Match Discussion: Round 4 vs Cronulla @ PointsBet Stadium

[NoSchitSherlock]

They have structure in attack while we are hunting what to do.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Ponga wasn't ready for the (c). Should be Gags.

How long does Clifford get for that high shot? Yes it was high speed... but it was pretty ugly too.

His arm was way low.

 

[Jono078]

Ponga making Hoy look like Robbie O out there. Imagine that we could've had Hynes and say Burton for Pongas money. He ought to be ashamed and I'm not only talking about today. His whole career thus far has been totally overblown. Won nothing, proven nothing.

This is probably what shits me most. Hynes I'm not too fussed because there were huge question marks.. But Burton looks a special talent and breathes footy. He is the type we should take a punt on with Pearce (or even Ponga's) money.

 

[Johns Magic]

We’ve been shocking. Good on the Sharks

 

[Yosh]

Meters gained 893 VS 545 to the Sharks. Did we really have the breeze? Saifiti need to earn their paycheck in the next 40 minutes or they should donate this week's pay.

Yep, they looks like a team that is ready to make an impression on the NRL this year. Credit to them. They play exciting too.

 

[Spot On]

Mmm this hurts.. Could argue he inherited a better side, but today it's not about that.. Today is clearly attitude.

Very lucky to be only 8 points down. AOB has a big speech coming up..

I however, to be realistic, think this second half will be super dooper ugly for us.

Sharks 44-4.

Fitzgibbon has his side playing hard AND smart.

They have been great each week but importantly they are also improving each week.

Too big and strong for us atm.

We should be down by 20 or so.

Up the effort and we can turn it around.

 

[Yosh]

Burton would be amazing partnering Clifford. The bombs the two lads can put up would be spectacular.

 

[macavity]

We aren’t in this. 28-0 coming up

I would swap Ponga for Burton with no cash our way for sure. At this point the only people who rate Ponga are in the media. He's at genuine risk of failing to fulfil the biggest potential I can think of.

I would too mate. Bulldogs did an incredible job landing Burton. I was super high on him.

 

[Loose Cannon]

Absolutely embarrassing 1/2 of football. 18 point wind behind us, yet 8 down.
Saifiti x2 and Ponga particularly useless.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

How many errors between the Safs and Ponga this half?

 

[Mr_Knightside]

Only one team playing footy so far

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Need a complete attitude change here more than anything else.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Why does Ponga either stand behind the ruck or get into dummy half? He doesn't want to get involved does he? Absolute passenger. Darius Boyd would be proud.

 

[Old School]

Have been saying it for ages, suddenly people are starting to realise Ponga is a total pea heart " Cat of all time"

A lot of us have known for a long time but the promise of his undeniable talent kept us hopeful.

 

[PhilGould]

Frizell been our best with daylight second

 

[slotmachine]

Why is ponga throwing 20m passes inside the 15m that lose us ground?

Just run it back hard you cat
