Game Day: Mighties -v- Tyson Gamble and the Bad Pongs....

[2012....Sharks Year]

Haven't read the thread so it's probably been covered but two things stood out for me today. Love Sifa but back to the pigs big fella. Extra beef hasn't helped him laterally in defence. Doubt the Knights get close to us today had Iro been playing. Also why was Tuks only used for what seemed like 10-15 mins? Offers so much more than BHU imo.

 

[2012....Sharks Year]

Playing for Golden Point 17 minutes out.
Love that.

Worked a treat as it turned out

 

[Peach & Apricot]

Why did we re-sign BHU?

 

[Generalzod]

The best is the Knights coach’s comments in the presser saying that Graham will dress it up on Monday re the sin bin call.

Very risky words. But I doubt he gets in any real trouble.

Don’t know why he was complaining about the sin bin Newcastle where up by 8 points.

 

[PJ]

No

Who thought that the Knights first try was actually a knock on....

No doubt. First touch was back then second dragged it forward

Why did we re-sign BHU?

I doubt he would have played if the team didn't have to. There's something not right with him. (still)

 

[Quigs]

I said that about BHU when he did his first hit and Old mate and I agreed. He looked like he shouldn't be out there. Crook, injured or what. He was going at about 65%.

 

[Weaponhead]

BHU is way off the pace. His runs have far less impact than the other props. He is slow in the defensive line.

I thought that he would be a much needed boost coming into finals but can't see that now.

The coach is a pillock.

Impressed with the speed that Atkinson dropped the ball onto his foot for the field goal, no fluffing around taking a couple of steps or anything, just catch drop punt all in the one motion.

 

[dinghydi]

Yay! We won ! Wouldnt know it from this thread ,but considering The Knights were desparate , Sharkies had so many disruptions ,sickness and injury, ( who knows how many were effected by sickness if some withdrew sick just b4 game ?) I wouldnt make any judgements off that game except .... WE WON ! Another 2 points Yay !

 

[chewsta]

Why did we go away from the simple game plan of just punching it up behind the markers at 100miles an hour? It worked great. We also seem to save our worst performances for home games. Something that definitely needs addressing.

 

[R-15-3]

Missed Williams starting in the middle.
Missed Iro work rate on the edge.
Uele, Berrell & Burns arnt up to it.
Tuks & Hunt under used.
Sifa is a backrower / middle not a Center.

Good signs are Rudolf, Kafusi and Braily are hitting their peaks at the right time of the year. Considering they have been our weakness for large chunks of the season it’s a good sign.
Add plenty of guys coming back before the finals.
Win was better than most are giving credit

 

[bluefox68]

Once you ‘sleep on it’ you feel better about the win…

Even in a ‘winning season’ there are going to be some ugly wins.
It all gets forgotten if you do well in the finals…

 

[Bookie]

The panthers have choked out wins in the last 15 minutes every game. With ramjet. A wins a win.

Yes to all of this.

Atkinson should teach Hynes how to setup for a field goal.

 

[Quigs]

Atkinson should teach Hynes how to setup for a field goal.

Atkinson should tell the dickheaded blockers to f**k right off while he is kicking a field goal especially when the opposition just got pinged for the same thing.

Sheeze we play dumb footy at times.
