Game day vs donkeys

[Weaponhead]

I am sick to death of a large chunk of this team and the genius of a coach.

Puru, Atkinson and Blayke on at the same time, in the middle. As if you even have Puru and Atkinson on the same bench. When OK went down, it HAD to be Puru and someone like Tuks in, with Atko out. Atkinson must have got about 5 mins - complete waste of 2 interchanges.

Hynes is an absolute joke. Little mental
Midget scaredy cat…. Shits himself in collision, shits himself when pressure is on. Awful!

Ramien - Dog shit, absolute dog shit. And dumb dumb dumb.

Absolute joke of a loss.

I'm so sick of this team that I did the weekly shop at 2pm to avoid watching. Then curiosity got the better so watched on delay.

Ramien's 5 minutes of no discipline, giving 5 away penalties and 6 agains was a microcosm of this team. Dumb plays, short cuts and leg ups leading to easy try. Katoa's stupidity with 1 second on the clock. Ronnie dropping an easy ball and whining that it went back. All poor concentration.

The lack of commitment to defence is telling. Averaging 32 points against in the last 5 games. That is a joke for a team that considers themselves contenders. If defence is attitude then the Sharks attitude stinks. The lack of leadership (including coaching staff) is alarming. As soon as another team aims up, the Sharks back off. As soon as there is adversity, they crumble. No one in this squad has the gravitas to drive the required standard.

8.09 that is what NRL says the amount of time Atkinson on the field.
That is the amount of time you ease a new player in Puru had 24 mins.
JC had 58
Uel and Rudolf around 35 each.
8.09 seriously Burns would have offered more, also no hitups for Atkinson and 5 tackles.
Even Tuuks if available he could have made a couple of charges into line been a bigger body for Haas when he had a run at us

Blayke's just gave @Chimp a shout out

Great to see him finally get one. He’s getting better - I really didn’t like the post try thing though, shows a lack of intensity. More bothered about getting a message to someone than keeping focussed on the job.
Well aware I might be being harsh there, but it’s that sort of lack of focus across the team that really costs us.

And I'm 2nd half he had a go at the team he was at funny half and the rest of team not ready

Mind is boggling.

How many funny half runs did he have in this game?

I saw Brailey score from funny half.

He's a stand up guy.

Melbourne away next week, it just gets better

Sharks will be out of the 8 next week and you can all plan for next year
I want the coach, hynes , ramien ,mcciness and kennedy gone

 

[Surely]

Went to the game , they pulled the rudder out of the water after brailey scored.

Sitting next to a donks fan , he said oh well that's the game done now, I said haven't watched many sharks games have you.

The funny thing is what all that stupidity we where actually winning, and at The end they f**ked it all up.

Yes. The Donks are in the grand final for most mentally weak team in the comp. Yay for the Sharks, they just won something.

There a very hard team to follow, my son in law yesterday no worries there's always a light and the end of the tunnel, come and follow the Roosters. I have really had a gutful following this mob you know the song when the going gets tough the tough get going, not for our team.

One of the greatest posts of the year, nay forever.
I’m on the train trudging to work looking like a loon laughing my head off. Thanks you

Just come back from an early morning sortee to downtown Emu Park and I was all prepared to cop shit from all sides. Thankfully for moi not one Donkey supporter was in sight or crossed my path.

Although, one of the deli girls still saw fit to put shit on me about last weeks State of Origin. Luckily for her that she neglected to mention yesterdays capitulation as I was quite prepared to drop her with a crisp left hook.

Im Keen for Perth but might head back to the Sharks if Perth signs Hynes

My father in law always texts me at half time with “sharks looking good!” Etc. he means well but I’ve put him on silent since 2023.

It’s interesting isn’t it.
The periods of the game where we are playing footy like the first half we look great. In every game this year where we have played conservative and held onto a lead we look like shit.

Is that a coaching message saying, pull the rudder out or is it the players?

The Madge 2nd half playbook was simple- Attack Ramien’s side. 3 unanswered tries. Thanks for coming. On par with the cowboys as the worst team to watch currently in the NRL. Even the knights show more ticker.

Ramien would struggle to make the Newtown side on form yet he is gifted games each week. The copy and paste needs to stop.

Fitzy, you can’t expect improvement when you’re flogging a dead horse. Show some bloody balls would ya and drop the underperforming players.

No surprise. Check this out. Right side is a sieve.
