As a Storm supporter I am not happy that sharks are going through all this crap but I am sure that in 2010 you were voicing your opinion and pouring on the hate towards us Storm supporters. You are going through nothing compared to the hatred that is thrown at us and you are sooking about it

The whole Cronulla team should stand together in times of hardship not go against each other.

Geez you Storm types are still victims are you?

The Sharks are shit at football. Your side cheated and made two seasons completely non-existent in the history of the game. The hate was deserved, especially with all the fans and staff playing the victim card.

No comparison.

Surely the players should be able to motivate themselves as a team to score a point . Not much of a captain if he's relying on Sharpe to have them prepared .

Bellamy got off scot free
4 years of rampant cheating under his nose and reckons he had no idea.

Flano gets banned and the club fined 1 mil for a governance issue.

Not for actual drug cheating that has not been proven.
Governance ...

Storm got off lightly.

Slight difference
Your mob cheated the cap substantially for years and won titles doing it.
Your coach denies any knowledge
Your players denied all knowledge

Gallen basically told his team to pull their fingers out and have a go .

I think a comparison can be made.
Your mob injected substances for god knows how long.
Flanno denies any knowledge
Your players denied all knowledge
What does Gallen do? Join the media circus and make Sharp a scapegoat on national radio.

Got no issue with what he said.
It very well have been his last resort? He very well may have aired his issues with the coach and players previously to no effect. Kinda with carch on this the Storm and the sharks issues are not the same other then they are both putting a lot of outside and internal pressure on the players and coaching staff.

I see gallens comments as out of sheer frustration more then anything else. The Sharks have had a wealth of injuries and to be fair had some fair dinkum tries disallowed as well.

Hang in there guys it will get better for you.

I'm not saying they're the same, but a comparison can be made about the difficult situations clubs can be placed in. The difference is that the Storm players had a more constructive mindset toward the situation than the sharks.

The shark players had a good mindset at the start the difference between the two situations is the Storm had almost a immediate result and punishment. This ADSA bullshit has been dragging on for so f**king long with no end in sight. It would be near impossible to have a positive outlook all day everyday with that sword of dymaclese hanging over your head. :(

Using ASADA is a piss weak excuse. It is even more reason to do well. They're still playing for points and a chance to make the finals. I think they tried hard after Flanno was dismissed, but couldn't come up with the wins and have used ASADA and Sharp as a foil for their poor performance.

You have a look at another club under investigation by ASADA - Essendon.
They're in the top half of the ladder. Its really up to players and coaches how they want to approach the situation.

First of all, Essendon have a rich benefactor and have never been under any financial strain. Secondly, up until about 2 weeks ago the players were all under the impression they had nothing to worry about because of the deal that was struck where they would not serve any time out of the game.

So - strip Essendon's sponsors, plunder their bank accounts and fast forward 18 months with the players shiteing themselves for the entire period and we'll see how they're going.

The financial aspect is a red herring IMO. You guys have the development project in the pipeline and also being underwritten by the NRL in any event.
