also - up every day before 5. Train at 6. Cry about the Sharks by 7.

Well the NRL have given us QLDs no1 referee for the game despite his monumental blunder last week which even Annesley couldn’t defend with a straight face…

This analysis was found after Parra shat the bed in the 2022 GF cooked after the prelim the week before in Townsville.

Cowboys haven't fared any better either week after playing in finals in Townsville.

It will be Interesting if the trend continues

An open training session is too distracting imo with such a short turn around. They’re probably only having a few training sessions as it is given they flew back Sunday and play Friday

just saw the cowboys doing one.. but you’re probably right.. I just don’t think there’s much effort in drumming up too much interest with those fans who may be on the fence about going.. they should be promoting it and making a huge deal that it’s not over yet, we have a second chance blah blah

Agreed but a sad state that we need to make an extra effort to drum up support.

Sharks fans must be some of the worst travelling fair weather fans around sometimes

Everything from the club is giving me the shits at the moment:
- Nicho can't help but front the media about 'blocking out the noise'. Just go out and play!
- The club complaining they can't play a semi at Shark Park. I love the ground, but it's in no state for a week 2 finals game.
- Fitzy responding to a hammering in week one but naming the exact same team.
- The club providing close to zero coverage of the Jersey Flegg and NSW Cup finals runs.

They're defaulting back to the 'meh, we're happy with where we are at' attitude.

This p**ses me off too. We have 2 teams in preliminary finals this Saturday. Those guys are a pool of potential future first graders. We also have the ladies team heading for the semi finals. 4 teams participating in finals is indicative of the club being a pretty successful organisation at present. That's one narrative I'd be pushing if I was in a position to do so.

- If Nicho didn't front the media, people would be bagging him saying "Where's Nicho?", "Nicho is scared" etc. Can't win. He addressed it front on.
- Raimen in, Sifa to bench changes a lot for us in terms of our D and bench.
- The club has two people in social media. One was in Melbourne, one was in QLD for the NRLW over the weekend.
 

Frenzy.

He said some dumb things that actually added to "the narrative". If he was actually blocking it out he DOESN'T mention it. But it's foremost in his weak arsed head.

Whoever let Hynes front the media yesterday should be sacked.

It gave room for those total fools, Ritchie and Crawley, to narrate another story and twist it to about them, the journos.
Just circle the f&^king wagons and get the Captain to speak.
It's not that hard, surely.
