ASADA had nothing to do with it. All that bs and the emotional response was vented in the Sharks big win over the Warriors last week.
And the scum players even gave themselves up.We were really behind the 8 ball with the referees tonite. We threw one genuine forward pass all game and were called back for a number of fair passes. The tackle that injured Carney was at least a metre for ward to him, the worst forward pass all night and not blown! It was as if the refs seemed to be looking to hit us with rubbish penalties. The one where Gallen got tackled and then got up pushed forward low under our marker was so obviously milked it was embarassing.
What about Luke Lewis drop it cold getting up then soccered the ball forward, chased it then heeled it back.. er play on. Nighty was tackled and grabbed before he could get a catch on the ball during that try opportunity in the 1st half off the Soward kick.
I hope the club really dishes it out in the match report and protests. That was ordinary tonite and we deserve better. Phew! Otherwise I am happy.
lol. Sorry saint.nick. Makes sense now.I know, it was just great chanting that in the army the whole night.
lol. Sorry saint.nick. Makes sense now.
lol. Some things never change.All good! A few sharks teenagers responded by hurling abuse at us for a minute, until a few of our own rushed down to have a swing. Poor sharks bastards were the only ones kicked out :lol:
It will be interesting to see if the guys can play tough 2 games in a row. Pretty sure we are at home. Big chance to beat the Knights.
Massive improvement from last week. Some crap calls by the ref, and a period of 5 minutes in the second half we're our marker defence was non-existent...I think shortly after that fifita scored. Our backs jumped in really well in the go forward too. Good signs!
No it wasn't. We've shown signs of this since round one.
The main difference tonight was that the team stuck to game plan for the entire 80 minutes.
Not too different to the game plan that we saw in the first half in round two. More offloads, more backs taking the first hit ups, more fast ruck movements up the middle.
To say it was from 'left field' shows that you haven't been watching.
The turning point came at around the 62-63 minute. You tell me what happened then.
