Without Noddy and Stevo = possible shellacking.

With Stevo and Noddy = still underdogs and possible further injury to Noddy.

kent is so much more than a borderline winger. i admit we havnt played great footy the last few weeks. but he has never played half before and now he's playin it in the nrl,. i think he is doing a fine job and deserves a spot in the side.
his ability to adapt just shows me he could be a brilliant player - and the sharks MUST resign him!!

He is more than a border line winger.

He is borderline first grade in every backline position.

We have missed Noddy terribly , but who wouldn't miss a half of his talent.
Our kicking is shocking.
Did we kick away from thje Bris backs at all ? It just seemed we kicked straight to them and let them run up to us. They dropped three back from tackle 4 and we couldn't put it past them.
NO URGENCY.
Look at the cowgirls and how well they kick chase. THEY LOOK like a side that wants to be in the eight.

Kent is learning and we need him this yaer and next.
We need Noddy to give the boy as much help as pos off the track.
I mean who wouldn't improve with the 2nd best half in the world as a private tutor.
Much like Simmons(who is playing well under a lot of pressure lately), Kent will benefit ENORMOUSLY from another pre season.

It is a well known stat that when you do a hammy the chances of it recurring skyrocket so Jas needs the time to learn cause we are going to need him.

I have said it several times before- Raper got punted TWICE from coaching posisitions in Eng.. He has a lot to learn still that IS OBVIOUS.
He is travelling OK with a limited roster but he still needs to pay attention to detail which for mine he doesn't do well enough for a premiership coach- hopefully yet.

He left Castleford for big money after taking them from the relegation zone to being a contender, he was not pushed out. And at Wigan he took them to victory in the challenge cup and was only pushed out before he quit because they new he was planning on coming back to the Sharks. If he had of been planning on staying at Wigan they would have given him another contract.

Everyone seems to have forgotten how bad Noddys kicking can be! Shure he is the best we have and one of the best in the game at the moment . Unfortunately I hold him up to Mitch Healy . Jason Kent I belive could have a fine kicking game . It would be interesting to see Kent and Kimmorly as the halves.
