Good onya Sharkies you well and truly deserved the win.
Enjoy the offseason and rest up because next year comes with the added pressure of being the defending champions.
Glad "the menace" stayed true to form for the last game just loved watching him dish out his special brand of annoying behaviour.

Kind of fitting to dominate the game, surrender the lead then snatch it back and hang on in a mad scramble to beat the Cronullafication curse.

The script was written for the hard luck story but this team just wouldn't have it. Winners.

Just a side note,this morning on ch7 the AFL besotted station,they made a big deal of one Shark's supporter arrested for drunkeness etc.One person out of near 84,000.Crisis !!!!!!!!! Of course their morning show.
Would they do that at an AFL G/F no way.

That was a great game, I really enjoyed that. Fully deserved win and the end of a hoodoo. The refs got out the way and let the game flow and without the wrestle the Storm can't win. The annoying thing is, when they throw the ball around and try and play a bit of footy, they are quite entertaining. But most of the time they play boring, conservative, dreadful football. He may be a good coach in terms of winning, but Bellamy's teams do nothing for the beauty of the game. Thank heavens you showed how they can be beaten.

You run them off their feet, moved the ball whenever you could so they couldn't set their gang tackles. You hit the line with such ferocity they couldn't hold you up in tackles and do their dance. You didn't give them to many 7 tackles sets and run the ball dead so you could set your defence. Good coaching from Flanno and good execution from the players.

Great stuff Sharkies and congratulations. Next year is the young Panther's turn (I hope) and hopefully the Storm dirge is beaten once more!

We sort of borrowed that from them and turned back at them. That first 20 minutes was ferocious, frenzied stuff from the Sharks.

Exactly. The offload stats are interesting. Storm 11, Sharks 3. The Sharks out Melbourned Melbourne.

Storm played footy because plan A wasn't working.

I haven't really taken breath yet. When all was said and done I didn't really want to yahoo. Did that through the game and was a spent force. Just kind of sat quietly with a little grin when I thought I'd go off reservation.

As light as a f**ken feather. I am the nicest dude on the road, letting people cut in, smiling and waving.

Have we done a forum headcount? Any MIA?

Bump, just watched the GF again. I think I missed this thread through an alcohol fuelled weekend that saw us take home the glory. A childhood dream come true, a fan for life though. I'll support the Sharks till my last breath. One or two more would be nice :D It's a great feeling.

Good read you lot, also showed up what an absolute knob that Ryhno trackhead is. Trolling in a GF game thread, what a loser haha

Cheers Premiers, might slip down the road for a few celebratory ales.

It was great to watch a modern-era game without the 6-agains and the HIA’s…

I know we have to preserve the players, etc. but we would’ve lost Graham and Lewis - without a doubt!

Also great to be reminded that Chad is okay, but it was most definitely Ennis and Maloney running the show. Chad’s massive grubber kick was the error that led to the Storm hitting the front. Fifita saved us…
