Prelim.. Sat night or Sun arvo?

[carcharias]

Just had it confirmed from NRL related source it will be Fri night Sept 23 @ Allianz

Really?
Ok

Besides the injuries how will we bounce back after week off..from memory our games after a rest this year have been pretty ordinary. ..the age-old question of a week off good or bad i suppose

I think we really need the week of and will benefit from it.

 

[Card Shark]

In the hectic world of NRL, a week off this time of year is a godsend.

 

[carcharias]

Our blokes looked like pros last night
We'll be fine

 

[Card Shark]

Was thinking the same thing.

In days gone by, it may not be a good thing but with the old heads (& bodies) in our team, it wont bother us,

 

[Weaponhead]

The preliminary final will be against a qld team in Sydney. Neither cows now broncs travel that well and we will be rested and ready to go. Good position to be in.

 

[carcharias]

Hope we score one on the 7th tackle

 

[spirit of league]

After this weekends games, I'm completely sold out. I'm bringing in an extra shift of 8 year old kids to help me catch up.

Just remember 300ml of red Cottees at play-lunch is proven to increase their productivity by 12 %

 

[Feki is bae]

We have a few bumps and bruises, weekend off will do us the world of good. Bird and Feki are not 100% never mind the boys that didn't play v Canberra. We will be sitting around with our feet up laughing at the other sides bashing each other hopefully in a violent and keenly fought extra-time game.

Weekend off has not really worked in the Sharks favour, since...forever..tin foil hat please.

 

[Snoop Shark]

The good teams can always win with the week off. It's an excuse that looks like it's already being used incase we lose. If we are good enough we will win. No easy games from here on in

 

[Feki is bae]

I fear the cows a lot more. Broncos are more grinding and cows can do that but can also explode from anywhere.

 

[Snoop Shark]

The draw has been released for the second week and we are playing on the Friday night at Allianz

 

[Arnold]

Yeah not an ideal time in my opinion. Might keep the crowd down.

We will wait and see.

Dunno about that - remember the last pre-Lim being that fateful night v Melbourne when we got hammered. Place was so packed with sharks fans it put the team off and they lose their way.
I can only see plenty of black white and blue again. If the date is confirmed the club would already be working overtime on getting this to be massive

 

[Arnold]

I remember all too well.

Was that a Friday?

 

[shaggs]

I remember all too well.

Was that a Friday?

Yeah it was. The Greg bird glassing year. Blake green got smoked in the opening minute and then Folau scored of a kick. All down after that.

We are used to playing with bigger crowds now.

 

[lolesi]

Anyone who thinks the week off is bad/ruins momentum is kidding themselves.

We have a few blokes busted arm and it's an absolute blessing to rest up for next Friday..

Let Cowboys and Broncos bash each other and we can sit back and enjoy some kind of delicious non alcoholic spritzaaaa.

Friday night will be huge, straight in after work. We will dwarf either teams supporter base. Should be massive.

Weekend off will be good for us. Time to rest up Wade, Gal and get Chad's head right after being hooked.

Also playing Friday will give us an extra day to rest and prepare should we progress.

Up Up!
