Round 11 v Cronulla, Sharks Stadium, Mon 27/5 7pm

[Big Sam]

So Cronulla again. We're looking for our second 5-match winning streak of the season whilst they are in solid recent form.

I wonder if Gallen and Lewis will sit it out as a precaution for NSW.

Also Daley names the NSW team the night before (Sunday week) and in a perverse way I'm hoping Sutto and Max won't be picked because they'll be even more fired up to prove a point.

This game will be decided by 12 points maximum, going to be a great contest.

Sharks always seem to aim up against us at Toyota, great place to go but i can't seem to understand why we're always playing them on Monday nights :\

And another thing does anyone think Walker will back up or will Hunt play on the wing?

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

Well, fox want the games and get second pick for MNF.

Souths and sharks rated really well last year in both Fox games.

Gordon will be out with a calf injury.
I'd say Gardz gets the call up.

Will be interesting if we play the same attacking brand of footy with Gallen back.

 

[Newcastlerabbit]

Massive game,cannot wait.

 

[southsport]

Tough game this one with the sharks on the field seemingly shaking off the season's problems.........will Madge go with Walker again?

 

[Zigwaa]

A danger game for Souths. Sharks always play well at home against us.

Do QLD announce on Monday night at halftime or Tuesday?

Tuesday - I'm guessing it's because the team is so settled they don't need as much time as NSW to prepare.

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

so what happens with NSW?

say carney, max, sutton etc get picked do they get to play?

 

[Big Sam]

Yes. I assume the team will go into camp Monday minus any Cronulla and Souths selections who will join the following day.

 

[Fiddy]

After such brutal games lately (Minus the tigers game) i am happy we got the 10 day turn around. Esp coming off a big win against what was barely an NRL side hopefully the natural "high" and big noting has dropped off by monday night and we get back into the grove of it all

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

After the recovery session on Friday, Madge gave the boys the rest of the weekend off. This didn't sit well with the boys so they organised their own training session at Redfern on Sunday. Apparently it was one of the toughest sessions of the year with a few of the boys throwing up afterwards.

A great attitude the players have, but if players were throwing up afterwards I'm wondering if the session was a bit too tough and could it have a negative affect?

 

[Big Sam]

Same team that started last week, with George B in the front row and Walker in the centres.

Bench is Peats, Clark, Lowe, Lima, Tyrrell.

It's a longgg turn around and we weren't really pushed last week. Great attitude of the team!

 

[Big Sam]

Anybody know where the Burrow is usually positioned at Cronulla? Is it on the hill?

Haven't watched us down there since 2009 so I've forgotten.

Walker stays in the team.

 

[Zigwaa]

Goodwin has been doing so well at centre, he deserves to stay there. Put Walker on the wing.

 

[rabbitohs95]

Dunno bout Walker at centre and Goodwin on the wing, but i'm sure they'll switch sometime during the match

Would probably be better with Jeff starting and George bringing impact off the bench but in madge we trust

 

[t10do]

Yeah. Especially as The Sharks don't have the smallest centres in the world. But wow, what a week for the kid. Didn't think we would see him in first grade this week.

Looking forward to this game. The sharks for me have been disappointing considering their roster. Heading into this with caution.

On the topic of wingers, has Hunt been named in the bears team. Is he injured (hence the Walker call up)?

 

[Ziggy the God]

My Sharkies mate offered me to go sit with him in a box.

Pissed that I can't make Monday night games. :x

Should be tough match against their boys, always the case.
