no better in defense angry man, but a lot better in metres. Might have something to do with the different game plan too though

franze went great as well. Hope he does suceed his potential in france or italy or wherever he is goin.

He carved up today. Gower obviously trusts him now as he was refusing to give him any ball after his unforgivable ball hogging earlier this season.

Who would have thought at Round 9 this season that I'd be sad to see him go now.

According to the stats along with the hattrick he made 3 line breaks, 2 offloads and didn't have a single mistackle.

All while marking up on a current NZ international.

Franze will be a loss for you guys.
he is on the same time line as hodges in regards to knee reco.
not surprising that they are both playing really really well now.

yeah i like franze, sad to see him leave the nrl.
He was a good player in his debut year for the sharks. But injury killed him.

Well which NRL club snapped up Franze?

If he was flourishing why were the Panther fans glad to see the back of him.

He has signed a HUGE English union deal. Would you like me to start listing some of the others, or can you work it out for yourself -- here is a clue, one of them is King

King was a self confessed, un-interested hack when he was at the club mate, very hard to blame the sharks for letting go a player with the attitude he himself says he displayed.

Franze never reached any great heights for us, given plenty of chances though, and his form at the panthers has been brilliant lately, but they aren't going to make the 8 are they ? and early in the year he was no better than at the sharks.

And the point has been made, he is going to the UK mate, no NRL clubs saw fit to sign him.

He actually had THREE other offers on the table, all from NRL clubs (the obvious be all and end all), but the UK money was too good to knock back. Perhaps, I should have clarified my statement a little -- since the C. Anderson era, so ably continued by one StuePid Raper, how many Sharks backs IN ANY position have stood out?

None week to week, however plenty have shown they can shine at times even under a terrible game plan that gives them no room or impetus.

This year alone these guys can claim that :-

David Peachey
Nigel Vagana
Beau Scott
Nathan Merrit
Luke Covell

Would have to disagree totally BD -- but hey, that's football. As a matter of interest, without bias -- out of the ones you have listed -- how close to rep selection to you believe any would be playing for the Sharks -- Covell's earlier in the year doesn't count (should not have happened). Vaginamite doesn't count either -- he is being picked on past history.
