$40 bucks
I’ve been getting a season pass to stand in mud for years, which is cheaper and honestly is pretty much just okay but I’m done. In the words of Danny Glover, I’m too old for this shat.
Shadow for me going to the football was a ritual when I was young I used to love going to the football walking to the football, making a day of it , now that Im a lot older back problems there no way in hell will I pay 40 bucks just to stand up. Also I think we need bite the bullet and use SFS as home ground, I don’t see my local member Speakman or ElenI for Miranda fund any upgrades for Shark park..

Walking to the game, goinf to someone house pre game for a few then standing on beer hill and sitting down in the timber sleepers at the summertime bar pre and post game.
Simple pleasures done away with now.
Sad but reality in the modern world.
The idea of SFS is a beauty, but not in the died in the wool who can’t see through blue back and white glasses that the place is a shat hole and has been for 10 years

Brailey was shit. Lots of wrong options, terrible passes and got bumped off a lot of tackles. Haven’t looked at the stats but he seemed to miss a lot or at least make terrible contact.


All starts with the pack , if they can't get momentum the hooker and halves are going to have a tough night.

So pretty much our forwards are shit , plodding props lightweight backrower and lock.

yep. Forwards continued and will continue to be bullied. Said it weeks ago, Nikora is too busy trying to put shots on every second tackle for the highlights reel rather than just making solid contact and wrapping the ball up

The coach owns the pack. He signed or re-signed them.

The Sharks are inoffensive and wholly inconsequential in this comp. No one gives a flying that they have turned it up in the last 2 games. Take it them physically and they fold like a portable card table.

The coach has also pinned his hopes on this spine. Brailey had a blinder against Melbourne but that was an anomaly. Nicho and Trindall are like fighting 14 year old girls, not talking and getting more petulant every week.

The comment about the squad being stale is on the mark. The coach has made plenty of excuses this season, travel, illness, halves learning.... This squad is the most stable in the comp. They should know each other's game inside out. Familiarity has bred a lack of desire. The effort areas are shocking.

He wasn't as good as he has been in attack but he had to make 53 tackles! He missed 8 and had 4 ineffective. He was spotted and rendered ineffective. Where was everyone else while he was attempting 65 tackles?

Tieg was statistically poor as well with 8 misses and 2 ineffective. But he made 45. Another spot player for them.

Smells like being outcoached off the field and leaderless on the field as they couldn't adapt to the Wahs game plan.

Yes, ironic that they have, apparently (mentioned on FOX), used the least players of any other team. That used to be a good thing.

4 years with around 85-90% of the same players is worse than stale. That's gone past stale into decomposing.
