Really great new episode of the Sharkcast.

In Riccio lays it out cold for us.
Very grounding information.

We are a while away yet.
And did you notice no letter episode, I have a guy feel as it would have been smashing the players and coaching staff

The Philippine connection would have ripped Moyza a new one, even though he didn’t play.

Riccio made a lot of sense. Take out Wade, finucane, McInnes and Moyza, we are out experienced by the tigers

He did say Finucane is staying another year.
Ramien has about 120 games experience.
2016 Sharks side was most experienced team ever to win a comp.
It would be interesting to see how much experience the Panthers of 2021 compared to sharks 2023 in experience

Tremendous ep. Great unemotional reality from Riccio. Not sure where we go from here but the view of thinking they can get more from the current stock is interesting. When he talks props being pairs it goes back to a point I keep banging on about - How many games have Toby/BHU played together this year?

Riccio is the star of 360 these days too just quietly.

Uele hasn't played 20 plus games now since 2020,
2021 - 19
2022 - 17
2023 - 13

He has also dropped off as a try scorer in 2019-20 he scored 10 tries.
From 2021 to current just 4

Just had a look at stats for BHU, Toby, Royce and Finucane.

Toby’s missed 10 games, the others 5 each.

That’s a fair chunk of the season with at least three of the top pack missing.

No wonder we’re struggling.

Always enjoy the Riccio Sharkcast eps. Don’t always agree with everyone, but he gives a decent opinion that isn’t condescending or controversial for the sake of controversy.

Listened on the podcast on train coming back from the city post a terrible work day, it was insightful and pretty honest. Fairly fitting really.
I feel for Sam, he sounded bloody defeated and clutching at straws. Don’t know how he fronts up each week, especially dealing with his mail bag.
Just keep moving forward people

Moving forward, problem is there is an oncoming train coming at us

Maybe.
All I know is, nothing comes easy in this world for most of us. Looking back on last year to now, they are definitely getting some hard lessons. Adversity ain’t great but it’s character building
Got some more tonight. It's a pity they don't seem to retain the lessons and make any improvement
