Minute to win it

Frozen in fear during that last 50 secs. Then every emotion that a human is capable of feeling hit me like a shovel in the face.

I'm still a little numb over it all.

Also if Smith hadn't cut out Harris and played it through the hands I reckon Blair would've got there.

Smith was in two minds he was really considering kicking to Vunivalu who was primed for it but Ennis was set back and he new the kick wasn't on. I only noticed that when watching the replay.

The last fiddy seconds, never in doubt. Was I worried, never.

Crikey when have we ever lost a game in the last minutes of play.

I've gone into pre prepared auto respond Cameron Smith style when talking about this game now.
Whilst all I know are happy for me , it seems that to them, Melbourne were coming for us. We should have scored more early, Fafita try was lucky, the penalties cost the storm, & Chambers lost melbourne the game.
I even see a bit of that in here.
Well far cough.
Melbourne scrambled like green ants for the first 30 minutes when we absolutely toasted them. We were coming for them & their scramble defence stopped us.
In the end, they werent good enough. Our scramble defense & superior fitness stopped them & bustled them into making incorrect decisions.
We were good enough, they weren't.
& they deserve no credit for losing to us, or their stupid speeches.

Absolutely...

Leutele basically won it with the final tackle under immense pressure.

Whilst it was awesome that he stopped it, he also missed a tackle that allowed them to advance so far up field before they chucked it left.

Anyway, all added to the drama!

You can see in that video, I was crying from before they packed the scrum. The whole last 5 minutes I reckon. We were so close! And then... relief.

If you didnt tear up, your not human, or you dont have enough emotional investment in the Sharks as others.
Footage of the 2 greatest Sharks ever hugging & crying & I still lose it.

Classic video Poss......Love the "wrap up the kaarrnntts". Think I said exactly the same thing. Ironic thing is while the Sharks have given us a lifetime of grief and misery they have now given us all a memory that will last a lifetime also!
