Sharks have fallen off from their really good form, so I think we might head into this one as favourites.

Cronulla provide a step up in class from our previous opponent, I look forward to the test.

 

[Geohood]

Can't hold my excitement for this game..... bahahaha...

 

[Monk]

I have a feeling it'll be a soccer scoreline type of game.

sammy doesnt play we're done for.

Who on here doesnt love the bloke. We usually play like shit against sharks, bit of luck we'll be on a lift from last week and give it to em.
Oh and brian for god sake leave justin carney where he is if any of the other blokes don't pull through

 

[adamkungl]

game day...here's hoping the boys finish the last month of the season with some respect

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Get spanked today and SOS Todd.

No Merge wankers 'round, the tranquility.

 

[adamkungl]

How good was that

2 wins in a row...nice comeback. Gal got smacked. JWH and Mose smashing pricks all day. And the crowd went off! Very good atmosphere on the chookpen side despite only 8800, loved it!

 

[Cliffhanger]

J Carney was not bad today, I am a little worried about our lack of creativity in the halves, Anasta and Pearce in the halves for a whole season could be a disaster for us. But the efforts from the guys was awesome today, my heart was still in my mouth whenever SKD had the ball though.

Takainrangi gets better each week and Jake Friend seems to have got rid of all the floors in his attacking game.

 

[adamkungl]

I don't understand why we NEVER grubber? Variety guys!

Our halves are the best they've been all year (which isn't saying a lot). Carney hasn't played well since September. But for now Anasta is proving to be a far more effective option.

 

[howardjones]

JWH should have been marched and probably cost himself a 4 nations spot with another trademark act of thuggery.

Oh blow it out of your arse dickhead, it looked a lot worse than it was and these things happen in matches of that intensity, we love the fact all you idiots hate JWH, makes him that much more valuable.

He's got mongrel and you have that you get carried away sometimes, he's the next Morley.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Jarred must be re-signed.

We're in the poop shute without Carney

Jake Friend is Rooster of the year

How many minutes did Cordner get? Seemed to spend a lot of time on the bench

The back row is looking great just swap Aubo for FPN next year
