Sharks lend a hand at "the biggest loser"

Sharks skipper Brett Kimmorley, winger Luke Covell, five eighth Adam Dykes and 2006 Player of the Year Greg Bird ventured out to Narrabeen prior to Christmas to help conduct a training session for the contestants on the Channel 10 show The Biggest Loser.

The Sharks quartet assisted the show's American trainers in a rugby league style session, with the contestants hitting tackle bags and going through a couple of drills regularly used at rugby league training.

The show which was attended by the Sharks is due to air during the first couple of weeks of the Biggest Loser going to air in 2007. Sharks Bites and the Sharks website www.sharks.com.au will keep all Sharks fans informed as to a date and time of the airing of the segment featuring the four Sharks players.

jesus the irony is not lost on me, with Dykes AND Kimmorley together we could definitely teach them a thing or 10 about losing.

I know "there's no such thing as bad publicity" but this is really pushing it.

Never watched that show but i've seen the ads. The 'contestants' look like they would have a heart attack if they did rugby league drills.

geezuz christ!

I wonder which brainiac decided to let The Sharks be part of a show called "The Biggest Loser"?

I remember them doing adds for the Syd Aquarium when they were going great guns.
Then when the team turned to shyte they redid the adds.
The gist of the new adds was us copping a bagging.

Why the fug can't they just win a few games to get a profile for a change.

Our new "Queen" of the hive is in charge of the collective now. The Raper "Queen" is dead.

If the Dykes and Kimmorley drones don't perform together, one or both WILL be eliminated from the team!

Hahaha i'm pissin myself here, I first thought "Hey, what a good idea" exposure for Sharkies. But yeah, you're right - Why in the hell would you get involved with a show called "The Biggest Loser" when your trying to become a winning team. Just stupidity.
