Sharks with first mistake knocking on bomb under Berry pressure.

Set of 6 inside their 20m showed no organisation. Nikoirma grubber trapped, held back Sharks player so penalised.

Walsh should of had 6 again, but RTS earns it next tackle.
Jazz lifted by Woods last horizontal, but tucked neck.

Nice grubber, but effort to get to it by Siro touches before it's dead giving them 7 tackles vs a dropout.

Woods terrible play the ball called in the next set luckly.

RTS dumps ball with force out the back.
Jazz loses 15m but Sharks punch ball out after tackle and penalised.
Starting on their 30m.

Nikorima offside on SoS grubber to ingoal that taken dead so penalty and Sharks starting near halfway.

Sharks grubber to big as Walsh watches it roll over.

Terrible bomb by Niromia 10m out, Berry does a great job, flicks to DWZ who kicks at posts and Walsh scores after arising by Sharks

0-6

SoS with a great charge down but Lodge called offside when ball landed in his hands.
To easy for sharks to score, Berry came in get his man but leaves a massive gap for Tracey to score.

6-6

Lodge hits catches falling Mulatalo high and penalised, second effort on head deserved it more. He straight to bench.

Great shot by DWZ, SJ grubber taken dead by SoS.
Second SJ grubber had SoS forcing it.
4th set for Sharks.
Walsh knocks on SJ grubber
5th set for Sharks.
Tackle restart, apparently marker no square, when it was Rudolf waling off the mark. So 6th set.
Simple hit and spin by Sharks running at Nikorima, Katoa coming to fast from inside.

12-6

Now we kick out on full from kick off with Sharks foot in touch catching
Starting on our 30m
Set restart inside the 10m.
The Ham score and bowels over Walsh and pulls out a great people's elbow post try. What a great sell on the pulled punch by Williams.

18-6

Now SoS pulls out a high shot.

RTS drops a bomb, Sharks regather and lucky they didn't score.
Walsh then knocks ball out with 40sec left.
Ref calls Walsh not square and penalised. You don't have to be square that close to line.

20-6

Halftime

Sharks knock on breaking the line, Walsh makes a semi break.
Attack fell apart on left, good defense from Sharks shuts it down on right.
DWZ called to knock on Berry offload.

Penalty as Katoa leg pulled when trying for a quick play the ball.
BMM called drops the ball, replay shows it loose but never came away.

Finally some smarts, SoS stripped the ball off, brother in laws with good communication in the tackle.
Siro gets a swinging arm to nose, which is bleeding.
How is that NOT 10 in the bin???
What a f**ken joke. NRL is a joke.
Penalty to long in ruck by Sharks.

Katoa goes over line, crooked refs says no try, so crooked bunker won't confirm it.
f**k off.

Murchie touches ball going out back and it intercept by SJ.

Knock on by Sharks in the pass by Berry, then another goes to ground.

Murchie puts down a ball at his knees.

Walsh a great return, then we start slipping balls everywhere, 1 called knock on by Lodge. Captains challenge, Lodge touches it and goes backwards, bunker says it Rudolf knock on, not right but right call. Challenge successful.

Nice play, RTS pops from behind SoS with Bunty running an inside line drawing in defense and RTS scores.

20-12

Now AFB done for a crusher that we couldnt buy last week in Golden point.

Another forward pass by Sharks let go.

Katoa takes ball dead turning and chasing SJ grubber.
Another SJ grubber taken dead.
3rd set for Sharks.
6 more ruck infringement.
4th set.
Ball lost by Sharks, lucky as Montoya pushing down on his back as he trying to play it.

AFB hits him in the chin with a swinging arm. On report and penalised. It use to be sin in.

SJ grubber taken dead again.

Rudolf drops ball in Lodge tackle.

WTF happened there, Montoya kick thru puts everyone offside. Siro doesn't touch it but Murchie does who was offside.

Sharks lose ball in Jazz tackle. Captains challenge tactics used to get a rest.
Scrum on their 20m.
Walsh ball to far in front of DWZ goes out. Very early early in tackle count.
Game done with 5mins to go.

Crazy game of scrag. Walsh let's bomb bounce, SJ kicks it, DWZ knocks on, Sharks run away with it, 25m, Sharks dragged out, elbow carrying ball touches ground and passed with tackle players still touching him also but apparently no camera angle to show him dragged out.
Ref can't make the call when discussing it at the scrum as apparently didn't make the call.

Last pass from Sharks call forward, why call them now? Or ref to the rules??

Nikorima kick to Sharks winger early in tackle count. Terrible execution.
Lodge puts foot into play the ball and penalised. Dumb.

Season officially done.

Enjoy the Queensland holiday boys.

We looked way better at the beginning of the year right? How do you regress so much after gaining Walsh and DWZ?
You get a pretty good preseason with players competing for spots, get 6 weeks with combos. The season starts and injuries hit and he don't get any combos going. That was our 5th (or 6th) halves combo?

That's no penalty by Lodge! What was he supposed to do? The player fell awkwardly into him, and low.

Now the Sharks look like they will score off the back of that, and they do.

12-6. Them.
I'm happy with it being a penalty under the new rules. But I am NOT if a swinging arm to the nose is not a 10 min sin bin.

The halves were absolutely dreadful, at least you got to see one first hand with a bit of polish coming next year

That Lodge penalty was a tough call, but he would have been done for all the unnecessary stuff on the neck on the ground anyway

Watching the weekend I’m now more confused than ever what high contact gets 10. Souths and Cows had near identical incidents where one went and one didn’t, and that AFB one was automatic bin a few weeks back

Brown finally had a go at how we are ref'd in the post match conferences. The confusion about how things are ruled in each week and between teams.
He said it wasn't the reason we lost, standard lapses and control of came issues.
