What can you really say about that game? It was everything we hoped it would be. A hard fight in which we eventually earned our way over the top of them and completely blew them out of the water once we had the upper hand.

Entire season hingeing on Ponga right now. I hope it's not too bad.

Been watching while at work but I got to see most of it.
Very nervous in the first half but we put on a performance in the 2nd.
Biggest worry right now obviously is hoping Ponga comes out ok.
Bring on the finals baby!

Wow. What a game. Perfect second half? I don't think we made a mistake and kept the Sharks to 10 completed sets or something crazy. Gagai with the chase to force the knock on when the Sharks couldn't find a kicker was inspirational. Frizzell's chase on the kick to force the knock on when the game was over was heroic. Isn't this exactly what we've been asking for all this time.

Ponga is Joey level at the moment. Lucas was great all game. Not okay but great all game. Clune has done fantastic the past two games. Every single player was great today. Loved Jack's work today as well. Even both Saifitis were on fire.

Nu Brown looks a handy pick up.

Great win. We were pretty average attack wise in the first half but definitely turned it around on the back of our defence.

Just when that cat Ramien couldn’t get anymore unlikable, shoulder charges KP and the ref does f**king nothing.

Woo finals! Who would have thought this 2 months ago!

Lucas just looks like one of those players that’s going to give the defence more problems than he should based solely on size and speed, he breaks more tackles than he should
Footwork and a lot of work today too. Will need to build combinations with the blokes around him, and would have benefited from Hastings and some better shape on the back of that today... but you can see a bit of a footy player there for sure..

Hahahaha ahhh the Sharps fans are blaming the refs for getting absolutely flogged in the Sharks forum... It's so good to see

Most of them are also saying they’ll flog us in the finals. LOL jeez that’s confidence. We’d put our hands up and say we shouldn’t play finals if we played like they didn’t in the 2nd half today.

Nicho being out is no excuse for that defence.
